Speaker

Abstract

A speaker is disclosed. The speaker includes a housing with an accommodation space, a retaining wall enclosing an accommodation cavity for accommodating sound absorption materials with one end thereof having an opening, a sound filter covering the opening, and a support ring installed around the sound filter. The sound filter is located between the support ring and the retaining wall, or the support ring is clamped between the sound filter and the retaining wall.

Description

FIELD OF THE PRESENT DISCLOSURE

The present disclosure relates to the field of electro-acoustic transducers, and more particularly to speaker.

DESCRIPTION OF RELATED ART

Usually, an existing speaker filters the noise by setting a sound absorption cavity, in order to improve its acoustic performance. In a relevant technology, the speaker comprises a housing, an accommodation cavity for accommodating the sound absorption materials and a sound filter disposed in the housing. The accommodation cavity is provided with an opening, and the sound filter is fixed on a side wall of the periphery of the opening for covering the opening. Usually, the sound filter and the side wall are engaged by local heating, in order to melt the top of the side wall, and integrate the sound filter and the side wall closely after cooling. However, if this method of encapsulation and fixation by hot melting is used, if the melting point of the housing is too high, it is impossible to encapsulate the sound filter by hot melting. Further, during the encapsulation by hot melting, it is easy to cause the irreversible damage to the sound filter, e.g. the pollution and crush etc, so that the acoustic performance of the speaker is badly affected.

Thereof, it is necessary to disclose and provide an improved speaker to overcome the above-mentioned disadvantages.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EXEMPLARY EMBODIMENT

The present disclosure will hereinafter be described in detail with reference to an exemplary embodiment. To make the technical problems to be solved, technical solutions and beneficial effects of the present disclosure more apparent, the present disclosure is described in further detail together with the figure and the embodiment. It should be understood the specific embodiment described hereby is only to explain the disclosure, not intended to limit the disclosure.

Referring to FIGS. 1-2, a speaker 100 comprises a housing 1 with an accommodation space, a retaining wall 2 integrated with the housing 1 which is in the accommodation space, and an insulation structure 3. The retaining wall 2 encloses an accommodation cavity 20 used for accommodating sound absorption materials, one end of which forms an opening. The sound absorption materials are filled in the accommodation cavity 20. The insulation structure 3 covers the whole opening of the retaining wall 2.

The insulation structure 3 comprises a sound filter 31 and a support ring 32. The support ring 32 is installed around the sound filter 31 accordingly. In this embodiment, the support ring 32 is pressed and set on the periphery of the sound filter 31, i.e. the sound filter 31 is clamped between the support ring 32 and the retaining wall 2. The sound filter 31 and the support ring 32 are stuck and fixed, and it is fine that the end surface of the retaining wall 2 is fixed to the periphery of the support ring 32. In the other embodiment, the support ring 32 can also be clamped between the sound filter 31 and the retaining wall 2, and the upper end and lower end of the support ring 32 can be fixed to the retaining wall 2 and the sound filter 31 respectively, in order to avoid the damage to the sound filter 31 by direct fixation of the sound filter 31 and the retaining wall 2. As shown in FIG. 1, the retaining wall 2 and the housing 1 are integrated. Understandably, the retaining wall 2 can form an accommodation cavity for accommodating the sound absorption material independently, and then it is inserted into the housing 1. The sound filter 31 can be made of non-woven fabrics, nylon woven net, wool woven net, metal net or paper etc. The support ring 31 can be made of metal ring and plastic ring etc.

Multiple hot melting columns 21 and step parts 22 are set at the end of the retaining wall 2. Specifically, the retaining wall 2 comprises an inside towards the accommodation cavity 20, and an outside opposite to the inside. The upper surface of the retaining wall is connected to the inside and the outside. The hot melting column 21 is set on the upper surface. The step part 22 is formed at the joint between the inside and the upper surface. In this embodiment, the accommodation cavity 20 enclosed by the retaining wall 2 is rectangular, and four hot melting columns 21 are located at four corners of the accommodation cavity 20 respectively.

The periphery of the sound filter 31 is clamped between the step part 22 and the support ring 32. The support ring 32 is heated, melted and fixed to the retaining wall 2 by hot melting column 21. The sound filter 31 and the periphery of the support ring 32 are bridged and connected to the step part 22, in order to make the dustproof structure 3 and the retaining wall 2 form an effective seal structure. The support ring 32 is away from the surface at the bottom of the accommodation cavity 20, which is at the same level on the upper surface. Preferably, the internal diameter of the support ring 32 is less than the size of the opening, and its external diameter is more than the size of the opening. The size of the sound filter 31 is consistent with the size of the external diameter of the support ring 32.

Further, each of the sound filter 31 and the support ring 32 is set with an opening part which avoids the hot melting column 21. In this embodiment, both the sound filter 31 and the support ring 32 are rectangular, and the opening parts are located at four angles of the sound filter 31 and the support ring 32.

Further, the sound filter 31 and the support ring 32 are struck and fixed by glue.

A speaker 100 provided by this utility model has the helpful results as follows:

The dustproof structure 3 comprises a sound filter 31 and a support ring 32 stuck and fixed to the sound filter 31, and the support ring 32 encapsulates the sound filter 31 indirectly, in order to avoid the problem where the sound filter can't be encapsulated directly by hot melting due to too high melting point;

Further, firstly the sound filter 31 is stuck and fixed to the support ring 32, and then the support ring 32 is fixed to the retaining wall 2 by hot melting column 21, in order to avoid the direct hot melting or gluing on the retaining wall 2, and reduce the pollution and damage to the sound filter 31, and protect the performance of the sound filter 31 from being damaged, and guarantee the acoustic performance of the speaker;

There is also a step part 22 set in the end of the retaining wall 2, and the sound filter 31 and the periphery of the support ring 32 are clamped and connected to the step part 22, and the support ring 32 can be pressed only by local hot point, in order to form the effective seal, which is convenient for processing.

It is to be understood, however, that even though numerous characteristics and advantages of the present exemplary embodiment have been set forth in the foregoing description, together with details of the structures and functions of the embodiment, the disclosure is illustrative only, and changes may be made in detail, especially in matters of shape, size, and arrangement of parts within the principles of the invention to the full extent indicated by the broad general meaning of the terms where the appended claims are expressed.
