HEARING-IMPAIRED PERSON ASSISTANCE SPEAKER

摘要

It is a purpose of the present invention to provide a hearing-impaired person assistance speaker that emits sound waves having an increased sound pressure level so as to provide improved original sound production capabilities. The inner circumferential face of a coupler 199 is bonded to one end of a bobbin 124 that is the other end thereof around which a coil 148 is wound. A portion of the coupler 199 configured so that it extends outward is bonded to a vibrating unit 121. As described above, the bobbin 124 and the vibrating unit 121 are coupled with each other via the coupler 199, instead of a line-contact connection structure that connects them. This reduces an amount of adhesive agent that can lead to degradation in the sound clarity. Thus, the present embodiment provides improved sound clarity of the sound to be received by a hearing-impaired person.

主权项

1. A hearing-impaired person assistance speaker which is configured to emit a sound signal in a form of sound toward a hearing-impaired person, the sound signal outputted from a microphone that acquired a sound, comprising:
an enclosure having an opening, and a cavity that communicates with the opening; a vibrating unit held such that a sound emitting plane thereof faces the opening; a magnetic circuit having a magnetic gap, and held in the cavity side such that the magnetic gap faces the vibrating unit; a bobbin having a structure in which a coil is wound around an outer circumferential face of one end thereof, and the aforementioned one end around which the coil is wound is arranged within the magnetic gap; and a coupler having a cylindrical structure in which one end thereof is configured such that it extends outward, wherein an inner circumferential face of the coupler is bonded to the other end of the bobbin, i.e., an end opposite to the end thereof around which the coil is wound, wherein the portion of the coupler thus configured such that it extends outward is bonded to the vibrating unit, wherein the enclosure has an egg-shaped curved inner wall, wherein the vibrating unit comprises a honeycomb core having a hollow honeycomb structure and two films formed of an aluminum material and arranged so as to cover the honeycomb core from both sides thereof, wherein the vibrating unit is held in the enclosure at a position that is recessed closer to an inner side of the cavity than the opening, wherein a portion between the opening of the enclosure and the vibrating unit is configured to have a straight pipe shape, wherein the honeycomb core has a regular hexagonal honeycomb structure, wherein each regular hexagonal shape of the honeycomb core is configured to have sides having a length of 1 mm, wherein the enclosure has a structure in which a first cup body and a second cup body are coupled with each other so as to form a single unit having an egg-shaped cavity, wherein the first cup body and the second cup body are components of the enclosure, each have an outer circumferential periphery having a maximum diameter at a coupling portion at which the first cup body and the second cup body are coupled with each other, wherein a first hole is formed in the first cup body, which is configured as an aperture that communicates between a rear end of the first cup body and the cavity configured as an internal space, wherein a recess is formed in an outer wall of the first cup body such that the recess is recessed toward a side of the cavity, and wherein the enclosure has a second hole extending from the recess toward the second cup body so as to form an aperture in the second cup body.
