Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a small electrodynamic electroacoustic transducer which allows expansion of a reproduction band and allows a maximum sound pressure in the reproduction band to be set high and can be made thin.  <P>SOLUTION: An edge 12B of a diaphragm 12 is composed of a three-layer structure of polymer material layers 12U, 12L, and 12M. In this case, the upper layer 12U and the lower layer 12L are made of a polyether imide and are formed to have a substantially same thickness, so that the edge 12B becomes superior in terms of durability and resistance to the environment. Thereby, in order that the edge 12B has a lower modulus of elasticity, the edge 12B can become thin and the lowest resonant frequency is lowered. Further, the intermediate layer 12M is made of an acrylic adhesive and is made thicker than the upper layer 12U and the lower layer 12L, so that the loss tangent of the edge 12B is increased to prevent the occurrence of overamplitude at the lowest resonant frequency. Thereby, the maximum sound pressure in the reproduction band can be set high, and the transducer can be made thinner.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT
