Speaker diaphragm and speaker using the same
View Patent ↗A speaker diaphragm 1 includes a first diaphragm portion 5 , a second diaphragm portion 6 integrally molded with the first diaphragm portion 5 , and a bobbin-receiving portion 7 protruding from a back side of a connecting portion between the first diaphragm portion 5 and the second diaphragm portion 6 , with one end of a voice coil bobbin 2 being bonded to the bobbin-receiving portion 7 . The bobbin-receiving portion 7 includes a first extension 8 extending backwards from the first diaphragm portion 5 and a second extension 9 extending backwards from the second diaphragm portion 6 . A bobbin-receiving groove 10 is defined between the first extension 8 and the second extension 9 . The voice coil bobbin 2 is inserted in and bonded to the bobbin-receiving groove 10.
1. A speaker diaphragm, comprising a first diaphragm portion, a second diaphragm portion integrally molded with the first diaphragm portion, and a bobbin-receiving portion protruding from a back side of a connecting portion between the first diaphragm portion and the second diaphragm portion, with one end of a voice coil bobbin being inserted in and attached to the bobbin-receiving portion, wherein the first diaphragm portion and the second diaphragm portion are obtained by impregnating a substrate with a thermosetting resin, and the bobbin-receiving portion is obtained as the thermosetting resin cures so that the bobbin-receiving portion is made only of the thermosetting resin.
2. The speaker diaphragm according to claim 1 , wherein the bobbin-receiving portion includes a first extension extending backwards from the first diaphragm portion and a second extension extending backwards from the second diaphragm portion, thereby defining a bobbin-receiving groove between the first extension and the second extension, with the voice coil bobbin being inserted in and bonded to the bobbin-receiving groove.
3. The speaker diaphragm according to claim 1 , wherein the thermosetting resin is an unsaturated polyester resin.
4. The speaker diaphragm according to claim 3 , wherein a material of the substrate is a polyethylene naphthalate fiber.
5. The speaker diaphragm according to claim 1 , wherein an internal loss ratio between the bobbin-receiving portion and the first diaphragm portion is 3:1 to 1.2:1.
6. A speaker, comprising a speaker diaphragm including a first diaphragm portion, a second diaphragm portion integrally molded with the first diaphragm portion, and a bobbin-receiving portion protruding from a back side of a connecting portion between the first diaphragm portion and the second diaphragm portion, with one end of a voice coil bobbin being inserted in and attached to the bobbin-receiving portion, wherein the first diaphragm portion and the second diaphragm portion are obtained by impregnating a substrate with a thermosetting resin, and the bobbin-receiving portion is obtained as the thermosetting resin cures so that the bobbin-receiving portion is made only of the thermosetting resin.
7. A method for producing a speaker diaphragm, comprising the steps of:
impregnating portions of a substrate to be a first diaphragm portion and a second diaphragm portion with a thermosetting resin;
supplying the thermosetting resin to a portion of a die for forming a bobbin-receiving portion to which one end of a voice coil bobbin is bonded; and
curing the thermosetting resin, whereby a portion of the thermosetting resin with which the first diaphragm portion and the second diaphragm portion are impregnated forms the first diaphragm portion and the second diaphragm portion, while another portion of the thermosetting resin supplied to the portion of the die for forming the bobbin-receiving portion forms the bobbin-receiving portion so that the bobbin-receiving portion is made only of the thermosetting resin.
