The free end of the converter vibrates in an elliptical or circular locus. Complex vibration systems with elliptical to circular or rectangular to square loci can be applied eVectively for various high-power applications, including ultrasonic welding of metal or plastics, ultrasonic wire bonding of IC, LSI and electronic devices, and also ultrasonic motors. The converter with multiple slitted parts was improved in the vibration stress level and the quality factor compared with the converter with single slitted part. 2000 Elsevier Science B.V.

Vibration characteristics of a complex vibration converters Fig. 2 shows the relationship between driving fre- quency and longitudinal and torsional vibration velocity of a complex vibration system with the vibration con- verter (a). The driving voltage is kept constant at 20 Vrms. Longitudinal and torsional vibration velocities have maximum values at diVerent frequencies at around 26.3 and 26.4 kHz. The elliptical locus is obtained at the free edge of the converter. Torsional and radial vibration velocity distributions at 26.8 kHz along a complex vibration converter with Fig. 1.

The radial vibration velocity distribution along a slitted parts that were installed avoiding a longitudinal complex vibration converter with double slitted parts nodal part, are shown in Fig. 1. The cylindrical longitu- dinaltorsional vibration converters, made of aluminum alloy (JISA7075B), had two slitted parts on both sides of a longitudinal vibration nodal part at its circumfer- ence. The converters were driven by a longitudinal vibration source. Various converters with (a) diVerent and (b) the same angle diagonally slitted parts were made in the trials. The vibration converter part had 18 diagonal slits of 45 or 135, 10 mm width and 0.5 mm width were cut along its circumference using an electrosparking machine. The slit depth was altered from 1.0 to 3.0 mm. The free edge part of the converter vibrated longitudinally and torsionally and vibrated in an elliptical locus. Fig. 2.

Vibration characteristics of the converters with two slitted parts The free admittance loops of the total vibration systems with the converters Fig. 1(a) and (b) were measured. The quality factor and motional admittance, |Y mo |, of the vibration system with a converter with diVerent angle slitted parts (a) and the same angle slitted parts (b) were about 600 and 30 mS under welding conditions of two 1.0 mm thick polypropyrene sheets with a static pressure of 890 kPa. The admittance loops of the vibration system with the converters show single circular shapes because the resonance frequencies of the longitudinal and torsional vibrations are close. The quality factors and motional admittances of the both Fig. 3. Relationship between driving frequency, and longitudinal and systems are large.
