Abstract (en)

[origin: EP3086570A1] The invention pertains to a speaker comprising a magnet, a voice coil, and a diaphragm, wherein the diaphragm comprises tapes of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene, the tapes having an uniplanar orientation parameter of at least 3. The invention also pertains to the use of tapes of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene, the tapes having an uniplanar orientation parameter of at least 3, in a diaphragm of a speaker comprising a magnet, a voice coil, and a diaphragm. The invention further pertains to a method of manufacturing a diaphragm suitable for use in a speaker wherein layers comprising tapes of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene, the tapes having an uniplanar orientation parameter of at least 3, are shaped by placing the layers in a mold suitable to obtain a diaphragm shape, and heating the material under such conditions that a molded shape is obtained, but at a temperature which is below the melting temperature of the UHMWPE tapes.
