Abstract

In an electroacoustic transducer ( 21 ) with a stationary transducer part ( 23 ) and with a membrane configuration ( 17 ) comprising a membrane ( 15 ) and a handling ring ( 1 ) for the membrane ( 15 ) connected with the membrane ( 15 ), the membrane configuration ( 17 ) is connected with the stationary transducer part ( 23 ) via the handling ring ( 1 ), and the handling ring ( 1 ) and membrane ( 15 ) are connected together via an interlocking connection.

Claims (5)

1. An electro-acoustic transducer

with a stationary transducer part and

with a membrane configuration comprising a membrane and a handling ring for the membrane connected to the membrane,

wherein the membrane configuration is attached to the stationary transducer part by means of the handling ring, and

wherein the handling ring and the membrane are joined together by means of an interlocking connection, the interlocking connection between the membrane and the handling ring is obtained in that the membrane is kept in contact wit the handling ring in the area of an inner radial limiting ring surface of the handling ring, in the area of a first axial limiting ring surface of the handling ring, and in the area of a second axial limiting ring surface of the handling ring opposite the first axial limiting ring surface of the handling ring.
