Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a miniaturized, lightweight wave transmitter and receiver with excellent cahracteristics by providing a miniaturized electroacoustic transducing part for wave reception made of a piezoelectric or electrostrictive material in contacting with the acoustic-wave radiation surface of an electroacoustic transducing part for wave transmission. CONSTITUTION:The Langevin type oscillator consisting of a front mass 1, electrostrictive material 2, and rear mass 3 has volume aout 10<6> as large as the element for wave reception for the purpose of wave transmission. During the wave transmission, a signal is transmitted from the front mass 1. The electrostrictive material 4 for wave reception is supported on its rear surface side by something like a hard complete steel body and receives sound pressure efficiently. The wave transmission and reception are performed by the different elements to hold high the both efficiencies. Further, their structures are put together in one body to reduce the entire size.

Conventionally, in this type of transducer, there are those that share the electroacoustic converter for transmitting and receiving waves, and those that use separate electroacoustic transducers for exclusive use. In the former case, if there is a matching circuit for matching the transmitting electrical signal (input), there is a drawback that the frequency characteristics of the receiving sensitivity, which is the receiving electrical signal (output), will be limited1. When a transformer that also serves as impedance conversion is connected to an electroacoustic transducer using an electrostrictive material etc. that has capacitive and actance components, and a conjugate is created by the inductive reactance component of this transformer, in the low frequency range, this induction The reactive reactance component decreases, and the electric signal (output) for delivery decreases. On the other hand, in the latter case where the transmitting and receiving electroacoustic transducers are separate, the radiation surfaces for transmitting or receiving the sound pressure of these electroacoustic transducers are configured and arranged separately. Therefore, the disadvantage is that the shape becomes larger and the weight increases.

The transducer of the present invention is characterized in that a small electroacoustic transducer for wave reception made of a piezoelectric material or an electrostrictive material is configured in close contact with a sound wave emitting surface of an electroacoustic transducer for wave transmission.

次に本発明の実施例について図面を参照して説明する。Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

The transmitting electroacoustic transducer is a Langevin type vibrator consisting of a front mass 1, an electrostrictive material 2, and a rear mass 3, and the delivery electroacoustic transducer is an electrostrictive material closely adhered to the front mass 1. It is 4. The electrical equipment 4 is approximately 1/100th of the weight and thickness t-100 of the front mass 1 so as not to inhibit the vibration of the Langevin type vibrator.

In general, the amount of energy transferred by the electroacoustic transducer for receiving waves is smaller than that for transmitting waves, so the electroacoustic transducer for receiving waves is sufficiently small and lightweight so as not to interfere with the imaging of the electroacoustic transducer for transmitting waves. Can be done. For example, when a normal transducer is turned on,
The output capacitance is several watts (W) or more when transmitting waves,
Therefore, the volume ratio of the two can easily be set to 1.10 or more when the output power during reception is several μW or less.

During this wave transmission, the Langevin type vibrator is vibrated and the wave is transmitted from the radiation surface of the front mass 1 (the electrostrictive material 4 side),
When receiving waves, the electrostrictive material 4 receives the sound pressure with full efficiency, as it is supported by a heavy and hard material close to a complete copper body on its back surface, just in the opposite relationship to when transmitting waves.

As a result, even if a conjugate circuit is included to efficiently supply electrical input to the transmitting electroacoustic converter, the receiving wave is related to the frequency characteristics of the ninth conjugate circuit that obtains the signal in another electroacoustic converter. It is possible to obtain wideband reception sensitivity characteristics without any interference.

In this case, a cylindrical electrostrictive material 5 is used as the transmitting electroacoustic converter, and the electrostrictive material 6t is closely attached to the radiation surface (outer cylindrical surface) at 90'' intervals as the delivery electroacoustic converter. This wave transmission is caused by the cylindrical electrostrictive material 5 acting as a vibrator and breathing vibration, and a sound wave is emitted from its radiation surface (outer cylinder surface). The influence of the strained material 6 can be ignored.

On the other hand, when receiving waves, it is possible to obtain the same wide-band receiving sensitivity characteristics as in the first embodiment, but in addition, in this embodiment, the electrostrictive material 6 is arranged at an angle of 90° to the cylindrical surface. The nine signals arranged at intervals have directional properties with respect to the direction of arrival of the sound wave of each received wave, and by processing this signal, it is possible to have different functions depending on the direction of arrival of the wave.

In the above embodiments, if a polymeric piezoelectric material is used as the material for the electroacoustic transducer in the delivery section, the physical properties of this material are close to those of a sound wave propagation medium such as water, and the material is lightweight and soft. , the influence of the transmitted wave on the electroacoustic converter is small,
Better transducer characteristics can be obtained.

As explained above, the present invention has an integral structure in which the electrostrictive material of the delivery electroacoustic transducer is closely attached to the sound wave radiation surface of the transmitting electroacoustic transducer, resulting in a smaller size and lighter weight. 9.The electrical input and output terminals of the transmitting and receiving electroacoustic converters can be provided separately, and even if a conjugate circuit is provided in the transmitting electroacoustic converter to improve large power transmission, the receiving The frequency characteristics of the sensitivity can be obtained in a wide band.Furthermore, if the radiation surface is three-dimensional like a cylindrical surface, the electro-acoustic converter of multiple receiving waves can be arranged on orthogonal coordinate axes. It also has the advantage of being able to function as a sound wave arrival direction.
