ABSTRACT:
In an ultrasonic transmitter-receiver for an apparatus for measuring the position or distance of an object, a composite vibrating unit is constructed with a piezoelectric vibrator and a cone, wherein a substantial conical vertex of the cone is connected to a center of vibration of the piezoelectric vibrator, and a node of vibration is generated on the cone at positions symmetrical about its center axis when the piezoelectric vibrator vibrates with deflection.
