Linear vibration motor
The present disclosure provides a linear vibration motor. The linear vibration motor comprises a shell having a housing space, a vibration unit housed in the housing space, an elastic member suspending the vibration unit in the housing space, and a driving unit driving the vibration unit to vibrate. The vibration unit comprises a housing portion recessed inwardly on two sides perpendicular to the vibration direction. The housing portion includes respective inner walls constituting the housing portion. The linear vibration motor further includes a blocking piece housing in the housing portion and fixedly connected to the inner wall, and a foamed cotton fixedly connected to the blocking piece and at least partially received in the housing portion, the blocking piece carrying and supporting the foamed cotton, and the blocking piece cooperating with the foamed cotton to limit the displacement of the vibration unit in the vibration direction.
1. A linear vibration motor, comprising:
a shell having a housing space;
a vibration unit, which is accommodated in the housing space;
an elastic member for suspending the vibration unit in the housing space;
a driving unit for driving the vibration unit to vibrate;
wherein the vibration unit further comprises two housing portions recessing inwardly from the both sides of the vibration unit in a direction that is perpendicular to the vibration direction, the housing portion comprises a plurality of inner walls which form the housing portion, the linear vibration motor further comprises a blocking piece accommodated in the housing space and fixedly connected with one of the plurality of inner walls, and a foamed cotton at least partial accommodated in the housing portion and fixedly connected with the blocking piece, the blocking piece undertakes to support the foamed cotton to cooperate to limit displacement of the vibration unit in the vibration direction;
the blocking piece comprises a first portion fixedly coupled to at least one of the plurality of inner walls and a second portion extending from an end of the first portion in a direction perpendicular to the vibration direction of the vibration unit, the first portion is perpendicular to the second portion, and the second portion undertakes and supports the foamed cotton, the first portion comprises a body portion connected to the second portion and a recess portion recessed along the direction from one end of the body portion toward the second portion, wherein the one end of the body portion is in a side away from the second portion;
there are two recess portions, and the two recess portions are respectively located at two corners of the body portion away from one end of the second portion.
2. The linear vibration motor as described in claim 1 , wherein the first portion and one of the plurality of inner walls are fixed by welding.
3. The linear vibration motor as described in claim 1 , wherein the vibration unit further includes a mass block suspended in the housing space and a magnet assembled on the mass block, the housing portion disposed on the mass block.
4. The linear vibration motor as described in claim 3 , wherein the shell comprises a frame and a cover disposed on the frame, the mass block comprises a first surface away from the cover, a second surface disposed opposite to the first surface, and a third surface connecting the first surface and the second surface, the housing portion is recessed from the third surface away from the frame and penetrates the first surface and the second surface.
5. The linear vibration motor as described in claim 4 , wherein there are two housing portions, which are symmetrically arranged on the central axis of the width direction of the mass block.
