[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a
small electroacoustic transducer used for electronic devices, and more particularly to a small
electroacoustic transducer suitable for installation in a storage space located above a liquid
crystal display of a mobile phone. .
[0002]
2. Description of the Related Art FIG. 3 is a structural view of a speaker in Conventional Example
1, and FIG. 3 (a) is a rear view. Band-shaped springs 31 are provided on both sides of the speaker
30 disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 11-136795 shown in the figure. The
contact point on the spring 31 is disposed on the longitudinal center line of the speaker 30 so
that the contact can be stabilized. Further, the dimension d of the bent portion of the spring 31
protrudes from the case of the speaker 30.
[0003]

speaker 30 is installed in the storage space 7, it is necessary to shorten the length in the vertical
direction of the speaker 30 as much as possible. However, in the conventional example 1, the
speaker 30 can not be installed unless the width of the storage space 7 in the longitudinal
direction is made extra by the dimension d of the bent portion of the spring 31.
[0004]
FIG. 4 is a structural view of an electro-acoustic transducer for a portable telephone in
Conventional Example 2, and (a) is a front view. The electro-acoustic transducer 40 for portable
telephones disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2000-201396 shown in the
figure is a portable electro-acoustic conversion for portable telephones as the portable
telephones are reduced in size and weight, and the liquid crystal display screen is enlarged. In
consideration of the fact that the space occupied by the vessel is necessarily smaller, space
saving is achieved by changing the shape from circular to track. A terminal plate 41 is provided
on the right side of the mobile phone electro-acoustic transducer 40.
[0005]
(B) is a schematic view showing a state in which the electro-acoustic transducer for mobile phone
is attached to the mobile phone, and the electro-acoustic transducer 40 for mobile phone is
located above the liquid crystal display portion 6 of the mobile phone 5 The state of being
installed in the space 7 is shown. The electro-acoustic transducer 40 for a portable telephone in
the drawing is a diagram in which a cap having a sound hole 42 is attached. When the cellular
phone electroacoustic transducer 40 is installed in the storage space 7, it is preferable from the
viewpoint of reduction in size and weight that the longitudinal length of the cellular phone
electroacoustic transducer 40 be as short as possible. However, in the second prior art, in order
for the terminal board 41 to abut against the upper curved frame of the storage space 7, it is
necessary to widen the width in the vertical direction of the storage space 7.
[0006]
In the first prior art, the longitudinal direction of the spring 31 of the speaker 30 is the
longitudinal direction, and it protrudes from the case of the speaker 30 by the dimension d of the
bent portion. That portion is a dead space of the storage space 7 where the speaker 30 is
installed, which is an obstacle to space saving.

[0007]
Further, in the second conventional example, the electroacoustic transducer 40 for a cellular
phone is made to be circular to track-shaped to cope with space saving, and in order to improve
the defect that the shape of the spring 31 is downward, It is. However, since the contour shape of
the upper part of the mobile phone 5 is rounded, there is a limitation in projecting the terminal
plate 41 in the lateral direction, which hinders downsizing.
[0008]
The present invention has been made in view of these points, and provides a space-saving type
small electroacoustic transducer having an improved spring mounting direction and mounting
method capable of coping with a narrow storage space of an electric device such as a mobile
phone. The purpose is

The strip-shaped spring 11 is installed in the recess 12 so that the longitudinal direction is
parallel to the opposite side of the rectangle, and the protrusion due to the radius of the spring
11 bent on the back side fits within the range of the recess 12.
[0015]
The spring 11 is in the lateral direction so as to be parallel to the opposite side of the rectangle,
and the terminal having the function of the spring 11 is housed in the unit shape (semicircle +
rectangle), and the lower end of the spring 31 as in the prior art 1 Is prevented from protruding
outside, dead space is prevented from occurring, space saving, and miniaturization by this are
achieved.
Note that this space-saving structure can also cope with the width of the storage space 7 of the
mobile phone 5.
[0016]
Furthermore, in the conventional example 1, since the spring 31 has a shape projecting from the
central part to the lower part of the unit, the size of the spring 31 is long and the shape is large,
and thus expensive cost beryllium copper is used. In the present invention, the size of the spring
11 is made smaller than that of the conventional example 1 because the size of the spring 11 is
smaller than that of the conventional example 1. Therefore, the cost increase can be suppressed
even using beryllium copper. Also, upon assembly, the spring 11 can be bent into a U-shape to be
easily formed into a spring shape.
[0017]
In addition, since the terminal plate 41 does not protrude sideways as in the second related art,
the restriction in the width direction of the storage space 7 located above the liquid crystal
display unit 6 of the mobile phone 5 is not received.
