Abstract
A transducer vibrated by a vibrator and used in a bonding apparatus, the transducer including holding portions provided so as to protrude at at least two locations that correspond to the nodes of vibration of a transducer main body, and connecting portions each connecting the tip ends of two protruding holding portions to each other. The transducer main body, holding portions and connecting portions are integrally formed from a single material member.
Claims13
A transducer caused to vibrate by an operation of a vibrator, said transducer comprising:
- holding portions which are provided in at least two locations that include nodes of vibration in a transducer main body, and
- connecting portions that connect said holding portions to each other at areas that differ from areas where said holding portions protrude from said transducer main body, and wherein
- said transducer main body, said holding portions and said connecting portions are integrally formed from a single material member.
A transducer in a form of a bonding horn used in a bonding apparatus and vibrated by a vibrator, said transducer comprising:
- a transducer main body including a front-side portion provided at an end thereof with a capillary mounting hole and a rear-side portion provided therein with a vibrator;
- at least two holding portions formed on either side of an axis center of said transducer main body, said at least two holding portions protruding at right angles with respect to a direction of length of said transducer main body and provided at locations that correspond to nodes of vibration of said transducer main body, and
- a connecting portion that connect tip ends of said at least two holding portions to each other;
- wherein
- said transducer has an empty space on either side of said transducer main body, said empty space being defined by said transducer main body, said at least two holding portions and said connecting portion.
