Abstract

Provided is a bone conduction speaker unit which can sufficiently prevent generation of sound leakage at non-calling. The bone conduction speaker unit includes a bone conduction speaker main body, being incorporated in a housing with an elastic base being interposed, an elastic cover being mounted on a top face of the housing. Bonding between a rear face of the bone conduction speaker main body and a top face of the elastic base, and/or bonding between the elastic base and an inner bottom face of the housing are partially made; upon the elastic cover having been mounted on the housing, a gap is held between an internal top face of the elastic cover and a top face of the bone conduction speaker main body; and with the elastic cover being pressed in use, the internal top face thereof is abutted against the top face of the bone conduction speaker main body.

Claims (17)

1. A bone conduction speaker unit, comprising:

a bone conduction speaker main body, being incorporated in a housing with an elastic base being interposed, an elastic cover being mounted on a top face of said housing,

bonding between a rear face of said bone conduction speaker main body and a top face of said elastic base, and/or bonding between said elastic base and an inner bottom face of said housing being partially made,

upon said elastic cover having been mounted on said housing, a gap being held between an internal top face of said elastic cover and a top face of said bone conduction speaker main body, and

with said elastic cover being pressed in use, the internal top face thereof being abutted against the top face of said bone conduction speaker main body.

2. The bone conduction speaker unit according to claim 1 , wherein a portion inside of a peripheral edge part of the rear face of said bone conduction speaker main body is fixed to the top face of said elastic base.

3. The bone conduction speaker unit according to claim 1 , wherein a peripheral edge part of the rear face of said elastic base is fixed to the inner bottom face of said housing.

4. The bone conduction speaker unit according to claim 3 , wherein the peripheral edge part of the rear face of said elastic base that is bonded to the inner bottom face of said housing is consecutive.

5. The bone conduction speaker unit according to claim 3 , wherein the peripheral edge part of the rear face of said elastic base that is bonded to the inner bottom face of said housing is non-consecutive.

6. The bone conduction speaker unit according to claim 5 , wherein the inner bottom face of said housing is square or rectangular, and said elastic base has a corresponding square or rectangular shape, the peripheral portions of said elastic base that are bonded to the inner bottom face of said housing being two peripheral portions of the square or rectangle shape that are opposed to each other.

7. The bone conduction speaker unit according to claim 5 , wherein the inner bottom face of said housing is circular, and said elastic base has a corresponding circular shape, the peripheral portions of said elastic base that are bonded to the inner bottom face of said housing being two circular-arc portions which are opposed to each other.

8. The bone conduction speaker unit according to claim 3 , wherein a bonding part of said bone conduction speaker main body on the top face of said elastic base is disposed so as not to vertically overlap a bonding part of the rear face of said elastic base that is bonded to the inner bottom face of said housing.

9. The bone conduction speaker unit according to claim 3 , wherein a recess part is formed in the inner bottom face of said housing, and the rear face of said elastic base is bonded onto a peripheral face of said recess part.

10. The bone conduction speaker unit according to claim 9 , wherein said recess part is provided with a size equal to or larger than that of the rear face of said bone conduction speaker main body.

11. The bone conduction speaker unit according to claim 1 , wherein, in the internal top face of said elastic cover, there is disposed a contact which, upon said elastic cover having been pressed in use, is directly or indirectly abutted against the top face of said bone conduction speaker main body.

12. The bone conduction speaker unit according to claim 1 , wherein, in the internal top face of said elastic cover, there is disposed a thick wall part which, upon said elastic cover having been pressed in use, is directly or indirectly abutted against the top face of said bone conduction speaker main body.

13. The bone conduction speaker unit according to claim 1 , wherein, in the top face of said bone conduction speaker main body, there is disposed an elastic plate which, upon said elastic cover having been pressed in use, is abutted against the internal top face of said elastic cover.
