Abstract:
A holding structure ( 2 ) in an ultrasonic vibration welding device that welds workpieces by applying ultrasonic waves to the workpieces holds an ultrasonic vibration transmitter (horn) ( 5 ) bearing the transmission of longitudinally vibrating ultrasonic waves in holding members ( 8, 8 ). The horn comprises a horn body ( 51 ) having the length of one-half the wavelength λ of the ultra-sonic vibration. Holding structure ( 2 ) includes holders ( 7 x,  7 y ) having a prescribed volume and thin sheet connectors ( 6 a,  6 b ) placed at different positions (Pa, Pb) on the horn body ( 51 ). The horn body ( 51 ) is fixed to holding members ( 8, 8 ) by means of the respective holders ( 7 x,  7 y ).

Claim (Index 3):
The holding structure of the ultrasonic vibration transmission mechanism of  claim 1  wherein the abovementioned S-shaped thin sheet connectors are constructed at a prescribed thickness of less than 5/100 of a wave length of the ultrasonic wave transmitted, the flat thin sheet connectors are constructed at a prescribed thickness of less than 3/100 of a wavelength of the ultrasonic wave transmitted, and the flat surface of the respective holders are disposed parallel to the wave surface of the longitudinally vibrating ultrasonic wave.
