Abstract

An audio resonance vibrator includes a yoke defining a bottom and a sidewall extending vertically from the bottom, an elastic frame cooperatively with the yoke forming a housing defining a receiving space, a magnet disposed on the bottom of the yoke cooperatively with the sidewall of yoke forming a magnetic gap, a vibrating unit accommodated in the receiving space defining a vibrating plate and a coil assembly connected with the vibrating plate. The coil assembly is at least partially received in the magnetic gap, and the vibrating plate is positioned on the elastic frame. The audio resonance vibrator further includes an elastic member interposed between the magnet and the vibrating plate to support the magnet.

Claims (15)

1. An audio vibration exciter, comprising:

an yoke defining a bottom and a sidewall;

an elastic frame cooperatively with the yoke forming a housing defining a receiving space;

a magnet disposed on the bottom of the yoke cooperatively with the sidewall of yoke forming a magnetic gap;

a vibrating unit accommodated in the receiving space defining a vibrating plate and a coil assembly connected with the vibrating plate, the coil assembly at least partially received in the magnetic gap, the vibrating plate positioned on elastic frame; wherein

an elastic member is interposed between the magnet and the vibrating plate to support the magnet.

2. The audio vibration exciter as described in claim 1 , wherein a pole plate is mounted on the magnet, the elastic member is located between the pole plate and the vibrating plate, with two ends thereof connecting with the pole plate and the vibrating plate.

3. The audio vibration exciter as described in claim 2 , wherein the elastic frame defines a bottom wall, a side wall extending vertically from the bottom, and a supporting portion extending inwardly from the sidewall along a direction parallel to the bottom wall of the elastic frame.

4. The audio vibration exciter as described in claim 3 , wherein the elastic frame further defines a plurality of projections extending from the supporting portion for supporting the yoke.

5. The audio vibration exciter as described in claim 3 , wherein the vibrating plate defines a body and a plurality of branches extending from the body along a direction parallel to the body, the edge of the branches at least partially sandwiched between the bottom wall of the elastic frame and the supporting portion of the elastic frame.

6. The audio vibration exciter as described in claim 5 , wherein the coil assembly includes a coil and a bobbin wrapped by the coil.

7. The audio vibration exciter as described in claim 5 , wherein the vibrating plate serves as a printed circuit board.

8. An audio vibration system, comprising:

a resonant medium;

an audio vibration exciter as described in claim 1 , disposed on the resonant medium for driving the resonant medium to vibrate so as to generate sound.
