Abstract

A vibration speaker layout is disclosed to maximize vibration quantity as vibration member is made feasible of resonation in vertical direction by individually furnishing signal input devices for sound generation and vibration generation respectively, which layout comprises a case 10; a vibration plate 20 in order to generate sound, the outside edge of which vibration plate is adfixed to top part of case 10; a voice coil 30 wound cylindrically whose top is adfixed to vibration plate 20; a vibration member 40 composed of magnet 41 and yoke 42 which vibration member is furnished under voice coil 30, which magnet is polarized up and down into N and S poles respectively, and which yoke constitutes magnetic circuit, having been attached to the magnet; an elastic member 50 that elastically supports between the vibration member and the case so that the vibration member may move up and down vertically; and a coil 60 of single phase to generate vibration which coil is attached to bottom surface of the case, facing the vibration member at bottom part of the vibration member so that this coil may drive the vibration member up and down vertically by interaction with the vibration member; whence formation is so that sound be generated by oscillating vibration plate 20 making high-frequency electric current to be applied through voice coil 30 at time of high-frequency signal input while vibration be generated by driving vibration member 40 up and down making low-frequency electric current to be applied through coil 60 to generate vibration at time of low-frequency signal input.

Dependent claims

A vibration speaker comprising:

a case;
a vibration plate in order to generate sound, the outside edge of which vibration plate is affixed to top part of said case;
a voice coil wound cylindrically whose top is affixed to said vibration plate;
a vibration member composed of a magnet and a yoke which said vibration member is furnished under the voice coil, which said magnet is polarized up and down into N and S poles, and which said yoke constitutes a magnetic circuit, having been attached to said magnet;
an elastic member that elastically supports between said vibration member and said case so that said vibration member may move up and down vertically;
and
a coil of single phase to generate vibration which coil is attached to bottom surface of said case, facing said vibration member at bottom part of said vibration member so that said coil may drive said vibration member up and down vertically so as to be essentially free of rocking motion by interaction with said vibration member.
