(13) Referring to
(14) The magnet system 2 comprises an inner magnetic ring 21 and an outer magnetic ring 22 sleeved on an exterior of the inner magnetic ring 21, the inner magnetic ring 21 is coaxial with the outer magnetic ring 22, a gap 33 is provided between an inner annular surface of the outer magnetic ring 22 and an outer annular surface of the inner magnetic ring 21, wherein the inner annular surface and the outer annular surface have opposite magnetic polarities, and magnetic flux lines formed in the gap 33 by the outer magnetic ring 22 and the inner magnetic ring 21 are radially disposed, that is, radial magnetic flux lines are formed.
(15) The vibration system 3 comprises a voice diaphragm 31, a voice coil 32 having one end connected to the voice diaphragm 31, and a winding 34 connected to another end of the voice coil 32, the winding 34 is disposed in the gap 33, and the voice diaphragm 31 is connected to one end of the horn bracket 1.
(16) In the present embodiment, radial magnetic flux lines are formed in the gap 33 between the inner magnetic ring 21 and the outer magnetic ring 22 by radially magnetizing the inner magnetic ring 21 and the outer magnetic ring 22 under the action of the magnetizing device. The inner annular surface of the outer magnetic ring 22 and the outer annular surface of the inner magnetic ring 21 have opposite magnetic polarities. The outer annular surface of the inner magnetic ring 21 and the inner annular surface of the outer magnetic ring 22 are parallel to each other and parallel to the axis. As such, uniform and symmetrical radial magnetic flux lines are formed in the gap 33; that is, an annular radial magnetic field is formed. One end of the voice coil 32 is fixedly connected to the voice diaphragm 31, another end of the voice coil 32 is connected to the winding 34, the winding 34 receives the audio signal transmitted from the audio device, the winding 34 is inserted in the gap 33, and an electromagnetic induction is generated by varying signals inputted through the winding 34 and the uniform and symmetrical radial magnetic field in the gap 33. According to the principle of the left-hand rule, a drive force with different amplitudes and along the axis will be generated to ensure that the winding 34 can make a linear reciprocating motion in the radial magnetic field, thereby reducing the vibration of the vibration system 3 and ensuring the true reproduction of sound, thus converting electrical audio signals into sound signals. Furthermore, in the present embodiment, the design of the conventional pole core and the lower magnetic conducting plate is eliminated, and the design of the conductive plate of conventional low-carbon steel is replaced by the magnet. The speaker is normally applied to the headphone, but not limited to the headphone. The inner magnetic ring 21 and the outer magnetic ring 22 are magnetized by radial magnetization of the inner magnetic ring 21 and the outer magnetic ring 22, and uniform and symmetrical radial magnetic flux lines are formed in the gap 33 such that the voice coil 32 is only subjected to an axial force to drive the voice diaphragm 31 to vibrate to improve the authenticity of the audio effect output by the speaker, improving the user experience. Therefore, the design of the magnet system 2 reduces leakage and hysteresis losses, ensures uniform and symmetrical distribution of magnetic flux lines, reduces distortion, and realizes reproduction of true sound.
(17) Further, the winding 34 is formed by winding a wire on the outer sidewall of one end of the voice coil 32, and an important parameter of the winding 34 is a winding amplitude indicating the width of the winding. In the present embodiment, the entire winding is placed in the gap 33.

The outer ring diaphragm 312 is fixed on one end surface of the horn bracket 1, wherein, the middle ring diaphragm 313 has a circular arc opening facing the voice coil 32. In this way, the voice coil 32 can drive the middle ring diaphragm 313 to generate elastic deformation, which in turn causes the middle ring diaphragm 313 to vibrate, and by virtue of the middle ring diaphragm 313 having a circular arc shape and the hollow inner ring diaphragm 311, the deformation and vibration are realized and the audio signals are transmitted. The middle ring diaphragm 313 is provided on its surface facing the voice coil 32 with a plurality of stiffeners 314 that are in a strip shape and are distributed divergently and uniformly from the inner ring diaphragm 311 to the outer ring diaphragm 312, and one end of the voice coil 32 is fixed to the middle ring diaphragm 313. The stiffener 314 increases the rigidity of the voice diaphragm 31 as well as improves audio, thereby improving the quality of the product used to output the audio. The voice coil 32 is bonded to the surface of the middle ring diaphragm 313 through a high-temperature-resistant and strong-adhesion glue. An electromagnetic induction is generated by varying signals input through the winding 34 and the radial magnetic field in the gap 33. As a result, a drive force with different amplitudes and along the axis will be generated and driving the vibration system 3 reciprocates a linear motion, which will convert electrical audio signals into sound signals. The voice diaphragm 31 is formed by forming a single layer film of any new type of polymer material (such as Polyethylene terephthalate (PET), Polyether ether ketone (PEEK), Poly (ADP-ribose) (PAR) and Polyethylenimine (PEI), etc.) and adding a titanium coating to increase the rigidity of the voice diaphragm 31 and thereby extending the high frequency.
