Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a vibration motor, comprising a housing, a vibrator, an elastic member, a first block and a second block; the elastic member comprises first elastic member and second elastic member facing toward each other and each comprises a first fixing portion, two extending portions and two second fixing portions, the first fixing portion is fixed on the first surface, the two extending portion extend from the first fixing portion along two opposite directions and surrounds the second surface, the two second fixing portions are fixed on the side wall away from the first fixing portion; the first block is on a side of the first fixing portion corresponding to the side wall, the second block is on the side wall, faces towards the first block and is spaced from the first block. The second block is adjacent to the second fixing portion and is between the two second fixing portions.

Claims (16)

1. A vibration motor, comprising:

a housing comprising a side wall;

a vibrator accommodated in the housing, the vibrator comprising two first surface and two second surfaces, the two first surfaces facing the side wall along a vibrating direction of the vibrator, and the two second surfaces connecting the two first surfaces;

a driving unit accommodated in the housing;

an elastic member accommodated in the housing to elastically support the vibrator, the elastic member comprising a first elastic member and a second elastic member facing toward the first elastic member, each of the first elastic member and the second elastic member comprising a first fixing portion, an extending portion and two second fixing portions;

a first block; and

a second block;

wherein the first fixing portion is fixed on the first surface, the extending portion extends from the first fixing portion along two opposite directions facing away from one another and surrounds the two second surfaces, the two second fixing portions are connected with the extending portion and are fixed on the side wall away from the first fixing portion; the first fixing portion of the first elastic member and the first fixing portion of the second elastic member are fixed on the two first surfaces at two opposite sides of the vibrator facing away from one another, respectively;

wherein the first block is on a side of the first fixing portion corresponding to the side wall, the second block is on the side wall, faces towards the first block and is spaced from the first block, the second block is adjacent to the second fixing portions and is between the two second fixing portions.

2. The vibration motor as described in claim 1 , wherein the extending portion comprises two first extending portions, two second extending portions and two third extending portions; the two first extending portions extend from the first fixing portion along two opposite extending directions facing away from one another; the two second extending portions bend and extend from the two first extending portions and are spaced from the second surface, respectively; the two third extending portions bend and extend from the two second extending portions towards the side wall, respectively; and the two third extending portions are connected with the two second fixing portions, respectively.

3. The vibration motor as described in claim 2 , wherein the vibrator comprises a weight and a magnet, the weight defines a through hole, the magnet is disposed in the through hole, the driving unit comprises a coil facing toward the magnet, and the two first surfaces and the two second surfaces are on the weight.

4. The vibration motor as described in claim 3 , wherein the weight comprises a fixing stage on each of the two first surfaces, and the fixing stage matches the first fixing portion.

5. The vibration motor as described in claim 4 , wherein the weight further defines two avoiding portion at two sides of the fixing stage, and the two avoiding portions are recessed towards a direction away from the side wall, and the two avoiding portions are configured to give way to the first extending portion and the third extending portion.

6. The vibration motor as described in claim 4 , wherein the first fixing portion is fixed with the fixing stage by welding.

7. The vibration motor as described in claim 6 , wherein the second fixing portion is fixed with the side wall by welding.

8. The vibration motor as described in claim 3 , further comprising a third block at a side of the second fixing portion opposite to the vibrator.
