Abstract (en)

[origin: DE19825581A1] The transformer comprises an insulating layer (3) between two electrically conductive films (9,10) made of a conductive plastic film. An Independent claim is made for a process for manufacturing the ultrasonic film transformer in which an electrically conductive film (9) is laminated with the insulating film (3) and a second conductive film (10) is applied to the laminated foil. Preferred Features: One conductive film is non-textured and forms a vibrating membrane while the second conductive film is textured to form individual electrodes and conductive paths and is mushroom shaped in cross-section.
