Abstract: The invention discloses various embodiments of an ultrasonic motor and converter adapted to be used in home or industrial ultrasonic devices. The ultrasonic motor is generally of a piezoelectric material having a removable tip or of a design in which the complete motor is contained in a housing, which housing has electrical contact means adapted to be plugged into an adapter which, in turn, is connected to a converter. The motor is designed such that frequency sensing means is provided therein and the feedback signal is utilized by the converter to adjust itself thereto. The converter includes tuned circuit means tuned to a band including a desired frequency for sustaining the vibration of said motor at the desired frequency.

Abstract: Ultrasonic systems for use in consumer, and other applications, having electromechanical motor systems providing bursts of ultrasonic mechanical vibration at an applicator repeated at a sonic frequency to produce both ultrasonic and sonic vibratory motion and effect during use of said applicator.
