Abstract

A sound speaker for a vehicle is provided. The sound speaker includes a flat surface with a rod extending perpendicular from the surface, a cylindrical electro-dynamic exciter with an axial longitudinal through hole arranged for receiving the rod and a circular clamp for securing the electro-dynamic exciter on the first flat surface in a closed position. The electro-dynamic exciter includes a longitudinal rib inside the through hole and the rod includes a longitudinal recess for receiving the rib. The rod further includes a lateral recess for receiving the clamp. A least a part of the lateral recess forms a conical frustum and the clamp in the closed position forms a corresponding conical frustum. This part of the lateral recess pushes the clamp in the closed position against the electro-dynamic exciter towards the flat surface.
