Broadband electrodynamic transducer for headphones, and associated headphones
The invention relates to a broadband electrodynamic transducer for headphones, said transducer comprising: —a magnetic motor designed to generate a magnetic field; —a coil that is disposed in the air gap of the magnetic motor and can move translationally under the effect of the magnetic field; and —a membrane that is connected to the coil in such a way as to convert the translational movement of the coil into an acoustic wave; —the transducer comprising a self-supporting coil that is glued to the membrane, the membrane having a Young's modulus of more than 40 GPa.
1. A broadband electrodynamic transducer for headphones, where said transducer comprises:
a magnetic motor configured for generating a magnetic field;
a coil arranged in an air gap of said magnetic motor and mobile in translation under the effect of said magnetic field; and
a membrane connected to said coil so as to convert the translational movement of said coil into an acoustic wave;
characterized in that said transducer comprises a self-supporting coil attached to said membrane by adhering, where said membrane has a Young's modulus over 40 GPa and in that said suspension has a thickness included between 50 and 100 μm; and
wherein said magnetic motor comprises at least a central recess so as to create a column for air expansion extending from the membrane to a rear of said transducer so that the electrodynamic transducer presents an opening surface of over 35%, said opening surface corresponding to a ratio between an emitting surface of the membrane and a surface of the recess at the rear of said transducer.
