Abstract
An integrated sound generator/vibrator has a higher frequency responsive sound producing body and a low frequency responsive vibrating body which may be operated simultaneously or separately. In one embodiment, a pole piece is anchored to the center of a spring body, and armatures are fastened to the center of a compliant diaphragm facing the pole piece. Magnets and excitation coils are fastened in a case to surround the pole piece. In another embodiment, a voice coil is fastened to the center of a compliant diaphragm, a magnet is anchored to the center of a spring body, and the diaphragm and spring body are positioned to face each other with the magnet centered in the voice coil. In a variation of the second embodiment, a magnetic unit comprising a pole piece, a ring magnet, and a yoke is attached to the spring body. The magnetic circuit in each design selectively produces a high frequency field which operates the high frequency diaphragm, and/or a low frequency field which moves the pole piece or central magnet on the spring body to cause vibrations.
