Abstract

A speaker box includes a housing including a bottom wall and a side wall extending from the bottom wall, and a speaker unit in the housing. The speaker box further includes hard sound-absorbing material for supporting and integrally molded with the side wall. The hard sound-absorbing material forms an accommodation space for accommodating the speaker unit therein. The present disclosure further discloses a method for manufacturing the speaker box mentioned above.

Claims

1. A speaker box including:

a housing including a bottom wall and a side wall extending from the bottom wall;

a speaker unit in the housing;

hard sound-absorbing material for supporting and integrally molded with the side wall;

wherein

the hard sound-absorbing material forms an accommodation space for accommodating the speaker unit therein.

2. The speaker box as described in claim 1, wherein the speaker unit includes a vibration system and a magnetic circuit system, the vibration system includes a vibrating diaphragm and a voice coil for driving the vibrating diaphragm.

3. The speaker box as described in claim 2, wherein the side wall includes a side portion extending perpendicularly from the bottom wall.

4. The speaker box as described in claim 3, wherein the side wall further includes a support portion extending from the side portion to the accommodation space.

5. The speaker box as described in claim 3, wherein the vibrating diaphragm is fixed on the side portion or the hard sound-absorbing material.

6. The speaker box as described in claim 4, wherein the vibrating diaphragm is fixed on the support portion.

7. The speaker box as described in claim 2, wherein the magnetic circuit system is accommodated in the accommodation space with an outer edge thereof contacting directly with the hard sound-absorbing material.

8. The speaker box as described in claim 1, wherein the hard sound-absorbing material is porous material.

9. The speaker box as described in claim 8, wherein the opening rate of porous material is more than 90%.

10. The speaker box as described in claim 8, wherein the opening rate of porous material is more than 50%.

11. The speaker box as described in claim 8, wherein the opening rate of porous material is more than 40%.

12. The speaker box as described in claim 8, wherein the porous material is porous ceramics, porous glass or porous metal, pure material or composite material in general.

13. A method for manufacturing a speaker box as described in claim 1, comprising the steps of:

providing a mold;

disposing hard sound-absorbing material into the mold;

injecting injection liquid into the mold;

forming a housing by molding the injection liquid and the hard sound-absorbing material;

separating the mold and the housing;

assembling a speaker unit into the housing.
