Abstract
An electromechanical transducer 180, motor structure 200 and voice coil winding support structure or bobbin 210 are configured to protect and transport heat away from a voice coil 220 which is would solely within the interior of bobbin 210 and configured for reciprocating movement in close proximity to an extended cooling pole piece 204. A compact, economical and efficient adaptation of a pancake style motor includes generous volume for a powerful magnet 208, while providing an extended, linear range of excursion and continuous cooling for the generously overhung voice coil 220.
