Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Field of the Invention
[0001] The present invention relates to a loudspeaker
used as audio equipment, in particular to a loudspeaker
having an edge at an outer periphery of a diaphragm,
wherein an outer end of the edge is attached on an attaching surface which is formed at the inside of an outer
peripheral rim of a speaker frame.
[0002] The present application claims priority from
Japanese Application No. 2001-304862.

[0021] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be explained referring to the drawings. The
same reference numerals will be used to the same portion
as one of the conventional example to omit the same
explanation. Fig. 1a is a top plan view as an explanatory
view for showing a construction of a loudspeaker according to an embodiment of the present invention. Fig. 1b is
a sectional view taken along a line A-A of Fig. 1a.
[0022] In this embodiment, a center portion of a diaphragm 20 is fixed at the vicinity of an upper end of a coil
bobbin 6, while an outer periphery of the diaphragm 20
is connected with an annular edge 21. At an outer end
of the edge 21 is formed an outer end portion 21A for
attaching the outer end of edge upon an attaching surface
10b, which is formed at an inside of an outer peripheral
rim 10a of a speaker frame 10.
[0023] The outer end portion 21A is integrally formed
with the edge 21 by a pressurized forming of, for example,
urethane or rubber, and has a desired wall thickness,
wherein it is formed with a direction to the inside from the
outer most periphery of the edge 21. A depth surface of
the outer end portion 21A is bonded onto the attaching
surface 10b of the speaker frame 10, and an outer peripheral surface 21a thereof abuts on the inside of the
outer peripheral rim 10a of the speaker frame 10.
[0024] According to such a construction, the outer periphery of the edge 21 can be provided adjacently to the
outer peripheral rim 10a of the speaker frame 10, thereby
enlarging an outer diameter L formed by the diaphragm

Claims
1.
A loudspeaker comprising:
a diaphragm (20);
an edge (21) attached to an outer periphery of
the diaphragm (20); and
a speaker frame (10),
wherein an outer end portion (21A) of the edge
(21) is attached upon an attaching surface (10b)
formed at an inside of an outer peripheral rim
(10a) of the speaker frame (10), the outer end
portion (21A) being formed with a generally
wedge-shaped inwardly tapering cross-sectional profile from the outer periphery surface of the
edge (21), wherein,
an outer peripheral surface (21a) of the wedgeshaped outer end portion (21A) abuts on the outer peripheral rim (10a) of the speaker frame (10)
to perform positioning of the edge (21), and
wherein the edge (21) extends away from the
tapered surface of the wedge-shaped outer end
portion (21A) at a point which is radially inward
of the outer peripheral surface (21a) of the
wedge-shaped outer end portion (21A).
