The disclosure belongs to the technical field of electro-acoustic conversion, and particularly relates to a speaker device and a headphone.
With the development of various electronic products and the growing demands of users for headphones, more and more requirements are imposed on the quality of headphones. At present, single-driver full-range headphones account for a large proportion in consumer headphones for the maturity and easy production. Unfortunately, the single-driver headphones usually have desirable resolution at low and medium frequency bands, but poor resolution at high frequency bands. Hence, a tweeter is often provided to compensate the resolution effect at the high frequency bands.
In the related art, a structure of a headphone housing is changed if the tweeter is provided in the headphone. Usually, a fixed latch is provided, and the tweeter is arranged in the housing together with a woofer. However, due to a large structural thickness as well as a low sensitivity of the tweeter, the conventional headphones cannot satisfy requirements of markets on sizes and sound production performance of the headphones.
An objective of the disclosure is to provide a speaker device and a headphone. The speaker device can reduce a whole structural thickness, improve a sensitivity of the tweeter, and better satisfy requirements of markets on the size and sound production performance of the headphone.

The disclosure provides a headphone, including a housing (not shown) and a speaker device fixed in the housing. Referring to
According to the solutions, the second vibration unit 23 is located in a spacing between the first magnetic circuit unit 12 and the second magnetic circuit unit 22. The first magnetic circuit unit 12 includes an auxiliary magnet 121 close to the second vibration unit 23. The second magnetic circuit unit 22 includes a central magnet 221 fixed to the second frame 21 and side magnets 222 located at a periphery of the central magnet 221. A magnetizing direction of the auxiliary magnet 121 and a magnetizing direction of the central magnet 221 are opposite and are located in a vibrating direction of the first vibration unit 13. Magnetizing directions of the side magnets 222 each point to the central magnet 221. A magnetic field formed by a magnetic circuit of the auxiliary magnet 121 and a magnetic field formed by a magnetic circuit of the second magnetic circuit unit 22 are repulsive to each other. This can improve a magnetic flux density of the second vibration unit 23 in a horizontal direction (perpendicular to the vibrating direction), enhance a power conversion factor of the second vibration unit 23, and make the second vibration unit 23 more sensitive. The tweeter 2 shares the auxiliary magnet 121 of the woofer 1, such that the thickness of the whole speaker device is reduced. The speaker device can better satisfy requirements of markets on the size and sound production performance of the headphone.
In some embodiments, the second vibration unit 23 includes a tweeter diaphragm 231 with an outer edge fixed to the second frame 21 and a tweeter voice coil 232 fixed to a side of the tweeter diaphragm 231 away from the central magnet 221. The side magnets 222 each are an arc structure coaxial with the central magnet 221. The side magnets 222 are spaced apart from each other at an equal angle around the central magnet 221. For example, the tweeter diaphragm 231 is a circular sheet. The central magnet 221 is a cylinder. The tweeter voice coil and the auxiliary magnet 121 are circular rings. The tweeter diaphragm 231, the tweeter voice coil 232, the central magnet 221 and the auxiliary magnet 121 are coaxial. There are four side magnets 222 spaced apart from each other at the periphery of the central magnet 221. Therefore, the second vibration unit 23 is more stable and reliable. The magnetic flux density between the second magnetic circuit unit 22 and the auxiliary magnet 121 can be stronger to improve the sensitivity of the second vibration unit 23 and achieve better sound production performance. In some embodiments, there may also be three, five or six side magnets 222 at the periphery of the central magnet 221.
In some embodiments, the second vibration unit 23, the first magnetic circuit unit 12 and the second frame 21 define a tweeter front cavity 20. A tweeter sound hole 210 communicating with the tweeter front cavity 20 is formed in a periphery of the second frame 21. The tweeter 2 further includes a sound leading tube 24 with one end connected to the tweeter sound hole 210 and the other end extending radially outward. With the sound leading tube 24, high-frequency sound can be better transmitted, and the tweeter has a better effect.
In some embodiments, the second frame 21 includes a support ring 211 fixed to one side of the first magnetic circuit unit 12 and a sealing cover 212 fixed to a side of the support ring 211 away from the first magnetic circuit unit 12. The sealing cover 212 clamps and fixes the second vibration unit 23. The second magnetic circuit unit 22 is fixed in the sealing cover 212. In some embodiments, the central magnet 221 is coaxially fixed in the sealing cover 212. The side magnets 222 are embedded between an inner wall of the sealing cover 212 and the central magnet 221. An outer edge of the tweeter diaphragm 231 is clamped between the sealing cover 212 and the support ring 211.
In some embodiments, an avoiding notch 2111 is formed in a side of the support ring 211 close to the sealing cover 212. The avoiding notch 2111 and the sealing cover 212 define the tweeter sound hole 210. In some embodiments, the avoiding notch 2111 extends along a periphery of the support ring 211. The tweeter sound hole 210 formed extends along a periphery of the second frame 21, and is shaped as a long flat strip.
In some embodiments, a tail end of the sound leading tube 24 is aligned with an outer side of the first frame 11. A width of the sound leading tube 24 increases gradually in a direction away from the tweeter sound hole 210. In some embodiments, the whole sound leading tube 24 is fan-shaped. An included angle between two sides of the sound leading tube 24 can be adjusted adaptively. With the sound leading tube 24, a frequency band of the tweeter 2 can be adjusted, and the tweeter 2 plays better performance.
In some embodiments, the first vibration unit 13 includes a gasket 131 fixed to the first frame 11, a woofer diaphragm 132 with an outer ring fixed to the gasket 131 and an inner ring fixed to the first magnetic circuit unit 12, a dome frame 133 fixed to a side of the woofer diaphragm 132 close to the first magnetic circuit unit 12, a woofer voice coil 134 fixed to the dome frame 133, and a flexible PCB 135 elastically connected between the dome frame 133 and the first frame 11 and electrically connected to the woofer voice coil 134. Specifically, the woofer diaphragm 132 is located between the support ring 211 and the auxiliary magnet 121.
In some embodiments, the first magnetic circuit unit 12 includes a yoke 122 fixed to the first frame 11, a main magnet 123 fixed to the yoke 122, a pole plate 124 fixed to a side of the main magnet 123 away from the yoke 122, and a central post 125 sequentially passing through the yoke 122, the main magnet 123, the pole plate 124 and the auxiliary magnet 121. The auxiliary magnet 121 is fixed to a side of the pole plate 124 away from the main magnet 123. A first tweeter pad 1251 electrically connected to the tweeter voice coil 232 is provided at a side of the central post 125 close to the tweeter 2. A second tweeter pad 1252 electrically connected to the first tweeter pad 1251 is provided at a side of the central post 125 away from the tweeter 2. A woofer pad 111 electrically connected to the flexible PCB 135 is provided at the outer side of the first frame 11. A conductive contact of the tweeter 2 is led out through the central post 125, such that a client contact pad of the tweeter 2 is located at a same side with the woofer pad 111. This facilitates design of the flexible client contact board.
