Transducer assembly with explosive shock protection

摘要

A Tonpilz transducer having head and tail masses with an interposed active transducer section. The transducer unit is positioned within a housing which has a shoulder portion upon which rests a snubber member which extends to a position just behind the head mass. The transducer is supported from the head mass by means of a thin fiberglass tube which extends from the rear of the head mass and engages a flange portion of the snubber member in the vicinity of the housing shoulder. The housing has a waterproof covering as does the head member with the covering of the head member being secured to the covering by means of a removable strap such that the transducer assembly may be disassembled for repair.
