Abstract
An electromagnetic shockwave transducer includes a double-faced coil of wire wound around an insulator. The coil has a first coil face on one side of the insulator and a second coil face on an opposite side of the insulator. Coil ends of the coil are electrically coupled to a current source, which produces a current pulse in the coil so as to produce a force between the coil faces.
Claims14
An electromagnetic shockwave transducer comprising:
- a double-faced coil of wire wound around an insulator, said coil having a first coil face on one side of said insulator and a second coil face on an opposite side of said insulator, wherein coil ends of said coil are electrically coupled to a current source, which produces a current pulse in said coil so as to produce a force between said coil faces.
A shockwave transducer comprising:
- two similarly shaped and parallel flat coils separated by a restoring insulator, said coils being in electrical communication with a current source, wherein said current source has an operative configuration to deliver current pulses of same polarity to said coils so as to produce pulses of pulling forces that pull said coils towards each other, said pulling forces producing rarefaction shockwaves.
A method of producing rarefaction shockwaves comprising:
- providing an electromagnetic rarefaction shockwave transducer that comprises two similarly shaped and parallel flat coils separated by a restoring insulator, said coils being in electrical communication with a current source, and using said current source to deliver current pulses of same polarity to said coils so as to produce pulses of pulling forces that pull said coils towards each other, said pulling forces producing rarefaction shockwaves.
