Abstract
The invention relates to an ultrasonic booster (1) for a sonotrode (30) for processing workpieces (W) with ultrasonic vibrations, having a booster body (10). Longitudinal vibrations (SL) are introduced into the booster body (10) on a sound introduction side (11) having a first end side (12). A conversion structure (15), by means of which transverse vibrations (ST) having a vibration component in a plane (E) perpendicular to the longitudinal axis (L) are generated from the longitudinal vibrations (SL), is located between the sound introduction side (11) and a coupling side (13) opposite the sound introduction side.
Claims20
An ultrasonic booster for a sonotrode for processing workpieces with ultrasonic vibrations,
- having a booster body with a longitudinal axis, the booster body having a sound input side with a first end face and a coupling side with a second end face for connection to the sonotrode,
- wherein longitudinal vibrations can be introduced into the booster body on the sound input side in a direction parallel to the longitudinal axis,
- wherein a conversion structure is arranged between the sound input side and the coupling side, by means of which torsional vibrations with a vibration component in a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis can be generated from the longitudinal vibrations,
- wherein a damping structure is provided between the conversion structure and the coupling side, which reduces the longitudinal vibrations on the coupling side, the damping structure being formed by a material weakening in the booster body.
