Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present disclosure provides a linear vibration motor, including: a base having an accommodating space, a vibration system accommodated in the accommodating space, an elastic member configured to fix and suspend the vibration system in the accommodating space, and a drive system fixed on the base. The vibration system includes an annular magnetic steel unit fixed on the elastic member. The drive system includes a first coil and a second coil that are fixed on the base and stacked together. The magnetic steel unit surrounds both the first coil and the second coil and is disposed separately from the first coil and second coil. An orthogonal projection of the magnetic steel unit in a direction towards the drive system at least partially falls in the first coil and the second coil, respectively. Compared with related technologies, the linear vibration motor of the present disclosure has better vibration performance.
