Novel Traveling Wave Sandwich Piezoelectric Transducer with Single Phase Drive: Theoretical Modeling, Experimental Validation, and Application Investigation
Abstract Most of traditional traveling wave piezoelectric transducers are driven by two phase different excitation signals, leading to a complex control system and seriously limiting their applications in industry. To overcome these issues, a novel traveling wave sandwich piezoelectric transducer wi...

Abstract Most of traditional traveling wave piezoelectric transducers are driven by two phase different excitation signals, leading to a complex control system and seriously limiting their applications in industry. To overcome these issues, a novel traveling wave sandwich piezoelectric transducer with a single-phase drive is proposed in this study. Traveling waves are produced in two driving rings of the transducer while the longitudinal vibration is excited in its sandwich composite beam, due to the coupling property of the combined structure. This results in the production of elliptical motions in the two driving rings to achieve the drive function. An analytical model is firstly developed using the transfer matrix method to analyze the dynamic behavior of the proposed transducer. Its vibration characteristics are measured and compared with computational results to validate the effectiveness of the proposed analytical model. Besides, the driving concept of the transducer is investigated by computing the motion trajectory of surface points of the driving ring and the quality of traveling wave of the driving ring. Additionally, application example investigations on the driving effect of the proposed transducer are carried out by constructing and assembling a tracked mobile system.
