ABSTRACT:
A transducer includes one or more electro-acoustic motors located on a same internal plane or as a peripheral ring of a flexible envelope to which they are interdependent by at least one-of their ends by an assembling device and to which they transmit their vibrations, the flexible envelope being in contact with the liquid and constituting the acoustic waves emitting surface. The flexible envelope is shaped such that the amplitude of the vibrations is increased in a range of very low frequency. The envelope includes at least one orifice allowing the liquid to enter the whole internal cavity delimited by the envelope and a baffle made up of alveolar material that resists the immersion pressure and fills most of the cavity volume. The external surface of the baffle is at a constant distance from that of the interior of the envelope and is interdependent to the assembling device of the acoustic motors. As a result, the transducer produces very low frequency waves when used in liquid at great depths without being complicated in design.
