DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS

The present disclosure is further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It is appreciated that, the described embodiments are merely some of rather than all of the embodiments of the present disclosure. All other embodiments acquired by those skilled in the art without creative efforts based on the embodiments of the present disclosure shall fall within the protection scope of the present disclosure.


The present disclosure discloses a vibration system 2, a sounding device and an electronic device, intended mainly to solve the technical problem of poor symmetry of assembly between a holder 23 and a dome 22 in the related art. Referring to FIG. 1 to FIG. 6, the present disclosure discloses a vibration system 2. The vibration system 2 includes a voice membrane fixed to a sounding device, a voice coil 24 received in the sounding device and configured to drive the voice membrane to vibrate, and a holder 23 supporting the voice coil 24. The voice membrane includes a dome 22 and a first diaphragm 21 arranged around the dome 22. The dome 22 and the first diaphragm 21 are fixed to the holder 23. The holder 23 is provided with a pad 5. The voice coil 24 is connected to the pad 5 through a lead wire. The dome 22 includes a first end close to the pad 5 and a second end away from the pad 5 and arranged opposite to the first end. The second end is provided with a positioning portion 221. The holder 23 is provided with a sink 231 configured to receive the positioning portion 221. The dome 22 is positioned with the holder 23 through the positioning portion 221 and the sink 231.


In an embodiment, two side surfaces of the holder 23 are fixedly connected to the dome 22 and the voice coil 24, respectively. The sink 231 is arranged on a surface of the holder 23 connected to the dome 22, that is, an upper surface of the holder 23. Two sinks 231 are located on a same side. Optionally, the two sinks 231 are arranged symmetrically with respect to a central axis of the holder 23. A cross section of the sink 231 may be in a shape of a rectangle, a square or a trapezoid. The dome 22 is provided with a first end and a second end. The first end and the second end are two end portions in a length direction of the dome 22, respectively, and the first end is close to the pad 5. The second end of the dome 22 is provided with a same number of positioning portions 221 as the sink 231. The positioning portion 221 is at a certain angle with a surface of the dome 22 to enable the dome 22 to be placed in the sink 231 through the positioning portion 221. Optionally, the angle between the positioning portion 221 and the dome 22 is 90 degrees. The shape and the size of the positioning portion 221 are set such that it can extend into the sink 231, which may be a rectangular block, a square block or a trapezoidal block. A top corner of the positioning portion 221 may be rounded. Through the engagement of the positioning portion 221 with the sink 231, symmetry of assembly between the dome 22 and the holder 23 can be ensured, and the two sinks 231 and the positioning portion 221 are further arranged in axial symmetry, which can further improve the symmetry of assembly between the dome 22 and the holder 23.


In addition, since the holder 23 is provided with the pad 5, two ends of the overall sounding device corresponding to positions of the first end and the second end of the dome 22 have different mass. That is, the mass is different on two sides of a central axis in a width direction of the dome 22, resulting in asymmetry of the mass. The mass of the pad 5 can be balanced through the positioning portion 221, so the sounding device to which the vibration system 2 of this embodiment is applied can have symmetric mass and produce better sound quality.


In other embodiments, the positioning portion 221 extends from an edge of the dome 22 to the sink 231. The dome 22 is provided with a first notch 222, and the positioning portion 221 is received in the first notch 222. The dome 22 is provided with the first notch 222 with a V-shaped opening at a position corresponding to the positioning portion 221. The positioning portion 221 is of an L-shaped structure. A short side of the positioning portion 221 is fixedly connected to the opening of the first notch 222.


In an embodiment, the dome 22 is of a rectangular plate structure, and the positioning portion 221 is of an L-shaped structure. An end surface of the dome 22 is provided with the first notch 222 with the V-shaped opening at the position corresponding to the positioning portion 221. The positioning portion 221 is fixedly connected to the V-shaped opening, and the V-shaped opening is filled to form two small V openings. The positioning portion 221 and the dome 22 are of an integrally-formed structure. The arrangement of the first notch 222 can facilitate the positioning portion 221 to be flush with the dome 22 and, at the same time, can reduce the mass of the dome 22.

The second extension arm 234 is arranged at two ends in a length direction of the main body portion 236, which is formed by bending from an outer periphery of the main body portion 236 in a same direction as the first extension arm 233. An extension length of the second extension arm 234 is greater than that of the first extension arm 233. The dome 22, the voice coil 24 and the first diaphragm 21 are connected through the holder 23, and the holder 23 and the dome 22 are symmetrically arranged and assembled, which can effectively improve uniformity of sound output by the voice coil 24.


The first diaphragm 21 includes an extension portion 211, a first suspension 212 and a first connection portion 213. The first diaphragm 21 is of a rectangular ring structure.
