Abstract: The invention relates to audio transducers, such as loudspeaker, microphones and the like, and includes improvements in or relating to hinge systems for rotational action audio transducers. The hinge systems of the invention being configured to operatively support a diaphragm in use, and comprising a hinge assembly having one or more hinge joints, wherein each hinge joint comprises a hinge element and a contact member. The contact member comprises a contact surface and the configuration is such that during operation each hinge joint is configured to allow the hinge element to move relative to the associated contact member, while maintaining a substantially consistent physical contact with the contact surface. The hinge assembly biases the hinge element towards the contact surface. Preferably the hinge assembly is configured to apply a biasing force to the hinge element of each joint toward the associated contact surface, compliantly. Various applications and implementations are described and envisaged for the audio transducer embodiments including, for example, personal audio devices such as headphones, earphones and the like.

Abstract: A hinge system having at least three hinge joints, consisting each of a hinge element and an associated contact member. The contact surface of the hinge element of each hinge joint moves relative to the contact surface of the associated contact member to enable rotatable oscillation of the hinge joint about a common axis of rotation during operation. The contact surface of each contact member is convexly curved and the hinge joints comprise convex surfaces facing in different directions to enhance operation of the hinge system. Multiple convex surfaces are preferably formed on a relatively rigid component to reduce manufacturing complexity and improve operation. The hinge system is particularly suited for audio transducer applications, but may also be used in other applications, such as in other electromechanical devices.

Abstract: The invention relates to audio transducer technology, including audio tuning systems to be utilised in personal audio devices, such as headphone, earphones, mobile phones and the like. The audio tuning system optimises the frequency response of the personal audio device by using Diffuse Field curve characteristics. The audio transducers of the personal audio device incorporate low resonance designs, including low resonance transducer and diaphragm suspensions to further optimise the sound quality of the device. The invention also relates to an audio transducer diaphragm construction that includes a three-dimensional lattice which may be utilised in any audio transducer application.
