An uncured fluid adhesive is charged into a groove surrounding the outer circumference of a voice coil so that the inner circumferential edge of a diaphragm is immersed in the adhesive. The cured adhesive securely bonds the diaphragm to the voice coil, and thus the diaphragm can be driven at high output.
1. A speaker comprising:
a frame;
a magnetic circuit disposed in the frame;
a voice coil disposed movably with respect to a magnetic gap in the magnetic circuit, said voice coil including a coil winding;
an adhesive receiver member including
an adhesive receiver surrounding an outer circumference of the voice coil such that an adhesive-receiving groove is formed about the voice coil, and
an extending portion extending downwardly along the voice coil from a bottom of the adhesive receiver to be in contact with the coil winding of the voice coil so as to position the adhesive receiver with respect to the voice coil;
a diaphragm having an inner circumferential edge disposed in the groove, and an outer circumferential edge coupled to the frame via a first edge;
a suspension holder connected to a backside of the diaphragm and having an outer circumferential edge coupled to the frame via a second edge; and
an adhesive charged in the groove;
wherein the inner circumferential edge of the diaphragm is bonded to the voice coil by the adhesive.
2. The speaker of claim 1 , wherein a clearance is provided between the inner circumferential edge of the diaphragm and the voice coil.
