Abstract
In a process for producing a loudspeaker diaphragm, pulp is deposited on a paper-making mold in the presence of vortex stream of water having pulp dispersed therein in a paper-making bath. Pulp is deposited on the paper-making mold while at least the water having pulp dispersed therein is rotated by the vortex stream in the paper-making bath. Consequently, variation of pulp fiber orientation is suppressed, and a loudspeaker diaphragm with high reproducibility and stable quality is produced with a high productivity.
Claims12
A process for producing a loudspeaker diaphragm comprising:
- depositing pulp on a paper-making mold in the presence of vortex stream of water in a paper-making bath, the pulp being dispersed in the water.
A loudspeaker diaphragm comprising pulp fiber oriented axisymmetrically with respect to an axis passing the center of gravity of a loudspeaker.
A loudspeaker comprising:
- a frame coupled to a magnetic circuit;
- a loudspeaker diaphragm comprising pulp fiber oriented axisymmetrically with respect to an axis passing the center of gravity of a loudspeaker;
- and
- a voice coil coupled to the loudspeaker diaphragm, one end of the voice coil being inserted into a magnetic gap of the magnetic circuit.
A loudspeaker comprising:
- a frame coupled to a magnetic circuit;
- a loudspeaker diaphragm coupled to an outer periphery of the frame and produced using a process for producing a loudspeaker diaphragm comprising:
- depositing pulp on a paper-making mold in the presence of vortex stream of water in a paper-making bath, the pulp being dispersed in the water;
- and
- a voice coil coupled to the loudspeaker diaphragm, one end of the voice coil being inserted into a magnetic gap of the magnetic circuit.
