Transducer and a bonding apparatus using the same

摘要

A transducer vibrated by a vibrator and used in a bonding apparatus, the transducer including holding portions and connecting portions. The holding portions are provided so as to protrude at at least two locations that correspond to the nodes of vibration of a transducer main body, and the connecting portions each connects the tip ends of two protruding holding portions to each other. The external force applied to one of the holding portions is thus dispersed in each of the respective holding portions connected by the connecting portions, deformation of the holding portions is prevented, and the respective holding portions can be formed extremely thin in the axial direction of the transducer main body.
