ULTRASONIC WELDING APPARATUS AND ULTRASONIC WELDING METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18031508 titled 'ULTRASONIC WELDING APPARATUS AND ULTRASONIC WELDING METHOD

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes an ultrasonic welding apparatus that includes several components for efficient welding.

  • The apparatus includes a pressing force measuring anvil with a sensor to measure the pressing force.
  • A horn is installed above the pressing force measuring anvil and can move vertically. It presses the anvil when it moves downward.
  • A horn down stroke adjustment part is included to adjust the down stroke of the horn. This ensures that the pressing force of the horn falls within a preset range.
  • The apparatus also includes a welding anvil, which supports the welding target members to be welded by the horn. The position of the welding anvil is changed to align with the pressing force measuring anvil after the down stroke of the horn is adjusted.
  • The purpose of this apparatus is to provide precise control over the pressing force of the horn during ultrasonic welding, resulting in more accurate and efficient welding processes.


Original Abstract Submitted

An ultrasonic welding apparatus includes: a pressing force measuring anvil including a pressing force measuring sensor; a horn which is installed to vertically move above the pressing force measuring anvil and presses the pressing force measuring anvil when moving downward; a horn down stroke adjustment part that adjusts a down stroke of the horn so that a pressing force of the horn is within a preset pressing force range; and a welding anvil on which welding target members to be welded by the horn are and supportable by the welding anvil and of which a position is changed to a position of the pressing force measuring anvil so that the welding anvil is positioned under the horn after the down stroke of the horn is adjusted to be within the preset pressing force range.
