Abstract: A resonator for joining metal members utilizing ultrasonic vibration includes an ultrasonic horn having a length of at least half wavelength of a resonance frequency of ultrasonic vibration transmitted from a vibrator, and a joining tool provided on the ultrasonic horn so as to project in a direction normal to a vibration transmission direction of the ultrasonic horn at a position of a point of a maximum vibration amplitude of the ultrasonic horn. The joining tool is formed into a linear bar made of a material excellent in acoustic property and is provided on a distal end thereof with a tool head projecting laterally.

Abstract: A resonator is used for ultrasonic machining and attached to the side or bottom of a liquid tank so as to pass through the liquid tank used in ultrasonic machining equipment for dipping a workpiece part in machining liquid given supersonic vibration. The resonator includes a working vessel formed in one end of the resonator within the liquid tank as a dent opening upward so as to enable the workpiece part to be inserted therein from above and part of the machining liquid in the liquid tank to be accommodated therein as separated from the machining liquid in the liquid tank.

Abstract: To stabilize bonding strength by concentrating bonding energy upon members to be bonded together, when an overlapped interface of a plurality of members to be bonded together is to be bonded by ultrasonic vibration, heaters 6 and 7 are caused to generate heat to heat the bonding working portion 3d of a resonator 2, whereby bonding energy generated by ultrasonic vibration and bonding energy generated by heating are provided to the interface so that bonding energy can be concentrated upon the interface without increasing the energy of ultrasonic vibration and bonding strength can be stabilized. Further, when electric heaters are used as the heaters 6 and 7, operationability is improved. Moreover, when heater holes 3e and 3f are formed in the resonator 2 and electric heaters are fitted into the holes 3e and 3f, heater installation work is facilitated. The heater may be provided in the mount.
