Ultrasonic oscillation (sweep oscillation) system for controlling nonlinear phenomena

The Ultrasonic System Research Institute has developed a technology to control the nonlinear vibration phenomena of surface elastic waves based on the acoustic characteristics of original ultrasonic probes. The key point is the setting of sweep oscillation conditions using two ultrasonic probes (essentially, it cannot be controlled with just one probe for ultrasonic oscillation control. By combining the oscillation settings of the two probes, the occurrence of resonance phenomena and nonlinear phenomena can be controlled). Resonance phenomena and nonlinear phenomena can be controlled within a frequency range tailored to the intended use. In particular, when strong stimulation is required, this is achieved by utilizing low-frequency resonance phenomena (e.g., breaking glass). When high-frequency stimulation is needed, this is achieved by utilizing high-frequency nonlinear phenomena (e.g., 700 MHz stimulation).

- Surface modification technology (stress relaxation and uniformity) through nonlinear oscillation control of original ultrasonic probes -

The Ultrasonic System Research Institute has made it possible to control the nonlinear propagation state of ultrasound by utilizing measurement, analysis, and control technologies related to the propagation state of ultrasound as the acoustic characteristics of the target object. As a result, we have developed and advanced technology to efficiently alleviate residual stress on the surface of components. This technology for alleviating surface residual stress improves fatigue strength against metal fatigue and achieves uniformity in various surface treatments. In particular, by considering the guided waves (surface elastic waves) of the target object in the setting and control of the ultrasonic propagation state, we have developed control methods and tools that realize effective dynamic changes in the target object as stimuli that include nonlinear phenomena. We have confirmed a wide range of effects on various types of metal parts, resin parts, and powder materials.

<<Deaeration Fine Bubble Generation Liquid Circulation Device>> 1) By narrowing the suction side of the pump, cavitation is generated. 2) Cavitation causes bubbles of dissolved gas to form. The above describes the state of the deaeration liquid circulation device. 3) When the concentration of dissolved gas decreases, the size of the bubbles formed by cavitation becomes smaller. 4) Through appropriate liquid circulation, fine bubbles of less than 20μ are generated. The above describes the state of the deaeration microbubble generation liquid circulation device. 5) When ultrasonic waves are applied to the above-mentioned deaeration fine bubble generation liquid circulation device, the ultrasonic waves disperse and crush the fine bubbles, and when measuring the fine bubbles, the distribution of ultrafine bubbles becomes greater than that of fine bubbles. The above state indicates that ultrasonic waves can be stably controlled. 6) In the state where ultrasonic waves can be stably controlled, the original product: a megahertz ultrasonic oscillation control probe is used to control the oscillation of megahertz ultrasonic waves. The method of controlling the sound pressure level is achieved by controlling the original nonlinear resonance phenomenon of liquid circulation and megahertz ultrasonic waves, setting and controlling it to an effective dynamic state.
