Abstract

The invention relates to a 1D ultrasonic converter unit having at least three ultrasonic converters and a control unit for individually controlling each ultrasonic converter, wherein each ultrasonic converter has a housing, a piezoelectric body and a sound decoupling layer for decoupling sound waves in a gaseous medium, is embedded in a common carrier structure and emits and / or receives the same frequency between 20 kHz and 400 kHz, every two adjacent ultrasonic converters have a maximum distance (AI) of 10 cm, the 1D ultrasonic converter unit (10) has, per ultrasonic converter, one sound channel having an input opening (38) associated with exactly one sound decoupling layer (26) and an output opening (40), the output openings are arranged along a line, a maximum distance (A2) between twoadjacent output openings (40) is equal to the whole or half the wavelength of the sound frequency and is smaller than the distance (AI) of the input openings (38) and a quotient of a surface area of the output opening to a surface area of the input opening has a value between 0.3 and 1.2.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a one-dimensional ultrasound transducer unit having at least three discrete, individually steerable ultrasound transducers for sensing objects, contours or distances. Background technique [0002] Ultrasound or ultrasonic transducers are widely used in various measurement components. Depending on the application, ultrasonic waves are coupled out into liquid or gaseous media. [0003] An array of ultrasonic transducers for use in gaseous media is known from WO 2008 / 135 004 A1. The array has a layered structure with an electret layer between two electrode structures, wherein each electrode structure includes a plurality of independently addressable electrode elements, thereby creating an electret layer local thickness vibrations. [0004] A 1.5-dimensional ultrasound transducer array with improved near-field resolution is known from US 2013 / 0283918 A1. Phased ultrasonic transducer arrays and adaptive or compensatory control m...
