MAGNETICALLY BIASED ELECTROMAGNET FOR AUDIO APPLICATIONS |
摘要 |
An electronic device having an enclosure having a top panel and a bottom panel. An electromagnet is mounted within the enclosure, the electromagnet having a core portion attached to the top panel and a coil connected to the core portion. An attractor plate is attached to the bottom panel, the attractor plate forming part of a magnetic circuit of the electromagnet such that when an electrical audio signal is applied to the electromagnet, the bottom panel vibrates and produces a sound. A permanent magnet is further attached to the core portion, the permanent magnet is configured to create a bias in the magnetic circuit so as to modify a distortion in the sound. |

1. An electronic device comprising:
an enclosure having a top panel and a bottom panel; an electromagnet mounted within the enclosure, the electromagnet having a core portion attached to the top panel and a coil connected to the core portion; an attractor plate attached to the bottom panel, the attractor plate forming part of a magnetic circuit of the electromagnet such that input of an electrical audio signal to the electromagnet causes the bottom panel to move and produce a sound; and a permanent magnet attached to the core portion, the permanent magnet configured to create a bias in the magnetic circuit so as to modify a distortion in the sound. |
