Abstract
Provided is a piezoelectric type loudspeaker capable of reproducing a high sound pressure in a limited space, without increasing a voltage applied to a piezoelectric element in a bass range. A plurality of piezoelectric diaphragms are disposed in parallel, and coupled to one another in a thickness direction of the diaphragms via a coupling member, and a polarity of the piezoelectric element and the applied voltage are defined so as to cause deformations in opposite directions from each other. One diaphragm includes an edge on a periphery, and operates as a sound wave radiation surface. At least one diaphragm is fixed to a housing side via a fixing member. Series resistance is connected to the piezoelectric element on the piezoelectric diaphragm fixed to the housing side.
