Abstract (en)

[origin: JPH02223297A] PURPOSE: To diffuse sounds so that they become omnidirectional on a horizontal surface by providing two speaker units, two speaker cabinets and the rotary convex-type diffuser of a pear-shaped type, which is supported between diaphragms. CONSTITUTION: One speaker unit 4 is held on the end part of the extending part of the speaker cabinet 1 and the other unit 7 is held on the end part of the speaker cabinet 5 in a truncated pyramid or a truncated cone form constituting a reflecting face 12. The reflecting surface 12 diffuses the other part of the sounds diffused to become horizontal on a part of sound emitted by the opposite speaker unit 4 and on the same shaft so that they become horizontal by the unique deflection device 9 of a rotary concave form, which is arranged between the speaker units 4 and 7. Thus, sounds are diffused so that they become omnidirectional and sound quality can be improved.
