Abstract:
A piezoelectric microblower includes a vibrating plate including a piezoelectric element and arranged to be driven in a bending mode by applying a voltage of a predetermined frequency to the piezoelectric element, and a blower body arranged to fix both ends or a periphery of the vibrating plate and to define a blower chamber between the blower body and the vibrating plate, an opening being provided in a portion of the blower body facing a central portion of the vibrating plate. In a portion of the blower chamber corresponding to the central portion of the vibrating plate, a partition is provided around the opening and a resonance space is defined inside of the partition. A size of the resonance space is set such that a driving frequency of the vibrating plate and a Helmholtz resonance frequency of the resonance space correspond to each other.
