Zusammenfassung:PCT No. PCT/FR87/00463 Sec. 371 Date Jul. 17, 1989 Sec. 102(e) Date Jul. 17, 1989 PCT Filed Nov. 24, 1987 PCT Pub. No. WO88/04088 PCT Pub. Date Jun. 2, 1988.A curved bar probe (1) for an echograph is fabricated by using a thin support (2) on which is placed a bar of piezoelectric crystal. The bar is divided into a plurality of piezoelectric transducers elements (3). The thin support presents the particularity of being rigid at room temperature but is thermodeformable. By subjecting it to a heating-cooling cycle during which it is given a desired curved shape, a rigid bar having an imposed curved shape is obtained. It is then possible to avoid the adhesion of said support to a base (16). This would form a back-reflecting surface for acoustic waves and would create interference harmful to the useful acoustic signal.
