A motor for an electrodynamic loudspeaker and an electrodynamic loudspeaker including the motor. The motor includes a magnetic circuit assembly arranged about a motor axis. The motor includes: a magnetically permeable top plate, a magnetically permeable bottom plate, a magnetically permeable member disposed between, and magnetically coupled to, the magnetically permeable top and bottom plates, a center pole piece and an air gap for receipt of a voice coil. The motor also includes an outwardly projecting magnetically permeable member, or hat, arranged above a top of the air gap. The center pole piece includes a permanent magnet, such as a Neodymium magnet or a Ferrite magnet, extending axially from at least the bottom of the air gap to a magnetically permeable bottom member or to the magnetically permeable bottom plate.

Loudspeaker motor with inner permanent magnet

The present invention relates to a motor for an electrodynamic loudspeaker, comprising a magnetic circuit assembly arranged about a motor axis. The magnetic circuit assembly comprises: an outer magnet, a magnetically permeable top plate, a magnetically permeable bottom plate, a center pole piece and an air gap for receipt of a voice coil. The air gap is formed by an inner axially extending wall of the magnetically permeable top plate facing an axially extending peripheral wall section of the center pole piece to define a width, a bottom, a top and height of the air gap. The magnetic circuit assembly additionally comprises outwardly projecting magnetically permeable member arranged above the top of the air gap. The center pole piece comprises a magnetic member extending axially from at least the bottom of the air gap to a magnetically permeable bottom member or to the magnetically permeable bottom plate. The magnetic member exhibits a relative AC magnetic permeability smaller than 10, such as smaller than 5 or smaller than 2, such as about 1 which corresponds to the relative AC magnetic permeability of free air.
