    DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF VARIOUS EMBODIMENTS

    [0027] Embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings:

    Embodiment 1

    [0028] FIGS. 1-3 illustrate a diaphragm assembly structure according to embodiment 1 of the present invention. In the present embodiment, a diaphragm base layer is a single polymer material layer, and a middle portion of a diaphragm is a diaphragm base layer.

    [0029] As shown in FIGS. 1-3, the diaphragm assembly comprises a diaphragm 1, wherein the diaphragm 1 comprises a middle portion 3 and a surround portion 2 which encircles the periphery of the middle portion 3. The diaphragm assembly further comprises a reinforcing portion 4 arranged in the middle of the diaphragm 1. The reinforcing portion 4 is integrated to an upper side or a lower side of the middle portion 3 and is generally of a single-layer structure or multi-layer structure composed of polyether ether ketone (PEEK), thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer (TPU) or other polymer materials.

    [0030] The diaphragm 1 comprises a diaphragm base layer 5 and a silica gel layer 6 integrated to the surface of the surround portion 2. The diaphragm base layer 5 is a single polymer material layer which may be specifically composed of any one selected from a group including polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyethylene naphthalate (PEN), polyether ether ketone (PEEK), polyetherimide (PEI), polyphenylene sulfide (PPS), polyarylate (PAR) and thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer (TPU). The silica gel layer 6 is formed by injection molding with any of the polymer material layers described above. It should be noted that, in specific implementation, the diaphragm base layer is not limited to the materials described above, and other polymer materials may be selected as the diaphragm base layer 5.

    [0031] In the present embodiment, the middle portion 3 is a diaphragm base layer 5, that is, the silica gel layer 6 is integrated to only the surface of the surround portion 2, and the middle portion 3 is still of a polymer material layer structure.

    [0032] Preferably, the silica gel layer 6 is liquid silica gel which has relatively strong fluidity and can be directly formed by injection molding.

    [0033] Preferably, the silica gel layer 4 is integrated to an upper side surface and/or a lower side surface of the surround portion 2, that is to say, in specific implementation, the silica gel layer 6 may be integrated to the upper side surface of the surround portion 2, or may be integrated to the lower side surface of the surround portion 2, or may be integrated to both the upper side surface and the lower side surface of the surround portion 2, all of which can achieve the effects of the technical solution.

    [0034] In the present embodiment, the surround portion 2 is of a shape of a racetrack, including two long shaft portions 21 and arc-shaped portions 22 connecting the two long shaft portions. The silica gel layer 6 is integrated to a surface of the long shaft portions 21 and/or the arc-shaped portions 22. That is to say, the silica gel layer 6 may be integrated with the long shaft portions, or may be integrated with the arc-shaped portions 22, or may also be integrated with both the long shaft portions 21 and the arc-shaped portions 22, all of which can achieve the effects of the technical solution.

    [0035] It should be noted that the technical solution is applicable not only to the racetrack-shaped surround portion structure as shown in the present embodiment, but also to a rectangular surround portion structure and other different shapes of the surround portion structures. For example, when the silica gel layer is integrated to the surface of the rectangular surround portion, the silica gel layer 6 may be also integrated to the upper side surface of the rectangular surround portion, or may be integrated to the lower side surface thereof, or may be integrated to both the upper side surface and the lower side surface. The silica gel layer 6 may be integrated with long shaft portions of the rectangular surround portions, or may be integrated with short shaft portions, or may be integrated with both the long shaft portions and the short shaft portions, all of which do not affect the implementation of the technical solution.

    [0036] Preferably, the polymer material layer has a thickness of 3-100 μm; the silica gel layer has a thickness of 20-200 μm.

    [0037] With the technical solution described above, after the silica gel layer 6 is integrated to the surface of the surround portion 2, the compliance of the diaphragm 1 is improved, and the adaptability to temperature and the chemical stability of the diaphragm 1 per se during working can be improved, which is simultaneously beneficial to increase the damping property of the surround portion and to effectively adjust the acoustic parameters, so as to optimize the product's acoustic performance.

    Embodiment 2

    [0038] FIG. 4 illustrates the second embodiment of the diaphragm of the present invention, which is basically the same as embodiment 1. The difference therebetween lies in that: the middle portion 3 of the diaphragm 1 is of a composite structure of the diaphragm base layer 5 and the silica gel layer 6, that is, the silica gel layer 6 is integrated to both the surfaces of the surround portion 2 and the middle portion 3 by injection molding.

    Embodiment 3

    [0039] FIG. 5 illustrates the third embodiment of the diaphragm of the present invention, which is basically the same as embodiment 1. The difference therebetween lies in that: the diaphragm base layer 5′ is a two-layer polymer material layer, including a polyether ether ketone (PEEK) material layer 7 and a thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer (TPU) material layer 8. It should be pointed out that the polymer material layers are not limited to the two material layers described above, and may also be composed of any two materials selected from a group including polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyethylene naphthalate (PEN), polyether ether ketone (PEEK), polyetherimide (PEI), polyphenylene sulfide (PPS), polyarylate (PAR), thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer (TPU). It should be noted that, in a specific implementation, the diaphragm base layer 5′ is not limited to the materials described above, and other polymer materials may be used as the diaphragm base layer.

    [0040] As shown in FIG. 5, an adhesive layer 9 is arranged between the polyether ether ketone layer 7 and the thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer material layer 8 and used for adhesively fixing the two polymer material layers. In the present embodiment, the silica gel layer 6 may be compounded with the polyether ether ketone material layer 7, or may be compounded with the thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer material layer 8, or may be compounded with both the polyether ether ketone material layer 7 and the thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer material layer 8.

    [0041] It should be noted that the technical solution of the present disclosure can be applied not only to the diaphragm base layer compounded by the two polymer material layers described above, but also to a multilayer structure of two or more layers, wherein the multiple polymer material layers may be specifically composed of any number of polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyethylene naphthalate (PEN), polyether ether ketone (PEEK), polyetherimide (PEI), polyether imide (PEI), Polyphenylene sulfide (PPS), polyarylate (PAR), thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer (TPU). Similarly, the multiple polymeric material layers are not limited to the materials described above, and in specific implementation, may be embodied in a variety of other polymer material layers. The adjacent polymer material layers are adhesively fixed by the adhesive layer 9, and the silica gel layer 6 is integrated with the multiple polymer material layers by injection molding.

Rather, any equivalent modifications or changes made by those of ordinary skill in the art according to the contents of the present invention shall all fall within the scope of the claims.
