Abstract
Abstract
The iron terminals are mostly used in the small ultrasonic transducers which are connected to the circuit board by the direct or indirect welding method. Although the method is considered to be firm and reliable, the ultrasonic transducer or the whole system is easy to be damaged when the ultrasonic transducer is replaced or maintained. Moreover, the terminals of the ultrasonic transducer are easy to be oxidized. The miniaturized ultrasonic transducer with the electroplated copper terminals is innovatively designed to enhance the oxidation resistance of its terminals. Then the ultrasonic transducers are installed on the circuit board by the copper claw spring instead of welding. In addition, the waterproof miniaturized ultrasonic transducer is replaced by the fully covered waterproof sound permeable membrane and the non waterproof miniaturized ultrasonic transducer. The experimental results demonstrate that the quality of the signal transmission of the ultrasonic transducer is not affected, and the convenience of replacement and maintenance of the ultrasonic transducer is improved. With this design process, the overall waterproof performance of the system is also significantly enhanced while the system cost is reduced, market future is wide prospect.
