  • Publication number: 20250205740
    Abstract: An ultrasonic component packaging structure includes a substrate, an ultrasonic component, a first pin, a second pin, and a protective shell. The substrate includes a first connection pad and a second connection pad. The ultrasonic component includes a first electrode and a second electrode that are electrically connected to the first connection pad and the second connection pad respectively. The first pin and the second pin are electrically connected to the first connection pad and the second connection pad respectively, and extend in an opposite direction of the ultrasonic component. The protective shell surrounds the substrate and the ultrasonic component, and is provided with a first opening to expose the ultrasonic component. Based on the design of the pins, the ultrasonic component can be fixed in a plugging manner, so that interference between ultrasonic components can be avoided, and a sensing distance can be effectively shortened.

  • Publication number: 20250132713
    Abstract: A transmission component assembly includes a transmission module, a short-range ultrasonic sensor, and a microprocessor. The transmission module includes a motor, a rotating shaft, and a gear wheel. The gear wheel includes a plurality of teeth with different lengths. Each of the teeth corresponds to a rotation angle of the rotating shaft. The motor drives the rotating shaft and the gear wheel to rotate. A sensing distance between the short-range ultrasonic sensor and the gear wheel is less than 8 centimeters. The short-range ultrasonic sensor generates an ultrasonic signal with a frequency greater than 500 KHz, and receives an ultrasonic reflection signal reflected by the gear wheel. A transmitting angle and a receiving angle of the short-range ultrasonic sensor are less than 10 degrees. The microprocessor calculates the rotation angle based on the sensing signal converted from the ultrasonic reflection signal, and transmits a driving signal to the motor.
