A flat acoustic conversion device includes two magnets disposed so that
their magnetic poles face upward arid are adjacent to or in contact with
one another, and the magnetic pole faces of different polarities arc
disposed alternately; a vibrating member disposed on the top surface of
the yoke; coil pairs wound in helical form and disposed at front and
reverse surfaces of the vibrating membrane; such that magnetic flux
traveling in a direction substantially parallel to a surface of the
vibrating membrane becomes a maximum, and interlinks with the coil pairs.
When current is supplied to the coils, a direction of force which the
current receives from a magnetic field is substantially orthogonal to the
surface of the vibrating membrane, and force in a direction along the
surface of the vibrating membrane becomes extremely low. Thus, noise
components can be reduced such that sound quality can be improved.
