From such a background, as a speaker device corresponding to incorporation into a small
information device, a speaker unit for driving a diaphragm by a voice coil, and a resin frame that
accommodates the speaker unit and serves as an attachment frame to a device case And a pair of
metal spring terminals fixedly mounted on the resin frame, and the output terminal on the device
side circuit board assembled to the device case is electrically supplied to the voice coil through
the pair of spring terminals. Various configurations for connection have been proposed (see, for

By the way, conventionally, in the spring terminal in the above speaker device, the frame bonding
portion and the lead connection portion are directly surfaced on the surface of the frame in order
to secure a large contact surface with the frame and stabilize fixation to the frame. It was
considered to be finished in a series of flat plates in contact.
[0007]
However, when soldering the lead from the voice coil to the lead connection portion of the spring
terminal attached to the frame, the heat of soldering is easily transmitted to the frame through
the lead connection portion. The surface of the resin frame melts with the heat of soldering,
resulting in a shift in the mounting position of the spring terminal, resulting in electrical
connection between the elastic connection piece of the spring terminal and the output terminal
on the device side circuit board There is a possibility that connection failure etc. may occur.
[0008]
As a problem to be solved by the present invention, there is no risk that the resin frame on which
the spring terminal is mounted is melted by the heat when soldering the lead from the voice coil
