Abstract
An electroacoustic transducer comprising an electromechanical transducer and a vibratory component. The latter has a generally cylindrical side wall, an outwardly directed portion at the base of the side wall, and a generally planar vibratory top wall extending inwardly from the rim of the side wall further from its base to close the upper end of the cylindrical side wall. The said outwardly directed portion is mounted on the electromechanical transducer.
Claims17
An electroacoustic transducer comprising a piezoceramic block and a vibratory component having a generally cylindrical side wall, an outwardly directed portion at the base of the side wall, and a generally planar vibratory top wall extending inwardly from the rim of the side wall further from its base to close the upper end of the cylindrical side wall, in which the said outwardly directed portion is mounted on the piezoceramic block, the electroacoustic transducer further comprising a housing surrounding the piezoceramic block, wherein an inwardly directed lip of the housing abuts a corner of the vibratory component where the top wall meets the side wall and, if the corner is chamfered, abuts the corner at the center of the chamfering.
