Abstract

An ultrasonic anvil cartridge for use in association with ultrasonic apparatuses for sealing at least two layers of ultrasonic reactive material. The ultrasonic anvil cartridge cooperates with an anvil housing and an ultrasonic wave generator towards maintaining a substantially even pressure across at least two layers of ultrasonic reactive material such that a substantially even and tight seal can be formed across at least two layers of ultrasonic reactive material. The ultrasonic anvil cartridge includes a plurality of substantially C-shaped support members which are operably and successively aligned so as to be positioned one adjacent another. This plurality of substantially C-shaped members is further encapsulated in substantially elastomeric encapsulating material which is operably positioned within the collective concave surface of the plurality of substantially C-shaped support members to form a unitary cartridge having a substantially convex exterior surface.
