Moving-coil electrodynamic electroacoustical transducer

Moving-coil electrodynamic acoustical transducer for medium and high frequencies, usable for either direct radiation of sound or for an indirect radiation of sound via connection to a horn, the transducer comprising:

• a compound body;
• a diaphragm connected to said compound body, said diaphragm having a convex part with an outer convex side and an inner concave side;
• a washer interposed between said diaphragm and said compound body;
• a disk formed of non-magnetic hard material, said disk being superimposed on said diaphragm and adopting a shape of said diaphragm, aid disk having openings for the output of sound and defining direct-radiation transducer power-factor-improvement device/super charger means for direct-radiation configuration of said transducer;
• indirect radiation power-factor-improvement device/super charger means formed of non-magnetic material arranged in a concavity on said concave side of said diaphragm between said diaphragm and said compound body, said indirect means having annular concentric ducts with a conical shape, aid indirect radiation power-factor-improvement device/super charger means for forcing sound waves to a given distance in a indirect radiation configuration of said transducer and for forming an adjustable damper of said diaphragm in a direct-radiation configuration of said transducer;
• a cover formed of non-magnetic material serving as a lid of said transducer in each of said direct radiation configuration an said indirect radiation configuration, said cover being applied to said body facing said concave side of said diaphragm in said direct-radiation configuration and said cover being applied to said body facing said convex side in an indirect radiation configuration;
• and
• a flange connected about said non-magnetic disk in said direct-radiation configuration and another flange connected to said compound body at the side of said compound body opposite said non-magnetic disk in said indirect-radiation configuration, wherein said diaphragm, said disc formed of non-magnetic hard material and said indirection power factor improvement device/supercharger means form a diaphragm assembly with a concave side and a convex side,
• said cover having an open end and a closed end, wherein said closed end is exposed covering said convex side in said indirect radiation configuration and said cover closed end is disposed covering said concave side in said direct radiation configuration.
