DESCRIPTION JP2009089302 The present invention relates to a speaker diaphragm, a speaker, an electronic device, and an apparatus used for an audio device, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a highquality speaker diaphragm with less environmental load. . In order to achieve this object, according to the present invention, by forming a diaphragm for a speaker from resin of plant material, natural mineral and plant fiber, the heat resistance and the strength are high, and the appearance is excellent. It is configured to be able to realize a high-quality speaker diaphragm with less environmental load. [Selected figure] Figure 1 Speaker diaphragm, speaker using the same, electronic apparatus and apparatus using the speaker [0001] The present invention relates to a speaker diaphragm used for various audio devices and video devices, and electronic devices and devices such as speakers, stereo sets, and television sets using the same. [0002] The prior art will be described with reference to FIG. [0003] FIG. 6 is a cross-sectional view of a conventional resin-made speaker diaphragm by injection molding. 10-05-2019 1 [0004] As shown in FIG. 6, the speaker diaphragm 31 is obtained by thermally dissolving resin pellets in a mold whose shape is set in advance using a resin such as polypropylene, and injection molding. [0005] As a kind of resin material by these injection molding, single materials, such as a polypropylene, are generally used well. [0006] In addition to the above, there has been a blend type using resins of different types for the purpose of adjusting physical property values as a diaphragm, that is, adjusting characteristics of a speaker and sound quality. [0007] Furthermore, with regard to adjustment of physical property values that are difficult to adjust with these resins, reinforcing materials such as mica were mixed to perform adjustment of physical property values, and adjustment of characteristics as a speaker and sound quality. [0008] However, they have a large environmental impact because polypropylene, which is the base resin, is derived from petroleum. [0009] Therefore, in recent years, with the movement of de-petrochemical work, studies using plantderived polylactic acid as a resin have been actively conducted. [0010] As prior art document information related to the invention of this application, for example, Patent Document 1 is known. 10-05-2019 2 JP, 2005-260546, A [0011] In the speaker diaphragm using the conventional polylactic acid, high reliability can not be realized due to insufficient heat resistance, and problems in sound quality have been left in terms of insufficient strength and low elastic modulus. [0012] An object of the present invention is to solve the above-mentioned problems, and to provide a high-quality speaker diaphragm with less environmental load. [0013] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention constitutes a speaker diaphragm from resin of plant material, natural mineral and plant fiber. [0014] With this configuration, natural minerals and plant fibers promote the crystallization of polylactic acid, and have the effect of improving heat resistance, which is a problem. In addition, the sound speed of the speaker diaphragm is increased in order not only to promote crystallization but also to improve the elastic modulus. Plant fibers also have the effect of improving internal loss. [0015] Therefore, it becomes a speaker diaphragm with high sound quality and small environmental load. [0016] As described above, according to the present invention, the diaphragm for the speaker is configured from the resin of the plant raw material, the natural mineral and the plant fiber. 10-05-2019 3 [0017] With this configuration, it is possible to improve heat resistance by promoting crystallization, which is a problem of polylactic acid. [0018] In addition, both natural minerals and plant fibers have the effect of improving the elastic modulus, and plant fibers also have the effect of improving the internal loss, so distortion and resonance can be suppressed. [0019] Therefore, the diaphragm for speakers comprised from resin of a plant raw material, natural mineral, and plant fiber can be made into a high-sound quality diaphragm for speakers with less environmental load than the conventional resin diaphragm. [0020] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described using the drawings. [0021] (Embodiment 1) The inventions according to claims 1 to 11 of the present invention will be described with reference to Embodiment 1 below. [0022] FIG. 1 shows a cross-sectional view of a diaphragm according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 shows a plan view of the diaphragm according to an embodiment of the present invention. [0023] As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the diaphragm 1 uses resin of a plant raw material as a base resin, and polylactic acid 1A with a high bending elastic modulus is preferable for selection of resin. 10-05-2019 4 Natural minerals and plant fibers are uniformly dispersed in this polylactic acid 1A. Here, preferably, it is preferable to select mica 1B as a natural mineral and bamboo fiber 1C as a plant fiber. The diaphragm 1 is formed by injection molding a material in which mica 1B and bamboo fiber 1C are uniformly dispersed in the polylactic acid 1A. [0024] With this configuration, the mica 1B and the bamboo fiber 1C promote the crystallization of the polylactic acid 1A, so that the injection molding cycle can be shortened, and the heat resistance which is the problem is improved. In addition, since bamboo fiber 1C is hard and has flexibility, it has an effect of improving the elastic modulus and an effect of improving the internal loss. [0025] As a result, it becomes a speaker diaphragm having a high elastic modulus and a high internal loss, and the speaker using this has higher sound quality. [0026] Moreover, bamboo has a large deodorizing effect and does not have an odor specific to plant fibers, so it can be widely used in car speakers and indoor audio. [0027] In addition to the effect of adjusting physical properties to improve the sound quality, bamboo fiber can increase the plant density, and can improve the sound quality while reducing the environmental load. 10-05-2019 5 The term "vegetality" as used herein refers to the percentage by weight of the material comprising plant material, and refers to the total percentage by weight of the resin of plant material and the plant fiber contained in the speaker diaphragm. In the case of petroleum raw materials, carbon dioxide generated at the time of incineration disposal of the diaphragm means that carbon dioxide is newly generated as the reason that environmental load decreases as the plant density increases, but plants are carbon dioxide by photosynthesis. In order to absorb the carbon dioxide, it is possible to reduce net carbon dioxide emissions because a part of the carbon dioxide generated at the time of incineration disposal contains the carbon dioxide originally held by the plant. [0028] Therefore, the speaker diaphragm made of polylactic acid, mica and bamboo fiber is environmentally friendly and can realize better sound quality. [0029] The fiber length of the bamboo fiber to be mixed is preferably 0.2 mm or more and 5 mm or less. If the fiber length of bamboo fiber is shorter than 0.2 mm, the effect of bamboo fiber can not be efficiently obtained, and a high elastic modulus can not be expected. If the fiber length of bamboo fiber is longer than 5 mm, the appearance will be impaired when the diaphragm is made thin. Therefore, in order to obtain a high performance and high quality speaker diaphragm, it is preferable to select a fiber length of bamboo fiber of 0.2 mm or more and 5 mm or less. [0030] The amount of bamboo fiber mixed is preferably 5% by weight or more and 55% by weight or less, and more preferably 10% by weight or more and 30% by weight or less. 10-05-2019 6 [0031] When the content of bamboo fiber is 5% by weight or less, the effect of bamboo fiber does not appear remarkably, and when it is 55% by weight or more, uniform dispersion of bamboo fiber in resin becomes difficult. [0032] In particular, when bamboo fibers of 30% by weight or more are included, it is difficult to obtain a diaphragm having a surface thickness of 0.3 mm or less by injection molding because the flowability of the resin is low. [0033] Furthermore, it is more preferable that the bamboo fiber further includes bamboo fiber refined to a microfibrillated state with an average fiber diameter of 10 μm or less. [0034] By the presence of bamboo fibers refined to the microfibrillar state, the entanglement of bamboo fibers becomes strong, and thus the strength is improved. Therefore, the elastic modulus is also improved, and higher sound quality can be realized. [0035] Also, in general, the higher the aspect ratio (L / D), which is the ratio of fiber length L to fiber diameter D, the higher the elasticity, and the bamboo fiber which has been made fine to the microfibrillated state has a high aspect ratio and therefore a high elastic modulus Can expect. [0036] In addition, the presence of bamboo fibers partially refined to a microfibrillated state also has the effect of strengthening the bonds between the fibers, which are synergistic to provide a high elastic modulus. [0037] 10-05-2019 7 Also, if you want to make bamboo fiber more natural and brighter, bamboo powder may be used for some or all of the bamboo fibers. If the content of bamboo fiber mentioned above exceeds 30% by weight, the defect that molding becomes difficult is also alleviated by using bamboo powder, and the total content of bamboo fiber and bamboo powder which is not in powder form is 55% by weight Injection molding is easily possible in the following cases. [0038] Moreover, since the degree of planting of the material is increased, it is possible to obtain a speaker diaphragm with less environmental load. The term "plant degree" as used herein refers to the total weight of plant raw resin produced from corn and plant fibers such as bamboo fiber, and how to reduce the emission of carbon dioxide, which is a greenhouse gas, without using petroleum-derived materials It will be an indication of what you can do. [0039] Further, the elastic modulus can be further improved by further adding a carbonized material, and in particular, by using bamboo charcoal, the elastic modulus can be increased without lowering the degree of plant. [0040] In addition, bamboo charcoal usually plays the role of a carbon-based pigment used in a speaker diaphragm for a black-based color, and it is possible not only to improve the sound quality, but also to have a high-quality appearance. [0041] The bamboo charcoal referred to here refers to a granular material obtained by cutting a bamboo material to a suitable size in advance and carbonizing it at a high temperature of about 800 ° C. and then grinding it. 10-05-2019 8 [0042] Further, it may further contain a conventional petroleum resin. In particular, polypropylene is preferable for petroleum resins. Polypropylene itself has a large internal loss and a low specific gravity, so the weight of the diaphragm can be reduced and the internal loss can be increased. [0043] Examples of the subclaims of the present invention will be described below, but this example does not limit the scope of the present invention. [0044] Example 1 Melt-kneaded resin having a composition of polylactic acid content of 25% by weight, mica content of 15% by weight, bamboo fiber content of 15% by weight, and polypropylene content of 45% by weight Pellets were produced and injection molded at a molding temperature of 200 ° C. to obtain a speaker diaphragm of 16 cm in diameter. [0045] Comparative Example 1 A speaker diaphragm was obtained in the same manner as in Example 1 using only polylactic acid. [0046] Comparative Example 2 A speaker diaphragm was obtained in the same manner as in Example 1 with a composition having a content of polypropylene of 85% by weight and a content of mica of 15% by weight. [0047] 10-05-2019 9 <Evaluation of Physical Properties> The specific gravity of the above-mentioned diaphragm was measured. And the sample of 32 mm x 5 mm size which is one part was extracted, and the elastic modulus, the internal loss, and the sound velocity were measured. The results of these measurements are shown in the table below. [0048] [0049] From the said table ¦ surface, it is clear compared with the diaphragm for speakers of the comparative example 1 that the diaphragm for speakers of Example 1 is improving sound speed and internal loss. [0050] Further, the speaker diaphragm of Comparative Example 2 is a diaphragm in which 15% by weight of mica is contained as a reinforcing material in polypropylene of petroleum-derived resin which is a conventional industrial product, but compared with Comparative Example 2 with sound velocity Internal losses are improving. [0051] <Heat resistance evaluation> The heat resistance was evaluated by leaving it to stand in a thermostat for 240 hours in an atmosphere at a temperature of 100 ° C. for Example 1, Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 2. [0052] Although corrugation was confirmed on the outer periphery of the diaphragm only in Comparative Example 1, no deformation was observed in Example 1 and Comparative Example 2. [0053] 10-05-2019 10 As described above, according to the present invention, by constituting the speaker diaphragm from the resin of the plant raw material, the natural mineral and the plant fiber, it is possible to improve the insufficient heat resistance and the insufficient strength which are the disadvantages of the conventional polylactic acid. Sound velocity and internal loss are improved. In addition to the improvement in sound quality, the diaphragm is made of a material having a higher degree of plantiness than in the prior art, so it is possible to obtain a high-quality speaker diaphragm with less environmental load.

Then, one end of the voice coil 8 is coupled to the central portion of the diaphragm 1, and the other end is coupled to be fitted into the magnetic gap 6 of the magnetic circuit 5. 10-05-2019 11 [0058] The above has described the speaker having the internal magnet type magnetic circuit 5, but the present invention is not limited to this, and may be applied to a speaker having the external magnet type magnetic circuit.

With this configuration, it is possible to obtain the mini component system 14 which has high environmental quality and high quality with less environmental load which can not be realized conventionally. [0063] In addition, although the mini component system 14 for audio was demonstrated as an application to the apparatus of the speaker 10, it is not limited to this.
