以下に従来のスピーカフレームについて説明する。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of Industrial Application The present invention relates to a material for speaker frames used in audio output equipment and the like. 2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, sound output devices such as televisions, stereos, radio-cassette players, etc. have been designed to have even better output sound pressure than before for the acoustic characteristics of speakers and speaker systems. Distortion rate and flatness are desired, and low magnetic leakage is also required for sbeekers and sbeeker systems used for video on TVs, etc., which is an increasingly important factor that affects acoustic and magnetic properties. It is being looked at. A conventional speaker frame will be explained below.

すという問題点を有していた。Traditionally, materials such as steel plates and die-cast aluminum have been used for speaker frames. However, when a speaker is constructed using these materials, magnetic leakage becomes large if the iron plate is used, and the appearance also lacks a luxurious appearance. In addition, although aluminum die casting has excellent magnetic leakage and appearance, it has the drawback of being extremely expensive. It is becoming increasingly common to use this method to form the shape of a speaker frame. Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, speaker frames using these materials have a low bending modulus of elasticity, which results in low rigidity and low specific gravity of the molded material, making it difficult to drive the speaker with a constant power. When this happens, it resonates with the speaker diaphragm, deforms the frame, causes peaks and valleys in the speaker's sound pressure-frequency characteristics, increases distortion rate, and deteriorates sound quality.
このため、従来これらの樹脂材と各種強化材の複合化が

の強化材では成形時に樹脂の流動方向に配向するため、
成形物の強度に方向性を生じて樹脂材料への補強効果力
C限定されたり、また粒状の補強材では剛性は上がって
も脆性を生じるといった問題点も有していた。For this reason, conventional composites of these resin materials and various reinforcing materials have been carried out, but for example, fibrous reinforcing materials such as glass fiber are oriented in the flow direction of the resin during molding.
There are also problems in that the strength of the molded product is directional, which limits the reinforcing effect C on the resin material, and that granular reinforcing materials are brittle even though they have increased rigidity.
さらにこれらの補強材は比重もそれほど高《なく、複合
化によって樹脂材料の比重を大きく上昇させることはで
きなかった。Furthermore, the specific gravity of these reinforcing materials is not so high, and it has not been possible to significantly increase the specific gravity of the resin material by compositing.

It has a structure in which whiskers with a high modulus of elasticity are mixed.

脆性が向上することがない。Due to this structure, the speaker frame material according to the present invention has a very high elastic modulus, and when compared with conventional resin moldings, the material for speaker frames according to the present invention has a very high elasticity when the wall thickness is constant. Since the rigidity is increased and the specific gravity is also large, a speaker frame molded using this material will not deform or resonate during the operation of the speaker, so the sound pressure-frequency characteristics of the speaker will be flat. This has the effect of reducing distortion. In addition, we use a material that uses thermofusible or thermosetting synthetic resin as a base material, and mixes whiskers with high elastic modulus made of zinc oxide, in which crystals grow in four different directions from the center mentioned above. As a result, the thermoplastic or thermosetting resin and the whisker are well intertwined, and compared to conventional needle-shaped whiskers or fibrous reinforcing materials, the elastic modulus can be made thicker, and at the same time, it has strong toughness. can be ensured,
No improvement in brittleness.

形により一定の形状に成形して試料を作成した。In addition, this speaker frame material uses a mixture of thermoplastic or thermosetting synthetic resin and whiskers with a high elastic modulus made of zinc oxide, in which crystals grow in four different directions from the center. When molded using a method such as injection molding, the reinforcing material is oriented by the flow of resin during molding, and the strength of the material becomes directional, like conventional needle whiskers or fibrous reinforcing materials. There is no phenomenon in which the strength becomes extremely weak, and the strength is equally excellent in all directions. In addition, this material for speaker frames has good compatibility between the synthetic resin and the whiskers, so it exhibits better moldability than conventional molding materials containing various reinforcing materials, and is capable of molding complex shapes. It is excellent in mass production. EXAMPLE Hereinafter, an example of the present invention will be explained in detail with reference to the drawings. (Example 1) Whiskers are zinc oxide whiskers, molecular formula...

The crystal size is also the same. Epoxy resin was used as the matrix resin, and it was cured with a polyamine-based curing agent. Bisphenol type Epicote 828 was used as the epoxy resin, and triethylenetetramine was used as the curing agent. The content of Wiss was 0 to 7 Qwt%, and after thorough kneading with Ebikoat 828, 1% triethylenetetramine was added to 100 parts by weight of Epicoat 828.
After adding 2 parts by weight and thoroughly kneading, a sample was prepared by molding into a predetermined shape using a casting method. FIG. 2 shows the relationship between the whisker content and the flexural modulus of the prepared sample.

Bending elastic modulus is an important physical property value that indicates the evaluation of a speaker frame material.If this value is small, abnormal noise may occur in the frame, peaks and valleys may occur in the sound pressure-frequency characteristics of the speaker, and the distortion rate may increase. do. Table 1 shows the values of the physical properties of the materials in Examples 1 and 2 as a comparison with conventional speaker frame materials and the effects of whiskers and spines.
