Abstract

This application provides a combination phase plug, and a compression driver and a speaker using same. The combination phase plug of this application includes a first phase plug and a second phase plug. The second phase plug is located under the first phase plug. The first phase plug includes a cone, a plurality of first fins, and a plurality of second fins. The first fins and the second fins are located on an outer surface of the cone in a staggered manner. A first gap exists between any first fin and a second fin adjacent to the first fin. The second phase plug includes a round-disc base, a combining portion, and a plurality of second gaps. The combining portion is located in the center of the round-disc base and the combining portion and the cone can be combined with each other. The second gaps are located between an outer edge of the round-disc base and the combining portion. The first gaps are respectively aligned with the second gaps to form a plurality of channels to improve the acoustic performance.

Claims (34)

1. A combination phase plug, comprising:

a first phase plug, comprising:

a cone;

a plurality of first fins, located on an outer surface of the cone; and

a plurality of second fins, located on the outer surface of the cone, wherein the first fins and the second fins are arranged staggeredly, and a first gap is provided between any adjacent first fin and second fin; and

a second phase plug, located under the first phase plug, and comprising:

a round-disc base;

a combining portion, located in the center of the round-disc base, wherein the combining portion and the cone may be combined with each other; and

a plurality of second gaps, located between an outer edge of the round-disc base and the combining portion, wherein

the first gaps are respectively aligned with the second gaps.

2. The combination phase plug according to claim 1 , wherein the combination phase plug comprises a fixing member, and the combining portion and the cone are fixed together by the fixing member.

3. The combination phase plug according to claim 1 , wherein the cone comprises a conical apex and a conical body, and the first fins and the second fins are located on the conical body.

4. The combination phase plug according to claim 1 , wherein the first fins are higher and larger than the second fins.

5. A compression driver, comprising:

a housing, having an opening;

a first phase plug, comprising:

a cone;

a plurality of first fins located on an outer surface of the cone; and

a plurality of second fins, located on the outer surface of the cone, wherein the first fins and the second fins are arranged staggeredly, and a first gap is provided between any adjacent first fin and second fin; and

a second phase plug, located under the first phase plug, and comprising:

a round-disc base;

a combining portion, located in the center of the round-disc base, wherein the combining portion and the cone can be combined with each other; and

a plurality of second gaps, located between an outer edge of the round-disc base and the combining portion, wherein

the first gaps are respectively aligned with the second gaps;

a vibrating diaphragm, located under the second phase plug; and

a magnetic circuit system, comprising a voice coil, wherein the magnetic circuit system can be powered on to generate electromagnetic induction, so that the voice coil generates a piston movement to vibrate the vibrating diaphragm vertically; and

the housing covers the first phase plug and the second phase plug, and when the vibrating diaphragm vibrates vertically, an acoustic path is formed by the first gaps and the second gaps, so that a resultant wave is output from the opening.

6. The compression driver according to claim 5 , wherein the vibrating diaphragm is an M-shaped voice diaphragm, the vibrating diaphragm comprises a reverse U-shaped fixing portion, and an upper edge of the voice coil is engaged in the reverse U-shaped fixing portion.

7. The compression driver according to claim 5 , wherein the vibrating diaphragm is an M-shaped voice diaphragm, and the vibrating diaphragm comprises at least one double recessed portion.

8. The compression driver according to claim 5 , wherein the compression driver comprises a fixing member, and the combining portion and the cone are fixed together by the fixing member.

9. The compression driver according to claim 5 , wherein the cone comprises a conical apex and a conical body, the conical apex is near the opening, the first fins and the second fins are located on the conical body, and the first fins are higher and larger than the second fins.

10. A speaker, comprising:

an exponential horn; and

the compression driver according to claim 1 , wherein the compression driver is coupled to the exponential horn.
