[0002] In order to improve the application performance of iron gallium rod and permanent magnet in magnetostrictive transducer, the two are usually bonded. The drive vibration element composed of iron gallium rod and permanent magnet, as the core component of magnetostrictive transducer, is usually responsible for the emission and reception of sound waves, and good assembly precision is crucial to the performance of magnetostrictive transducer. Among them, iron gallium rod, as a magnetostrictive material, forms a closed magnetic circuit with permanent magnet, and by accurately arranging permanent magnet, optimizing magnetic circuit design and reducing magnetic field leakage, the magnetic energy utilization efficiency can be improved. The bonding quality of the drive vibration element composed of iron gallium rod and permanent magnet directly affects the acoustic performance of the transducer, including frequency response and signal strength. Therefore, ensuring the consistency of the bonding of iron gallium rod and permanent magnet and accurately controlling the bonding position and pressure of the drive vibration element can not only improve the performance and reliability of the magnetostrictive transducer, but also has important significance for promoting the development of underwater acoustic technology.

A mounting hole is arranged in the middle of the upper cover plate to fix the transducer through a bolt. The bolt is adjusted by a rotating torque wrench to control the pressing force. A jack mounting hole is arranged in the middle of the upper surface of the base to fix a lifting device, solving the problem of uneven stress of the transducer in the prior art and enabling accurate control of the prestress of the transducer.

The whole device is relatively bulky, especially with the inclusion of a jack and a hydraulic system, limiting its use in space-limited environments and increasing the difficulty of transportation and storage. Therefore, a new device needs to be designed. UTILITY MODEL CONTENTS
