Abstract

A multi-function vibrating device is disclosed. The multi-function vibrating device providing sound producing and vibration functions includes a holder having a hollow space, a suspension divided into at least two parts, a vibration member suspended by the suspension and having at least a pair of receiving concaves for fixing the corresponding two parts of the suspension. The multi-function vibrating device has larger vibrating amplitude and small size.

Claims (30)

1. A multi-function vibrating device, comprising:

a holder forming a hollow space;

a suspension assembled with the holder and having at least a pair of elastic parts spaced apart from each other, each elastic part having a fixing portion, an elastic arm extending from the fixing portion, and a fastening end extending from the elastic arm and secured on the holder;

a vibrating member suspended in the hollow space by the suspension, the vibrating member having a yoke, an inner magnet mounted on the yoke, an outer magnet mounted on the yoke, and an outer pole plate mounted on the outer magnet and forming a magnetic gap together with the inner and outer magnets, the outer pole plate having at least a pair of receiving concaves separated from each other in space for fixing the fixing portions of the suspension;

a diaphragm arranged facing the vibrating member;

a voice coil driving the diaphragm to vibrate and partially inserted into the magnetic gap.

2. The multi-function vibrating device as described in claim 1 , the elastic parts are coplanar with respect to each other.

3. The multi-function vibrating device as described in claim 2 , the elastic arms are configured to be a part of a circle and disposed on a circle.

4. The multi-function vibrating device as described in claim 3 , wherein a region of the elastic arms disposed on the circle ranges from 40% or more to less than 95% of a total region of the circle, thereby increasing the vibrating amount.

5. The multi-function vibrating device as described in claim 4 , wherein the elastic arms extend in the same direction from corresponding fixing portions respectively.

6. The multi-function vibrating device as described in claim 1 , wherein the outer pole plate further has a first surface, a second surface opposite to the first surface, and a lateral connecting the first and second surface and the receiving concaves extends from the lateral toward a center thereof and connects with the first surface of the outer pole plate.

7. The multi-function vibrating device as described in claim 6 , wherein the receiving concaves are located at equal distances in the outer pole plate in order to effectively guide the vibrating member to vibrate approaching and away from the diaphragm.

8. The multi-function vibrating device as described in claim 6 , wherein the outer pole plate has three receiving concaves located at equal distances.

9. The multi-function vibrating device as described in claim 1 , wherein the vibrating member further defines a weight mounted on the yoke and surrounding the outer magnet.

10. A multifunctional vibrating actuator, comprising:

a holder forming a hollow space;

a suspension assembled with the holder and having at least a pair of elastic parts spaced apart from each other, each elastic part having a fixing portion, an elastic arm extending from the fixing portion, and a fastening end extending from the elastic arm and secured on the holder;

a diaphragm arranged facing the vibrating member;

a vibrating member suspended in the hollow space by the suspension and facing the diaphragm, the vibrating member having a yoke and an inner magnet mounted on the yoke, the yoke having a bottom, a plurality of side portions extending from the bottom toward the diaphragm for forming a magnetic gap with the inner magnet, and at least a pair of receiving concaves formed in a top surface of the side portions for fixing the fixing portions of the suspension, the receiving concaves separated from each other in space;

a voice coil partially inserted into the magnetic gap.

11. The multi-function vibrating device as described in claim 10 , the elastic parts are coplanar with respect to each other.

12. A multifunctional vibrating actuator, comprising:

a holder forming a hollow space;

a suspension assembled with the holder and having at least a pair of elastic parts spaced apart from each other, each elastic part having a fixing portion, an elastic arm extending from the fixing portion, and a fastening end extending from the elastic arm and secured on the holder;

a vibrating member suspended in the hollow space by the suspension and facing the diaphragm, the vibrating member having a pair of receiving concaves separated from each other in space for fixing the fixing portions of the suspension;

a diaphragm arranged facing the vibrating member;

a voice coil attached to the diaphragm and partially inserted into the magnetic gap.

13. The multi-function vibrating device as described in claim 12 , the vibrating member has a yoke and an outer magnet mounted on the yoke, the yoke has a bottom and a projecting portion extending from a center of the bottom for forming a magnetic gap together with the outer magnet, the receiving concaves are formed on the outer magnet.

14. The multi-function vibrating device as described in claim 12 , the vibrating member has a yoke, an outer magnet mounted on the yoke and an outer pole plate mounted on the outer magnet, the yoke has a bottom and a projecting portion extending from a center of the bottom for forming a magnetic gap together with an inner surface of the outer magnet and the outer pole plate, the receiving concaves are formed on the outer pole plate.

15. The multi-function vibrating device as described in claim 12 , the vibrating member has a yoke, an inner magnet mounted on the yoke and an outer magnet mounted on the yoke forming a magnetic gap together with the inner magnet, the receiving concaves are formed on the outer magnet.
