Abstract

Ultrasonic energy from an ultrasonic transducer 3 is transmitted through a member 1, such as the wall of a vessel, on which the transducer is mounted. A cylindrical projection 2 is formed integral with the member, and the ultrasonic transducer main body is attached to the projection, e.g. by screwing the body onto outer threads of the cylindrical projection. The cylindrical projection is designed to form the lower part of the ultrasonic transducer.
