Abstract:
1. An asymmetrically accelerated vibrator comprising: a case having a first bore and a second bore arranged in coaxial relation to one another and in regulated fluid communication with a source of compressed fluid wherein a compressed fluid conduit is defined within said case, and arranged in fluid communication between a compressed fluid intake port and a threaded recess that is defined in said case; a first piston having a first diameter disposed in said first bore; a second piston having a second diameter disposed in said second bore; a mechanical connection between said first and second pistons such that said pistons are caused to oscillate in unison by regulated application of compressed fluid from said compressed fluid source; and a ball-valve disposed in fluid regulatory relation between said first bore, said second bore, and said source of compressed fluid so as to switch a flow of said compressed fluid between said first bore and said second bore upon interaction with a portion of said second piston.
