Patent ID: 8085970

Claim:
A speaker damper used for a speaker, the speaker comprising: a frame: a magnetic circuit supported by the frame; a voice coil unit movably inserted into a magnetic gap provided in the magnetic circuit; and a diaphragm coupled to the frame at its outer peripheral end and coupled to the voice coil unit at its inner peripheral end; and the speaker damper, wherein the speaker damper has a first supporting portion having a first elastic modulus at its inner peripheral side, and has a second supporting portion coupled to an outer peripheral side of the first supporting portion, the second supporting portion having a second elastic modulus that is larger than the first elastic modulus, and the first supporting portion and the second supporting portion are formed separately, the inner peripheral end of the first supporting portion is coupled to the voice coil unit, and the outer peripheral end of the second supporting portion is coupled to the frame, and a part where the first supporting portion is coupled to the voice coil unit is nearer to the magnetic circuit than a part where the diaphragm is coupled to the voice coil unit.
