Abstract:
A transducer system isolates vibrations produced by a transducer. The transducer system comprises the transducer and a vibration isolation system. The transducer can produce vibrations and is configured to be coupled to a device. The transducer includes a first sub-assembly including a coil assembly and a second sub-assembly including one or more magnets. The vibration isolation system is configured to isolate vibrations produced by the transducer from the device. The vibration isolation system includes a plurality of support brackets, and a suspension component including a plurality of flexures. The plurality of flexures includes a first set of flexures configured to suspend the first sub-assembly from the support brackets, a second set of flexures configured to suspend the second sub-assembly from the first sub-assembly, and a third set of flexures configured to suspend the second sub-assembly from the support brackets.
