First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A speaker, comprising: a membrane comprising a main body and a periphery portion surrounding the main body; a voice coil connected to the membrane; and a vibration part attached on the membrane; wherein one of the vibration part and the main body comprises a protrusion protruding away from the voice coil, and the other one of the vibration part and the main body comprises a recess portion recessed towards the voice coil and corresponding to the protrusion; wherein the vibration part is attached on a bottom surface of the membrane; and the protrusion is formed at the main body of the membrane, and the recess portion is formed at the vibration part. 2. The speaker of claim 1 , wherein the vibration part is attached on a top surface of the membrane; the protrusion is formed at the vibration part, and the recess portion is formed at the main body of the membrane. 3. The speaker of claim 1 , further comprising a magnetic system, wherein the magnetic system comprises a magnet and a pole plate attached on the magnet. 4. The speaker of claim 3 , wherein the pole plate comprises a groove corresponding to the recess portion, the groove is configured for receiving the recess portion during vibration of the membrane. 5. The speaker of claim 3 , wherein the pole plate comprises a through hole corresponding to the recess portion, the through hole is configured for receiving the recess portion during vibration of the membrane. 6. The speaker of claim 3 , wherein the magnetic system further comprises a yoke for receiving the magnet and the pole plate, the yoke comprises a bottom and a plurality of sidewalls extending perpendicularly from the bottom. 7. The speaker of claim 6 , wherein the magnet comprises a plurality of side surfaces facing the sidewalls of the yoke for forming magnetic gaps between the magnet and the yoke. 8. The speaker of claim 7 , wherein the voice coil is suspended in the magnetic gaps. 9. The speaker of claim 3 , further comprising a holder for holding the magnetic system, and the periphery portion of the membrane is adhered to an edge of the holder.
