- the ultrasonic sonotrodes 130 are moved from below through the through holes 132 so that they come into contact with the material sheet to be recorded 1 12 and this last with the according to the document type specific order Welded material sheet welded.
- FIG. 5A shows a material sheet booklet 500, which comprises a plurality of material sheets 12, which are each firmly welded by ultrasonic welding in the region of the joining zone 502 to the material sheet following the document type-specific sequence.
- Firmly welded means that the material sheets can not be separated from each other without destroying them.
- the corresponding material booklet 500 results from the information provided by the directions 100, 100 'as shown in FIGS. 1 and 3.
- FIG. 5B shows a view of the material sheet 500 perpendicular to the top.
- a joining zone 502 of the ultrasonic welding which is shown dotted.
- the joining zones 502 may, for example, be four point-shaped or circular or rectangular regions, for the production of which sonotrodes with circular or rectangular shapes are used
- Embodiments may vary in shape and diameter in the welded regions 502, depending on the shape of the ultrasound sonotrodes 130 used.
- FIGS 6A and 6B show a schematic detail view of a supply cassette 1 16 with sheets of material 1 12, which are arranged in the form of a stack 140.
- a material sheet carrier 108 is arranged with a flat support surface 1 10, which have a rectangular format in the example shown.

- the carrier element 606 has a groove 610, in which the web 608 is arranged.
- FIG. 6B shows the state when the carrier element 606 has been moved along the rails 608 over the depositing surface 110.
- the recorded material sheet 1 12 is stored on the shelf surface 1 10 by switching off the negative pressure to the suction ports 602 by gravity.
- the receiving element 604 is also moved downwards.
- Figure 7 shows a schematic view of the dispensing device 1 14 from the front.

- FIG. 9 shows a schematic view of an ultrasonic tool 130 for welding material sheets.
- the ultrasonic tool 130 comprises a generator 902, a sound transducer 904, a transformation piece 906 and a pen tool. mige sonotrode 908.
- the generator generates a high-frequency electrical alternating voltage, which is converted by the transducer 904 in a mechanical vibration of the same frequency.
- the ultrasound vibration is transmitted to the sonotrode 908 tuned to the same frequency via the sound transducer 904 and these resonate in resonance. If necessary, the vibration amplitude can be enhanced by incorporating a transformation piece 906 between transducer 904 and sonotrode 908.
