The present application provides a sound generating device module, including:
A baffle plate 6 is provided on a side of the housing 1 corresponding to the high-pitch sound generating unit 5, and the baffle plate 6 cooperates with the housing to change the sound output direction of the high-pitch sound generating unit 5. The baffle plate 6 cooperates with the housing 1 so that the sound generating device module forms a side sound output port for the high-pitch sound generating unit 5, and thereby the sound generated by the vibration of the high-pitch sound generating unit can be transmitted from the side surface. Optionally, the sound generating device module may be configured to form a front sound output structure for the low-pitch sound generating unit 4, so that the sound of the low-pitch sound generating unit 4 can be transmitted from the front surface. For example, the sound output direction of the high-pitch sound generating unit 5 and the sound output direction of the low-pitch sound generating unit 4 are perpendicular to each other. In order to satisfy different positions of sound output hole of more electronic devices, the sound output direction of the high-pitch sound generating unit 5 is changed to be perpendicular to the sound output direction of the low-pitch sound generating unit 4 through the baffle plate 6, therefore the requirements of different products for sound output positions can be satisfied.
A reinforcement plate 8 is provided in the frame 2, and the reinforcement plate 8 is located between the high-pitch sound generating unit 5 and the low-pitch sound generating unit 4. The reinforcement plate 8 functions to provide a relatively stable installation position for a part of the structure of the suction system of the high-pitch sound generating unit 5, so that the internal structure of the sound generating device module is relatively stable at a whole, and the sound quality of the sound generating device module is guaranteed.
In the technical solution of the present application, the high-pitch sound generating unit 5 and the low-pitch sound generating unit 4 share one frame 2, so as to save the space, and in the meanwhile, using the reinforcement plate 8 to strengthen the structural stability of the high-pitch sound generating unit 5 and the low-pitch sound generating unit 4, so that a high sound quality of the sound generating device module is guaranteed.
Optionally, an edge of the frame 2 bends and extends towards a direction opposite to the baffle plate 6 to form a first accommodation groove 21, and a part of the low-pitch sound generating unit 4 is disposed in the first accommodation groove 21.

The reinforcement plate 8 provides an area for fixing and installing the high-pitch sound generating unit 5 and the low-pitch sound generating unit 4 while separating the first accommodation groove 21 and the second accommodation groove 22, and in the meanwhile, the reinforcement plate 8 can ensure that the magnetic circuit in the high-pitch sound generating unit 5 and the magnetic circuit in the low-pitch sound generating unit 4 are more stable with respect to each other.
Optionally, the low-pitch sound generating unit 4 includes a first magnet 41, a first coil 42 and a first diaphragm 43, the first magnet 41 is disposed in the first accommodation groove 21 and is fixed on the reinforcement plate 8, the first diaphragm 43 is disposed on the housing 1 at the opposite side of the opening of the first accommodation groove 21, a first magnetic gap 44 is provided between the first magnet 41 and a wall of the first accommodation groove 21, the first coil 42 is connected with the first diaphragm 43, and the first coil 42 is located in the first magnetic gap 44. The reinforcement plate 8 is adopted to fix the first magnet 41, and in the meanwhile, to allow the first magnetic gap 44 to be formed between the first magnet 41 and the wall of the first accommodation groove 21, so that after the first coil 42 disposed in the first magnetic gap 44 is energized, the moving electric charges are subjected to a Lorentz force in the magnetic field, and the first coil 42 vibrates, so as to realize the conversion of electrical energy into mechanical energy, thereby driving the diaphragm to vibrate to generate sound.
Optionally, the high-pitch sound generating unit 5 includes a second magnet 51, a second coil 52 and a second diaphragm 53, the second magnet 51 is disposed in the second accommodation groove 22 and is fixed on the reinforcement plate 8, the second diaphragm 53 is disposed on the housing 1 at the opposite side of the opening of the second accommodation groove 22, a second magnetic gap 54 is provided between the second magnet 51 and a wall of the second accommodation groove 22, the second coil 52 is connected with the second diaphragm 53, and the second coil 52 is located in the second magnetic gap 54. The second magnet 51 is fixed on the reinforcement plate 8, and is disposed in the second accommodation groove 22 in an opposite direction to the first magnet 41. In this case, the direction of transmitting the high-pitch sound through the second diaphragm 53 and the direction of transmitting the low-pitch sound through the first diaphragm 43 are opposite.
Meanwhile, by changing the direction of outputting the high-pitch sound through the baffle plate 6, a rear sound outputting can be changed to a side sound outputting. In order to applicable to more electronic devices, specifically, the baffle plate 6 may be disposed to be detachable, and a side of the housing 1 corresponding to the high-pitch sound generating unit 5 may be provided with a ring-shaped installation position, the baffle plate 6 may be mounted in different positions, so that the sound outputting direction of the high-pitch sound generating unit 5 can be manually adjusted, thereby the sound generating device module is applicable to more electronic devices without redesigning the structure of the sound generating device module, which is more universally used and further reduces costs.
In a limited space, through the arrangement of the reinforcement plate, the supporting force is more evenly distributed and balanced, the material is saved, and the space is fully utilized, so that the first magnet 41 and the second magnet 51 can stably generate magnetic field.
Optionally, a first sound output hole 11 is provided at a position of the housing 1 corresponding to the opening of the first accommodation groove 21, and the first diaphragm 43 covers on the first sound output hole 11; a second sound output hole 12 is provided at a position of the housing 1 corresponding to the opening of the second accommodation groove 22, and the second diaphragm 53 covers on the second sound output hole 12. Specifically, during the vibration of the first diaphragm 43 and the second diaphragm 53, the sound is transmitted from the sound outlet holes.
Optionally, the area of the first sound output hole 11 is larger than the area of the second sound output hole 12. In order to ensure that the high-pitch sound of the sound generating device module is sweetness and transparency and the low-pitch sound of the sound generating device module is surging and shocking, it is necessary to clearly distinguish the high-pitch sound and the low-pitch sound. Thus, the area of the first sound output hole 11 needs to be larger than the area of the second sound output hole 12, and accordingly, the area of the first diaphragm 43 is also larger than the area of the second diaphragm 53. Specifically, the shapes of the first sound output hole 11 and the second sound output hole 12 are not specifically limited, and may be circular shape, waist shape or other holes that can meet the sound requirements. As an example, the first sound output hole 11 and the second sound output hole 12 are circular sound output holes, the first sound output hole 11 and the second sound output hole 12 share the first rear sound cavity 3, the diameter of the first sound output hole 11 is larger than the diameter of the second sound output hole 12, thereby ensuring that the sound output from the first sound output hole 11 is low-pitch sound, the sound output from the second sound output hole 12 is high-pitch sound, thereby realizing the integrity for the gamut of the sound generating device module.
Optionally, edges of the first diaphragm 43 and the second diaphragm 53 are fixed on the housing 1; a portion of the first diaphragm 43 close to an edge of the first sound output hole 11 is recessed towards inside of the cavity to form a first rim 431; a portion of the second diaphragm 53 close to an edge of the second sound output hole 12 is recessed towards inside of the cavity to form a second rim 531. After the first coil and the second coil are energized, electric charges move in the first magnetic gap 44 and the second magnetic gap 54 respectively, the first coil and the second coil vibrate and drive the first diaphragm 43 and the second diaphragm 53 to vibrate, and the first rim 431 and the second rim 531 are used to prevent the first diaphragm 43 and the second diaphragm 53 from being damaged by pulling during the vibration, or prevent that the vibration amplitude is not enough which results in that the high-pitch sound and the low-pitch sound fail to meet the requirements. When the first coil 42 and the second coil 52 vibrate, the first rim 431 and the second rim 531 provide a larger margin for the vibration of the first diaphragm 43 and the second diaphragm 53, so that the sound of the sound generating device module more fidelity.
Generally, the increase of the strength of the magnetic field can improve the sensitivity and the amplitude of the vibration of the diaphragm, thereby improving the acoustic performance of the sound generating device module. The strength of the magnetic field is increased mainly by increasing the magnetism and the volume of the first magnet 41 and the second magnet 51. However, in actual product demand, the overall size of the sound generating device module is generally fixed and cannot be increased arbitrarily, which results in that the first magnet 41 and the second magnet 51 having limited volume cannot generate a strong enough magnetic field and thereby cannot achieve the requirement of the acoustic performance. Therefore, by allowing the low-pitch sound generating unit 4 and the high-pitch sound generating unit 5 to share the same frame 2, the volume of the first magnet 41 and the second magnet 51 can be further increased without increasing the overall volume of the sound generating device module, thereby achieving the required acoustics performance. Or, the volume of the sound generating device module can be further reduced, and accordingly, the sound generating device module is applicable to more electronic devices, or the volume of the electronic devices can be further reduced.
Optionally, a first stiffening plate 45 and a second stiffening plate 55 are respectively fixed on the first diaphragm 43 and the second diaphragm 53. During the vibration of the first diaphragm 43 and the second diaphragm 53, since the diaphragm is made of soft material, the acoustic performance may be lost as the vibration frequency changes. By providing the first stiffening plate 45 and the second stiffening plate 55 on the first diaphragm 43 and the second diaphragm 53 respectively, the diaphragm can be subject to overall and reliable balance restriction, and the possibility of polarization and tilt vibration of the diaphragm is greatly reduced.
Optionally, a first washer is provided on a side of the first magnet 41 facing the first diaphragm 43; and a second washer is provided on a side of the second magnet 51 facing the second diaphragm 53, so as to reduce the possibility of polarization caused by the unbalanced driving force of the whole vibration assembly. By means of the first washer and the second washer, the magnetic field strength and magnetic field uniformity at the magnetic gap are further improved, and a uniform and stronger magnetic field is formed in the magnetic gap, so that the first coil 42 and the second coil 52 can receive an improved magnetic field in each area along the circumferential direction thereof, thereby improving the acoustic performance of the sound generating device module.
Optionally, the frame 2 and the housing 1 form a first rear sound cavity 3 and a second rear sound cavity 7 in the cavity. The housing 1 may be provided with structures such as a protrusion, a baffle wall in the cavity, and the frame 2 can be fitted with the above-mentioned structures such as the protrusion, the baffle wall to divide the cavity into the first rear sound cavity 3 and the second rear sound cavity 7 by cooperating with the internal structure of the housing 1. The first rear sound cavity 3 is communicated with the low-pitch sound generating unit 4, and the second rear sound cavity 7 is communicated with the high-pitch sound generating unit 5. The first rear sound cavity 3 and the second rear sound cavity 7 isolated from each other are not communicated with each other, and the first rear sound cavity 3 and the second rear sound cavity 7 are respectively used as the rear sound cavity of the low-pitch sound generating unit 4 and the high-pitch sound generating unit 5, so as to provide the sound generating unit with the acoustic effect of rear cavity resonance and sound absorption. In this embodiment, each of the high-pitch sound generating unit 5 and the low-pitch sound generating unit 4 has a separate rear cavity, a separate second rear sound cavity 7 is configured as a cavity specially used by the high-pitch sound generating unit 5 to prevent the interference with the low-pitch sound generating unit 4. Since the first coil 42 and the second diaphragm 53 have small amplitudes in the high-pitch sound generating unit 5, the volume of the second rear sound cavity 7 does not need to be too large as long as the second rear sound cavity 7 can enclose the second magnet 51, the second coil 52 and the second diaphragm 53 inside thereof.
Optionally, the second rear sound cavity 7 may have a specific structure in which a ring-shaped partition plate is provided on a side of the frame 2 corresponding to the second sound output hole 12, and the partition plate has one end connected to the frame 2 and the other end thereof is connected to an inner wall of the housing 1, which improves the stability of the frame 2 without increasing the internal space of the sound generating device module. The diameter of the second rear sound cavity 7 enclosed by the partition plate is larger than the diameter of the second diaphragm 53 and larger than the diameter of the second accommodation groove 22.
