The power input of the ultrasonic transducer is connected to the electrode sheet; the power input of the electric motor is connected to the solder sheet. Then, electrical signals of different frequencies are input to the ultrasonic transducer and the electric motor respectively. Under the action of the electrical signal, the ultrasonic transducer generates an ultrasonic signal of the corresponding frequency. The ultrasonic signal propagates forward along the horn and causes the horn to produce a vibration effect. After the electric motor is input with the electrical signal, the silicon steel sheet generates magnetism due to the electromagnetic effect, and rotates under the action of the fixed magnet sheet. The rotation phenomenon of the electric motor is transmitted to the ultrasonic transducer through the fixed screw and drives the rotation of the ultrasonic transducer. When the electric motor rotates to a certain angle, the phase of the input electrical signal changes, and the silicon steel sheet will produce reverse rotation under the magnetic interaction, and drive the rotation of the ultrasonic transducer again. By continuously inputting the electrical signal with phase change to the electric motor, the electric motor and the ultrasonic transducer can be continuously rotated left and right, so as to achieve the output of the vibration effect of "moving forward and backward" while meeting the requirements of omnidirectional working direction of the ultrasonic wave.
