Abstract
Disclosed is a communication buzzer. The communication buzzer comprises a nonconductive magnetic piece having substantially a cup-shaped configuration so that it possesses a bottom wall portion and a main wall portion which extends upward from the bottom wall portion; a magnetizable shaft securely fixed to the bottom wall portion of the nonconductive magnetic piece and projecting upward and concentrically with the main wall portion of the nonconductive magnetic piece; an electromagnetic actuator fitted around the magnetizable shaft for magnetizing the magnetizable shaft when current is supplied thereto and for demagnetizing the magnetizable shaft when a current supply is shut off; a conductive piece for providing a current path connected to the electromagnetic actuator, the conductive piece having a first end exposed to the outside, a second end brought into contact with the electromagnetic actuator and a middle portion extending through the bottom wall portion of the nonconductive magnetic piece; and a vibrating plate separated by a predetermined distance from an upper end of the magnetizable shaft, the vibrating plate vibrating as the magnetizable shaft is repeatedly magnetized and demagnetized, thereby generating a sound wave.
