Definitions
- the invention is based on an ultrasonic transducer with a cup-like housing with an annular wall and a bottom surface as a membrane, a piezo element being attached to the inside of the bottom surface and being connected to connecting lines.
- An ultrasonic transducer is known from EP 0 075 302 B1, which has a cup-shaped housing. Such ultrasonic transducers are used, for example, as sensors for distance measuring devices.
- the object of the present invention is to provide an ultrasonic transducer with stable, assembly-compatible contacting.
- a first advantageous embodiment of the ultrasonic transducer according to the invention consists in that the decoupling ring essentially fills the housing and is provided with bores for holding the connecting lines.
- the decoupling ring has a central opening, on the edge of which grooves are arranged for holding the connecting lines. It is advantageous if a part of the interior of the housing, including the central opening, which is not occupied by the decoupling ring is filled with a damping material.
- the connecting lines are flexible.
- the connecting lines are formed for example by strands, a simple assembly of the ultrasonic transducer according to the invention is nevertheless possible on a printed circuit board, the connecting lines fitting through the holder into the bores arranged in the respective grid dimension.
- the connecting lines held in the decoupling ring are rigid and are connected to the piezo element via flexible line pieces. Simple assembly is also ensured here.
- the decoupling ring has an opening in addition to the bores for holding the connecting lines, and that the opening and a part of the interior of the housing which is not occupied by the decoupling ring are filled with a damping material. In this configuration, the rigid
- Decoupling ring to keep the position of the connecting lines or their distance exactly, can be provided according to a further development that the connecting lines are held on the surface of the decoupling ring by a preferably annular web.
- Fig. 2 shows a second embodiment in four views
- Fig. 3 shows a third embodiment in three views.
- the figures show the exemplary embodiments in each case in a view from the radiation direction or reception direction (a) and a plan view from the connection side (b) and in each case as a longitudinal section (c) or (d).
- the illustrated exemplary embodiments each contain a sensor transducer pot 1, for example made of aluminum, to the bottom of which the piezo element 2 is fastened, for example glued, on the inside.
- a decoupling ring 4, 6, 9 made of elastic material, preferably made of silicone, is provided which covers the edge of the Converter pot 1 includes.
- a corresponding contour of the transducer pot 1 and on the outside of the decoupling ring 4, 6, 9 is used for secure attachment by simply pressing it into a corresponding opening in the body part, not shown.
- connecting strands 3 are contacted with the piezo element 2.
- the decoupling ring 4 comprises a central opening, at the edge of which grooves are provided for holding the connecting strands 3.
- the remaining cavities are filled with a damping material 5, for example with a silicone foam.
- the decoupling ring 6 is designed such that it occupies the entire interior of the sensor pot 1.
- a hole running through the entire decoupling ring 6 is provided.
- two rigid connecting lines 4 are provided, each of which is connected to the piezo element 2 via a flexible line 7.
- the rigid connecting lines 8 are in turn held in the decoupling ring 9, with an additional web 10 made of low-elasticity additionally fixing the connecting lines 8. 3, the cavities are filled with a damping material 11.
