DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in details with reference to the accompanying drawings.

As shown in FIG. 1, the speaker device according to the specific embodiment of the present invention comprises a vibration system, a magnetic circuit system and an auxiliary system. The auxiliary system comprises a front cover 11 and a housing 12. The front cover 11 and the housing 12 accommodate and fix the vibration system and the magnetic circuit system. The vibration system comprises a diaphragm 4, a centering piece 3 and a voice coil 5 which are fixedly combined with the diaphragm 4. The magnetic circuit system comprises a magnet and a magnetic conductive member. As shown in FIG. 2, the magnetic circuit system is provided with a magnetic gap, into which the voice coil 5 suspends. When an external electrical signal enters into the voice coil 5, current of the voice coil 5 positioned in the magnetic field changes, so that the voice coil 5 vibrates up and down by Lorentz force. Vibration of the voice coil 5 drives the diaphragm 4 to vibrate, and vibration of the diaphragm 4 incites air to make sounds.

As shown in FIG. 2, in the speaker device of the present invention, the centering piece 3 includes a first fixing portion 31 and a second fixing portion 32 provided in the first fixing portion 31. The second fixing portion 32 has a plane structure. The first fixing portion 31 is connected to the second fixing portion 32 through a connecting arm 33. The first fixing portion 31 is provided with a group of first external pads 31a. As shown in FIG. 3, the second fixing portion 32 of the speaker device of the present invention is provided with an antenna circuit 2, and the antenna circuit 2 is electrically connected to the first external pad 31a of the first fixing portion 31. The antenna circuit 2 is electrically coupled with an external circuit through the first external pad 31a, such that the speaker device of the present invention has antenna functions. The antenna circuit provided on the second fixing portion of the centering piece does not occupy space of the speaker device, which is advantageous to the thinner design of the speaker device. The antenna circuit allows the speaker device of the present invention to have functions of signal sending and receiving, which is advantageous to the integrated design of the speaker device. Meanwhile, since the antenna circuit is provided on the centering piece of the speaker, which is disposed in the speaker, it is possible to protect the antenna circuit, prevent the antenna circuit, once being arranged outside the speaker device, from being damaged during the process of production and application of the speaker, and thereby improving the reliability of the antenna circuit.

As shown in FIG. 3, the second fixing portion 32 is provided with a group of second pads 32a. The second pads 32a are welded to the voice coil. The first fixing portion 31 is provided with a group of second external pads 31b, and the second external pads 31b are electrically coupled with the second pads 32a. The centering piece 3 is provided with a conductive circuit. Each of the first fixing portion 31, the second fixing portion 32 and the connecting arm 33 is provided with the conductive circuit. The external pads provided on the first fixing portion are electrically connected to the pads provided on the second fixing portion through the conductive circuits.

In the process of practical application, the antenna circuit may be a conductive metal circuit. The conductive metal circuit may be provided in the centering piece, which may be a flexible circuit board structure. The centering piece is internally provided with an antenna circuit, which equivalents to a flexible circuit board antenna. In the process of practical application, the antenna circuit also may be directly provided on a surface of the centering piece through Laser Direct Structuring (LDS). The antenna circuit may be provided at a side, being away from or close to the diaphragm, of the centering piece, according to requirement, which will not affect the advantages of the speaker device of the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 1, in the speaker device of the present invention, the auxiliary system comprises a front cover 11 and a housing 12. The first fixing portion 31 of the centering piece 3 is fixed between the front cover 11 and the housing 12. The second fixing portion 32 is accommodated in space enclosed by the front cover 11 and the housing 12. The antenna circuit provided on the second fixing portion is also accommodated between the front cover and the housing. The front cover and the housing may protect the antenna circuit from being damaged in the assembly and application processes of the speaker, and thereby ensuring proper work of the antenna circuit.

By providing an antenna circuit at a central position of the second fixing portion of the centering piece and integrating an antenna device and a sound-producing device, the speaker device of the present invention may achieve antenna functions without increasing a thickness of the speaker device and be beneficial to a thinner design of the speaker device, which are advantageous to a thinner design and an integrated design of the product.
