METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR AN ACOUSTIC-ELECTRIC CHANNEL MOUNTING

This technology overcomes several serious difficulties related to aligning and attaching transducers on opposite sides of a barrier like a submarine hull or the like, when the vessel is in a body of water, or other barriers where one or both sides of the barrier may be in a hostile environment, such as under high pressure, high temperature or nuclear conditions, or a liquid environment. This technology utilizes mounting members with threaded bolt holes at their periphery.

Ultrasonic High Temperature and Pressure Housing for Piezoelectric-Acoustic Channels

This technology relates to ultrasonic transducer arrangement for transmitting and receiving ultrasonic data and power to and from a barrier. Many transducer designs suffer from uneven pressure between critical surfaces, which results in warped components and degraded performance. This technology provides a transducer design that avoids these issues and provides improved performance in high temperature andor high pressure environments.
