<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a vibration device capable of generating cavitation equivalent to or better than before, the vibration device being smaller and suitable also for purifying water in a small capacity. <P>SOLUTION: The vibration device 100 generating the cavitation in water includes a plurality of pillar-shaped magnetostriction elements 120, a non-magnetic fixture 130 fixing the plurality of the magnetostriction elements 120, and an exciting arrangement 150 applying an alternating magnetic field to the plurality of the magnetostriction elements 120. The magnetostriction elements 120 are installed in the water, and the exciting arrangement 150 is installed outside the water. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
