Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 14
Claim 1
Independent Claim 78 words
An acoustical diaphragm comprising a base metal applied with anodic oxide films having micropores, in which a compound chosen from the group consisting of lead compounds, inorganic metal compounds and phosphor compounds is impregnated in at least a portion of the micropores of the anodic oxide film, to obtain an increase in the sonic velocity of the diaphragm to more than 5500 m/sec and a decrease in the sharpness of resonance of the diaphragm to less than 80.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 78 words
An acoustical diaphragm comprising a base metal applied with anodic oxide films having micropores, in which a compound chosen from the group consisting of lead compounds, inorganic metal compounds and phosphor compounds is impregnated in at least a portion of the micropores of the anodic oxide film, to obtain an increase in the sonic velocity of the diaphragm to more than 5500 m/sec and a decrease in the sharpness of resonance of the diaphragm to less than 80.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 65 words
A acoustical diaphragm comprising a base metal applied with anodic oxide films having micropores, in which a lead compound is impregnated in at least a portion of the micropores of the anodic oxide film, to obtain an increase in the sonic velocity of the diaphragm to more than 5500 m/sec and a decrease in the sharpness of resonance of the diaphragm to less than 80.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 65 words
A acoustical diaphragm comprising a base metal applied with anodic oxide films having micropores, in which a lead compound is impregnated in at least a portion of the micropores of the anodic oxide film, to obtain an increase in the sonic velocity of the diaphragm to more than 5500 m/sec and a decrease in the sharpness of resonance of the diaphragm to less than 80.
