Diaphragm for an electroacoustic transducer, and electroacoustic transducer
View Patent ↗A diaphragm ( 6 ) for an electroacoustic transducer is preferably designed to be essentially rectangular and has a diaphragm inner region ( 20 ) for sound conversion and a diaphragm outer region ( 21 ) for attaching the diaphragm ( 6 ) and a diaphragm intermediate region ( 22 ) which lies between the diaphragm inner region ( 20 ) and the diaphragm outer region ( 21 ), wherein the diaphragm inner region ( 20 ) is delimited toward the outside by preferably rectilinear sides ( 23, 24, 25, 26 ) and the diaphragm outer region ( 21 ) is delimited toward the inside again by preferably rectilinear sides ( 31, 32, 33, 34 ), and wherein the aforementioned sides ( 23, 24, 25, 26 ) of the diaphragm inner region ( 20 ) are joined to rounded outer corner regions ( 27, 28, 29, 30 ) with a mean outer radius value R and the aforementioned sides ( 31, 32, 33, 34 ) of the diaphragm outer region ( 21 ) are joined to rounded inner corner regions ( 35, 36, 37, 38 ) with a mean inner radius value r, wherein the mean inner radius value r of each inner corner region ( 35, 36, 37, 38 ) is smaller than the mean outer radius value R of the opposite outer corner region ( 27, 28, 29, 30 ).
1. A diaphragm for an electroacoustic transducer, wherein the diaphragm has a diaphragm inner region and a diaphragm outer region and a diaphragm intermediate region which connects the diaphragm inner region and the diaphragm outer region, and wherein the diaphragm inner region is provided for converting between sound waves and electrical signals, and wherein the diaphragm outer region is provided for attaching the diaphragm, and wherein the diaphragm inner region is delimited toward the outside by a certain number of sides which adjoin the diaphragm intermediate region and between in each case two neighboring sides has a rounded outer corner region with a mean outer radius value R, and wherein the diaphragm outer region is delimited toward the inside by the same number of sides which adjoin the diaphragm intermediate region and between in each case two neighboring sides has a rounded inner corner region with a mean inner radius value r, and wherein each inner corner region lies opposite an outer corner region, and wherein the inner corner regions and the outer corner regions have the same direction of curvature, characterized in that, for the mean outer radius value R of an outer corner region, the mean inner radius value r of the opposite inner corner region lies in a range of values between
