一种新的实验性人工喉被描述，它利用晶体管和微型部件为那些因手术切除或瘫痪而失去声带功能的人提供声音。喉部的运作方式是，通过支撑喉部的振动驱动器将替代声带的声音引入咽腔。介绍了在实现新设计时遵循的正常语音产生和人工语音产生的声学原理，以及晶体管电路及其操作特性的描述。
A new experimental artificial larynx, which makes use of transistors and miniaturized components to provide a voice for those who have lost the use of their vocal cords by surgical removal or paralysis, is described. The larynx operates by introducing a substitute for the sound of the vocal cords into the pharyngeal cavity by means of a vibrating driver held against the throat. The acoustic principles of normal and artificial speech production that were followed in arriving at the new design are presented, along with descriptions of the transistor circuit and its operating characteristics.
