Abstract

The invention relates to a longitudinal vibration converter achieving one-end inputs and multi-end outputs. The longitudinal vibration converter comprises an input rod, a transformation body and output rods which are sequentially connected. One transformation body end face opposed to the output rods has a planar or hemispherical structure. The outer surface of the transformation body is provided with at least three output rods. The output rods are uniformly distributed on the same circumference. The central shaft intersection point of the output rods is distributed on the central shaft of the input rod. The converter which can achieve longitudinal vibration inputs from one end and longitudinal vibration outputs from multiple directions further makes multiple output ends simultaneously act on a processed object. Large-area ultrasonic radiation applications on fluids are realized. The ultrasonic processing efficiency is improved. The production cost is lowered. The longitudinal vibration converter with a simple structural design is convenient to replace and dismount. Meanwhile, the number and the directions of the output rods can be flexibly selected according to real applications. The longitudinal vibration converter is suitably popularized and applied in a large scale.
