Abstract
To provide a capacitor microphone without molds or dies formed with a high accuracy for the manufacturing of spring terminals of the capacitor microphone, this invention provides a capacitor microphone including spring terminals attached to an insulator so as to make the spring terminals contact and conductive with contact points provided at the inside and the outside of a capacitor microphone main body. The spring terminals are provided with leg portions each formed by a pair of wire rods having elasticity which protrude in directions separating to each other toward the outside. The spring terminals can be manufactured in a short time and at a low cost and realize a stable electrical connection.
Claims10
A capacitor microphone comprising:
- an insulator fixed to a main body of the capacitor microphone;
- and
- a spring terminal having leg portions attached to the insulator so as to conduct an output signal from the capacitor microphone main body to contact points of boards to which the spring terminal is to be coupled;
- wherein the spring terminal is formed by a pair of wire rods having elasticity which protrude in directions separating to each other toward outside.
A portable telephone comprising:
- a capacitor microphone;
- and
- a board coupled to the capacitor microphone;
- wherein the capacitor microphone includes:
- an insulator fixed to a main body of the capacitor microphone;
- and
- a spring terminal having leg portions attached to the insulator so as to conduct an output signal from the capacitor microphone main body to contact points of boards to which the spring terminal is to be coupled;
- wherein the spring terminal is formed by a pair of wire rods having elasticity which protrude in directions separating to each other toward outside.
A portable telephone comprising:
- a capacitor microphone;
- and
- a board coupled to the capacitor microphone;
- wherein the capacitor microphone includes:
- an insulator fixed to a main body of the capacitor microphone;
- and
- a spring terminal having leg portions attached to the insulator so as to conduct an output signal from the capacitor microphone main body to contact points of boards to which the spring terminal is to be coupled;
- wherein the spring terminal is formed by a pair of wire rods having elasticity which protrude in directions separating to each other toward outside, and
