Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A speaker device includes: a diaphragm that radiates sound; an edge arranged in an outer periphery of the diaphragm; a frame arranged in an outer periphery of the edge, and including an annular attachment part connected to an outer peripheral region of the edge; and a connecting member arranged between the outer peripheral region and the attachment part and adhered to the outer peripheral region and the attachment part. An inner diameter of the attachment part is less than an inner diameter of the outer peripheral region.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A speaker device comprising: a diaphragm that radiates sound; an edge arranged in an outer periphery of the diaphragm; and a connecting member arranged between an outer peripheral region of the edge and an attachment part facing the outer peripheral region of the edge, wherein a width of the connecting member is greater than a width of the outer peripheral region of the edge, and an inner diameter of the connecting member is less than an inner diameter of the outer peripheral region of the edge. 2. The speaker device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the attachment part is provided on a metallic component supporting a magnetic circuit of the speaker device. 3. The speaker device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a shape of an outer periphery of the connecting member follows a shape of an outer periphery of the edge. 4. The speaker device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein an outer diameter of the connecting member is substantially the same as an outer diameter of the edge. 5. The speaker device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the connecting member is adhered to the outer peripheral region of the edge and the attachment part. 6. The speaker device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the connecting member is made in an annular shape. 7. The speaker device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the edge is made of resin, and the attachment part is made of metal.
