DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS

The technical solutions in embodiments of the present disclosure will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure.


As shown in FIGS. 1-3, the present disclosure discloses a speaker 100. The speaker 100 includes a frame 10, and a vibration system 20 and a magnetic circuit system 30 fixed to the frame 10.


The vibration system 20 includes a diaphragm 21 and a voice coil 22 driving the diaphragm 21 to vibrate and emit sounds. The diaphragm 21 includes a dome 212 and a suspension 211 surrounding the dome 212. The suspension 211 is a hollow ring structure with an inner edge connected to the dome 212 and an outer edge connected to the frame 10. The dome 212 includes a first dome 2121 and a second dome 2122 stacked on the first dome 2121, the first dome 2121 is fixedly connected with the suspension 211. The first dome 2121 is a metal dome, or a plastic dome, or a composite dome with a metal layer and a foam layer, the second dome 2122 is a metal dome, or a plastic dome, or a composite dome with a metal layer and a foam layer. Specially, the material of the metal dome or the metal layer is a metal such as aluminum, titanium, beryllium, lithium, magnesium and other metals and their alloys, and its thickness is 5-200 μm; the foam layer is consisted of common foam materials such as polyimide foam, PMI foam or polyester foam, the material of the plastic dome is a polyethylene naphthalene dicarboxylic acid ethylene glycol ester, a polyimide, or other plastic materials. A projection of the second dome 2122 along a vibration direction of the diaphragm 21 is entirely located on the first dome 2121, and the second dome 2122 is smaller than the first dome 2121. That is, the dome is set up as a localized multilayer, which enhances the strength of the dome 212.


The first dome 2121 and the second dome 2122 are connected together by a bonding layer 2123, the bonding layer 2123 may be a glue or a solder, the glue is one of a thermosetting epoxy adhesive, a phenolic adhesive, a bismarck resin, a hot-melt adhesive PE, a hot-melt adhesive PBT, and a reactive silicone adhesive. In other embodiments, the first dome and the second dome may also be fixedly connected by other means.


The first dome 2121 includes an upper surface 2101 away from the magnetic circuit system 30 and a lower surface 2102 opposite to the upper surface 2101, the second dome 2122 is located on the upper surface 2101 of the first dome 2121, preferably, the second dome 2122 is located on the center of the first dome 2121, and the suspension 211 is fixedly connected with an edge of the upper surface 2101 of the first dome 2121. In this embodiment, the first dome 2121 is provided with a receiving groove 2120 recessed from the upper surface 2101 to the lower surface 2102, the second dome 2122 is accommodated in the receiving groove 2120, thereby a multi-layer dome can be provided without increasing the overall height of the speaker 100, which will enhance the strength of the dome 212 and the performance of the speaker 100. In addition, the receiving groove 2120 includes a base 21201 connected with the second dome 2122 and a connecting portion 21202 connected with the base 21201 and the upper surface 2101, the connecting portion 21202 is an inclined surface which could enhance the vibrational reliability of the first dome 2121.
