The vibration system 3 includes a vibration diaphragm 31 arranged on one side of the frame 1, and the vibration diaphragm 31 includes a dome 311 in the middle and a suspension 312 around the outer side of the dome 311. The suspension 312 includes a first fixed part 3121 connected to the outer edge of the dome 311, a suspension part 3122 extending outward from an end of the first fixed part 3121 away from the dome 311, and a second fixed part 3123 extending from the outer edge of the suspension part 3122 in a direction away from the first fixed part 3121. The suspension part 3122 includes two short axle parts 31221 disposed opposite to each other, two long axle parts 31222 disposed opposite to each other, and a corner part 31223 connecting the adjacent short axle parts 31221 and long axle parts 31222. The vibration diaphragm 31 also includes a reinforcement assembly 313 connected to the corner part 31223 and connected to the first fixed part 3121 and the second fixed part 3123 respectively at both ends.


In the present invention, the suspension 312 is runway type, the suspension part 3122 is bent away from the frame 1, and reinforcement assembly 313 is added at the corner part 31223 of the suspension 312 to connect the first fixed part 3121, corner part 31223 and second fixed part 3123, which improves the strength of the suspension 312. When the vibration diaphragm 31 vibrates, it can provide a better balance of the vibration system 3, suppress the rocking motion to the greatest extent, and make the speaker obtain better acoustic performance.


Further, referring to FIGS. 2 and 3, the reinforcement assembly 313 includes a support part 3131 protruding from one side of the corner part 31223 and extending in the direction from the first fixed part 3121 toward the second fixed part 3123, and a reinforcement component 3132 connected to the support part 3131. One end of reinforcement component 3132 is connected to first fixed part 3121 and the other end is connected to second fixed part 3123.
