Anvil and ultrasonic sealing apparatus

Abstract

An anvil of an ultrasonic sealing apparatus that includes a horn provided with a strip-shaped vibration applying surface at an end face thereof, the anvil being provided with an abutment surface at an end face thereof, the ultrasonic sealing apparatus sandwiching a laminate of two or more sheets between the vibration applying surface and the abutment surface and melting thermoplastic resin on the sheets by ultrasonic vibration delivered to the vibration applying surface, thereby bonding the laminate. The abutment surface includes a strip-shaped welding surface portion projected toward the horn, and the end face thereof is opposed to the vibration applying surface, and a plurality of block members arranged along the strip-shaped welding surface portion in an extending direction of the welding surface portion without being in contact with each other, and the plurality of block members has a height equal to or lower than the welding surface portion.
