Abstract

La présente invention concerne une cartouche à ultrasons et une tête de traitement par ultrasons l'utilisant. Dans la cartouche à ultrasons, un élément d'arbre de pivot d'une partie du transducteur ultrasonore est couplé à une partie de surface supérieure du boîtier de cartouche par la première partie de joint à rotule, de façon à être mobile de manière pivotante tandis que la partie de surface supérieure du boîtier de cartouche présente une rigidité suffisante pour supporter le mouvement de pivotement. Ainsi, la cartouche à ultrasons présente une durabilité accrue. En outre, structuré pour faire circuler le liquide à l'intérieur du boîtier de cartouche, pour cela la cartouche à ultrasons peut effectuer le traitement par ultrasons de manière stable pendant une longue période de temps et augmenter significativement l'efficacité de ce traitement.
