Abstract

Disclosed is a linear vibration motor, comprising a housing, a vibration assembly and a stator assembly, wherein the vibration assembly includes a mass block, a permanent magnet and an elastic sheet and the stator assembly includes a coil and a damping element; the damping element includes a main body and an elastic arm extending upwards from the main body, and the main body is fixed on an end of the mass block in the length direction; and the elastic sheet has a middle arm and a first connection arm and a second connection arm respectively provided at two ends of the middle arm, the surface of the middle arm adjacent to the mass block is abutted against the elastic arm, the first connection arm is fixedly connected to the housing, and the second connection arm is fixedly connected to the mass block.

Claims (10)

1. A linear vibration motor, comprising a housing, a vibration assembly and a stator assembly, wherein the vibration assembly includes a mass block, a permanent magnet and an elastic sheet and the stator assembly includes a coil and a damping element; the damping element includes a main body and an elastic arm extending from the main body in the direction away from the mass block, and the main body is fixed on an end of the mass block in the length direction, the elastic arm is configured to be an arm structure which has elasticity and provides an elastic force to a component adhered thereto or abutted therewith; and the elastic sheet has a middle arm and a first connection arm and a second connection arm respectively provided at two ends of the middle arm, the surface of the middle arm adjacent to the mass block is abutted against the elastic arm, the first connection arm is fixedly connected to the housing, and the second connection arm is fixedly connected to the mass block.

2. The linear vibration motor according to claim 1 , wherein the main body is sleeved on an end of the mass block in the length direction.

3. The linear vibration motor according to claim 1 , wherein the mass block is provided with a positioning groove at least partially mating with the main body.

4. The linear vibration motor according to claim 1 , wherein the surface of the elastic sheet away from the mass block is adhered to the surface of the middle arm adjacent to the mass block.

5. The linear vibration motor according to claim 1 , wherein there are two damping elements and the two damping elements are respectively provided at two ends of the mass block in the length direction.

6. The linear vibration motor according to claim 1 , wherein the housing includes an upper housing and a lower housing, the coil is fixed on the lower housing, and the first connection arm is fixedly connected to the upper housing.

7. The linear vibration motor according to claim 6 , wherein the stator assembly also includes a limit block fixedly connected to the lower housing to limit the vibration travel of the vibration assembly.

8. The linear vibration motor according to claim 7 , wherein the surface of the middle arm corresponding to the limit block is a slope surface to avoid the collision of the elastic sheet with the limit block during vibration.

9. The linear vibration motor according to claim 1 , wherein the vibration assembly also includes a Washer plate provided on one side of the mass block which is embedded with the permanent magnet, and the Washer plate is fixedly connected to the housing and/or the mass block.

10. The linear vibration motor according to claim 1 , wherein the material of the damping element is silica.
