Abstract
An impulse transducer that does not use eccentric, motor-driven weights is constructed of a permanent magnet movable armature that oscillates within a housing and impacts resilient bumpers to produce vibrations. The armature is accelerated by a varying magnetic field energized by an alternating current. The dimensions of the enclosed housing and the mass of the movable armature as well as the strength of the magnetic fields can be optimized for the impulse magnitude that is desired.
