DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
Fig~ 1 is a vlew in perspective showing the piezoelectric polymer foil with the conductive areas thereon.
Fig. 2 is a plane view also showing the piezoelectric polymer foil and the relative placement of the conductive areas.
Fig. 3 is a perspective view showing the placement of a strain inducing member.
Fig. 4 i~ a circuit drawing showing how the invention may be interconnected electrically~
Referring to Fig. l; there is shown a side view of a piezoelectric polymer lamina 1, a first restraining means 2, and a second restraining means
3 arranged such that both of these means combine to ensure that the lamina 1 is fixed in length between the restraining points 4 and 5O The piezoelectric polymer may be of polyvinilidene fluoride. Cavities 6 and 7 between the polymer lamina 1 and the restrain-ing means 2 and 3 are preferably enclosed to protect the Eoil from external acoustic signals. Areas 8 and 8' are :Layers o conducting material (for example, aluminum), 9 and 9' as well as 10 and 10' are also similar areas of conducting material not connected with either 8 or 8' or each other. Each pair o conduct-ing areas constitutes an active element where these areas overlap.
, :
The application oE an electrical signal between any pair of conducting areas such as the conducting areas 8 and 8l; will cause a strain in the polymer foil due to the piezoelectric properties oE that foil. This strain is present at any part oE the foil between the restraining points 4 and 5;
hence, due to the piezoelectric properties of that foil~ an electrical signal will be produced at each oE
pairs of similar conducting areas 9 and 9' and 10 and 10'.
Fig. 2 shows in a plane v1ew the conducting areas in relation to the surface of the foil.
Referring to Fig. 2; 1 is the piezoelectric polymer foil, 4 and S the restraining points, 11 and 11' are optional holes to as~ist the mechanical and acoustic protection of the active part of the foil, 12 and 12' are the connecting means to the conducting areas 8 and 8', similarly 13 and 13' and 14 and 14' are the connecting means to the conducting areas to 10 and 10l and 9 and 9I respectively.
To ensure that either polarity oE super-imposed strain, resulting from either polarity of electrical signal, can be achieved within ~he foil it must be in a state oE strainu The absence of static pressure would only permit the existance of superimposed tensile strain.
The stakic pressure can be provided by deforming the foil after it has been clamped at the restraining points either by a rigld form 15 as shown in Fig. 3 or by a resilient form; the latter type will result in an acoustic coupling between the active elements in addition to the mechanical coupling be-tween the active elements on the foil and exagerate the need to protect the Eoil Erom external acoustic signals if such protection is necessary for a specific application of the isolator. A rigid form should preferably be as shown in Fig. 3 where 15 is a pro-jection of restraining means 3 so as to stretch the foil 1 to a length 4~15~5 which is longer than the length 4-5. All active element.s are provided on the part of the foil lying between 4 and 15.
The strain in the oil between the restrain-s ing points 4 and 5 is experienced equally by the active elements formed by the areas 9/9' and lO/10';
the electrical signal produced at each of these active elements shoul_ therefore be equalO The source im-pedance of the active elemenl:s 9/9' and 10/lO' depends on the area of these elements and the actual electrical signals ~voltages) are thus dependent on tlle impedance of the electrical circuits connected to those elements;
given that the actual areas are inversely proportional to the actual impedances of the connected circuits then the actual voltages will be equal~
It is not necessary for the areas o any of the active elements to be equal; hence these areas -and their shapes - in a particular implementation can be chosen to optimize the physical separation of the conducting areas so as to achieve the electrical isolation required for a particular application.
Fig. 4 shows an electrical application of the strain coupled mechanical system described in Figs. 1 thru 3. The piezoelectric film is shown as a dashed line betwPen the active elements 8 and 8', 9 and 9' and 10 and 10'. These elements are each shown with the primed element connected to a co~mon ground potential, separate grounds being shown for each side of the isolator. The input or driving elements 8 and 8 t are connected to the output of the input amplifier 16. The input signal is applied at the terminals labeled Vin through a network of resistors Rl and R2 and the input ground to the non~inverting input terminal. The sensed piezoelectric generated signal at the active elements lO and 10' is connected back to the inverting input of the amplifier. The signal from the driving elements 8 and 8' via the network composed of resistors R3 and R4 in the series - ~ -path and capacitor Cl connected to ground from the resistors junction point --- is also connected to the inverting input of the amplifier 16 so as to ensure the correct bias to that ampliier; the capacito~
Cl eEfectively bypasses the variations in output voltage to ground so that the feedback to the amplifier is only of the voltage produced at elements lO/lO'.
The isolated output is taken from the active elements 9 and 9' to an output amplifier 17. This amplifier may be of any convenient typle and is here shown with resistors R5, R6 and R7 to stabilize and control its operation. The resultant output signal is then taken at the terminals labeled V out~
The strain S is related to the voltage applied to the element 8/8', Vxt by some constant Kl; the voltage produced at the element g/g', Vy~
is related to t.he strain S by some other constant K2 and similarly Vz is related to the strain S by a constant K3 (where Kl, K~ and K3 are functions of the physical construction and also of the piezoelectric properties of the foil).
Hence l x Vy = K2.S

25 and to satisEy the operating conditions of the amplifier Vin. R2 = Vy (Rl~R2 ) and of amplif ier 17 Vout. ~7 - Vz (R -~R ) If Area of active element 9/9' .
