Abstract: A fluidic component for generating an ultrasound signal is provided. The fluidic component includes a flow chamber, which can be flowed through by a fluid flow, which enters the flow chamber through an inlet opening of the flow chamber and exits from the flow chamber through an outlet opening of the flow chamber. The fluidic component has at least one device for forming an oscillation of the fluid flow at the outlet opening, the oscillation taking place in an oscillation plane, a separation device, which is designed to separate off a part from the oscillating fluid flow. The separation device includes an inlet opening, through which the oscillating fluid flow enters the separation device, and at least one first outlet opening and at least one second outlet opening, through each of which a part of the oscillating fluid flow exits.

Abstract: A fluidic component having a flow chamber allowing a fluid flow to flow through, said fluid flow entering the flow chamber through an inlet opening of the flow chamber and emerging from the flow chamber through an outlet opening of the flow chamber, and which flow chamber has at least one means for changing the direction of the fluid flow at the outlet opening in a controlled manner. The flow chamber has a main flow channel, which interconnects the inlet opening and the outlet opening, and at least one auxiliary flow channel as a means for changing the direction of the fluid flow at the outlet opening in a controlled manner. The inlet opening has a larger cross-sectional area than the outlet opening or the inlet opening and the outlet opening have cross-sectional areas that are equal in size.

Abstract: A fluidic component includes a flow chamber with at least one inlet opening and at least one outlet opening. The flow chamber can be traversed by a main flow of a fluid from the at least one inlet opening to the at least one outlet opening and includes at least one deflection device for the targeted change in direction of the main flow, in particular a periodic reversal of the main flow. The fluidic component includes at least one filter element between the deflection device for the targeted change in direction of the main flow and the flow chamber, in particular a deflection device for generating a varying approach flow direction for the main flow. The at least one filter element is not arranged upstream of the flow chamber or at the inlet opening of the flow chamber.
