Patent
CA 2455992
An ultrasonic probe is provided in which an elongate array of transducers 14 is disposed within an elongate coupling element 28 which is mounted for rotation about an axle. The profile of the coupling element is chosen so as to provide a substantially uniform contact force with a surface over a predetermined area. To achieve this the radius of the coupling element varies along its length.
L'invention concerne une sonde ultrasonore dans laquelle un réseau allongé de transducteurs (14 ) est disposé dans un élément de couplage allongé (28) et monté aux fins de rotation autour d'un axe. Le profil de l'élément de couplage est choisi de manière à fournir une force de contact sensiblement uniforme avec une surface sur une zone prédéterminée. Afin d'obtenir un tel résultat, le rayon de l'élément de couplage varie sur la longueur de celui-ci.
