PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To sufficiently reduce a thickness of a display panel part in a speaker system integrated with a display panel. SOLUTION: A display panel 40 is inserted inside a bezel 10 and the bezel 10 is supported on the display panel 40. A laminated piezoelectric actuator 70L is attached to the back side of a left side plate part 13 of the bezel 10, and a laminated piezoelectric actuator 70R is attached the back side of a right side plate part 14. The displacement direction (vibration direction) of the stacked piezoelectric actuators 70L and 70R is made the plate surface direction of the bezel 10. Vibration of the laminated piezoelectric actuators 70L and 70R is transmitted to the bezel 10 as longitudinal vibration along the plate surface of the bezel 10 and sound wave is emitted in a front direction perpendicular to the plate surface of the bezel 10.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a loudspeaker system capable of reducing wear in an acoustic diaphragm, and maintaining stable tone quality and a volume, even if a sound is reproduced for a long time. SOLUTION: A cushion member 35 is formed in a cap shape using a material such as an ETFE (tetrafluoroethylene-ethylene copolymer) etc., of which the Durometer D is within a range of 30-75. The cushion member 35 is installed at the tip of a driving rod 31 of a magneto-striction actuator 30. The magneto-striction actuator 30 is driven, and the displacement of the driving rod 31 is delivered to the acoustic diaphragm 10. Then, the acoustic diaphragm 10 is vibrated, and the sound is reproduced. COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To effectively output sounds corresponding to images to be displayed on a panel. SOLUTION: A panel display device 102 is configured so that a plurality of magnetostrictive actuators 104 and a liquid crystal touch panel 105 are housed in a box-like casing 103. The magnetostrictive actuators 104 are fixed on the bottom surface of the casing 103, and the liquid crystal touch panel 105 is supported on the side surface of the casing 103 via an edge 106. The magnetostrictive actuators 104 are arranged in a state where a driving rod 104a for transmitting displacement output abuts on the back surface of the liquid crystal panel 105. An LCD of the liquid crystal touch panel 105 displays an image based on an image signal SV generated in an image signal generator 111. The magnetostrictive actuators 104 are driven based on a sound signal SA generated in a sound signal generator 113. In this way, the liquid crystal touch panel 105 is vibrated, and sound based on the sound signal SA is output from this liquid crystal touch panel 105. COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To efficiently radiate an audio signal from an entire diaphragm film. SOLUTION: A diaphragm 102 made of an electrostrictive elastic polymer is attached on an opening end 101a of a chamber 101. Electrodes 104F and 104R each capable of changing its shape depending on a change in shape of the diaphragm 102 are provided on the front and backsides of the diaphragm 102. The diaphragm 102 is formed in such a way that the electrostrictive elastic polymer previously molded and worked into a convex shape is further molded into a convex shape, so that a difference in atmospheric pressure may be generated between the front and backsides. In molding, the diaphragm 102 made of the electrostrictive elastic polymer previously molded and worked into a convex shape is attached on the opening end 101a of the chamber 101, a gas is put into the inside of the chamber 101, and the diaphragm 102 is further molded into a convex shape so that a difference in atmospheric pressure may be generated between the front and backsides. Thus, variations in film thickness of each portion of the diaphragm film can be reduced, and an audio signal can be efficiently radiated from the entire diaphragm. COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a large displacement output of a magnetostrictive actuator whose displacement output loss is made small. SOLUTION: The magnetostrictive actuator uses constitutively a magnetostrictive element 11 having a magnetostriction, a driving rod 13 connected with the magnetostrictive element 11 and capable of moving in the displacement direction of the magnetostrictive element 11 and made of a ferromagnetic, a solenoid coil 12 provided in the periphery of the magnetostrictive element 11 and for applying a magnetic field to the magnetostrictive element 11, and a storing portion 14 for storing therein the magnetostrictive element 11 and the solenoid coil 12. The storing portion 14 is so constituted by providing in the periphery of the magnetostrictive element 11 stored in it a permanent magnet 142 for applying a static bias magnetic field to the magnetostrictive element 11 and a cylindrical case 143 made of the ferromagnetic as to provide a clearance 15 between the driving rod 13 and the storing portion 14. A preload is applied to the magnetostrictive element 11 by the magnetic attracting force generated between the driving rod 13 and the storing portion 14. COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a drop discharge device which is easy of nozzle replacement and washing without exposing liquid to a high temperature and a high pressure and can be driven at a high frequency by a low voltage. SOLUTION: In the drop discharge device 1, by the change in a magnetic field generated by a fixed primary coil 210, and an induction current is produced in a cylindrical conductive member 230 which is a secondary coil. By the interaction between the induction current and a static magnetic field applied in advance by an annular magnetic circuit 220, the member 230 is moved in the liquid discharge direction. The member 230 is formed as a movement member 140 integrally with the front 122 of a liquid chamber 130. When the member 230 is moved, the front 122 with a discharge opening 123 formed is moved to change the volume of the liquid chamber 130 storing the liquid to be discharged. As a result, the liquid stored in the liquid chamber 130 is pressurized to be discharged from the opening 123. COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO&NCIPI
