Abstract
There is a terminal block with leaf spring metal terminals that extend downward from a housing on the side opposite the open end of the housing in which a diaphragm is fitted and fixed, and an elastic material functions as a pad that is sandwiched between the surface of a circuit board and the open side of the housing on the side from which the metal terminals project, with the metal terminals pressed against the conduction pattern of the circuit board to make an electrical connection. Alternatively, the contact point that is connected electrically to the conductive pattern of the circuit board is on the side on which the diaphragm is mounted and the metal terminals have flat plates for electrical connection of voice coil lead wires on the side opposite that where the diaphragm is mounted, so that the voice coil lead wires extend outside the housing and are connected electrically to the flat plates of the metal terminals on the side opposite the side where the diaphragm is mounted, and the side where the diaphragm is mounted faces the surface of the circuit board and away from the inside of the outer casing of the equipment.
