  • Device for degassing light alloy melts by means of ultrasounds and system
    Patent number: 10689731
    Abstract: The device comprises a sonotrode (102) which can produce an oscillatory movement by means of a transducer (101) in order to generate ultrasound oscillation waves in said light alloy melt, when said sonotrode (102) and said melt are in contact, so as to perform the degassing; and an electronic-mechanical component (104) embedded in part of the sonotrode (102) for detecting the state of the service life or an anomaly of the sonotrode (102). The electronic-mechanical component (104) includes means for sending at least one notification signal to an electronic remote control equipment (103), forming a system together with the device. The electronic control device (103) is configured for sending an activation or deactivation signal for activation or deactivation of said transducer (101), taking into account said at least one notification signal.
