  • Ultrasound transducer having at least one piezoelectric oscillator
    Patent number: 11786934
    Abstract: An ultrasound transducer with at least one piezoelectric oscillator, a damping compound and at least one electrically conductive conducting element that is in contact with the piezoelectric oscillator. The damping compound in an ultrasound transducer encloses at least the at least one conducting element, and the composite structure of the at least one conducting element and of the damping compound is designed such that the composite structure is in contact over an area with the piezoelectric oscillator, and forms a support on the side of the ultrasound transducer that faces away from the piezoelectric oscillator on which the ultrasound transducer can be supported.
    Type: Grant
