摘要:
The present invention provides a piezo-electric/electrostrictive device including a pair of thin plate sections in an opposed relation to each other, a fixing section for supporting the thin plate sections, and at least one pair of piezo-electric/electrostrictive elements are provided to the pair of thin plate sections. The thin plate sections include movable sections having end surfaces in an opposed relation. Recesses between the thin plate sections are filled with a filler are formed at the boundaries between the thin plate sections, and the fixing section and the movable sections. As a result, the impact resistance of the device is enhanced. The present invention also relates to a method for producing such a device.

A piezoelectric/electrostrictive device comprises a pair of mutually opposing thin plate sections, a movable section, and a fixation section for supporting the thin plate sections and the movable section. A piezoelectric/electrostrictive element is arranged on at least one thin plate section of the pair of thin plate sections. A hole is formed by the inner walls of the pair of thin plate sections, the movable section and the fixation section. A central portion of the movable section is cut off to form mutually opposing end surfaces in the movable section.

A piezoelectric/electrostrictive device including a pair of mutually opposing thin plate sections and a fixation section for supporting the thin plate sections. A piezoelectric/electrostrictive element is arranged on each of the pair of thin plate sections. Movable sections, having mutually opposing end surfaces, are formed proximate the ends of the thin plate sections. A distance between the end surfaces is not less than a length of the movable sections.

An axial-flow particle sensor has a sensor element and a housing. The outlet of fluid is placed at the opposite side of the inlet of the fluid, throughholes are formed at the circumference of the vibrating portion of the sensor element, and the vibrating portion of the sensor element is placed on the extension of the flow of the fluid so that the fluid entering from the inlet flows through the throughholes and flows out from the outlet. Two or more throughholes may be formed symmetrically with the axis. The throughhole may be formed on a ceramic substrate, or may be a gap between the ceramic substrate and the housing.

A ceramic compact having a patterned conductor is obtained by coating the patterned conductor with a slurry and then by hardening the slurry. The slurry is prepared by mixing a thermosetting resin precursor, a ceramic powder, and a medium. In the ceramic compact, an isocyanate- or isothiocyanate-containing gelling agent and a hydroxyl-containing polymer are reacted and hardened to produce a thermosetting resin. The hydroxyl-containing polymer is preferably a butyral resin, an ethylcellulose-based resin, a polyethyleneglycol-based resin, or a polyether-based resin.

A piezoelectric/electrostrictive device is provided, including a rotor substantially in the form of a rectangular parallelepiped. The rotor has a pair of opposed surfaces, a first movable section fixed to a first end of one of the surfaces, a first piezoelectric/electrostrictive element for actuating the first movable section, and a second movable section fixed to a second end of the other one of the surfaces. The second end is diametrically opposed to the first end. A second piezoelectric/electrostrictive element for actuating the second movable section is also included.

A piezoelectric/electrostrictive (P/E) device includes at least one actuator section secured to thin plate sections with an adhesive. The actuator section includes a multilayered member including at least three actuator films, each of which include a P/E layer and electrode films. One or more holes or recesses are formed in portions of the thin plate sections on which the P/E elements are formed. The electrode films contact upper and lower surfaces of respective P/E layers and alternately extend to opposite surfaces thereof. End surface electrodes electrically connect an electrode film that contacts one of the P/E layers and an electrode film that contacts another one of the P/E layers. The end surface electrodes are electrically connected to terminals which are provided on a surface of an outermost layer of the P/E layers, and which are separated from one another by a predetermined distance.

A piezoelectric/electrostrictive including a pair of mutually opposing vibration plates, each having a first portion and a second portion, a fixation section joined to the first portion of each of the vibration plates, and at least one piezoelectric/electrostrictive element arranged on at least one of the vibration plates. A surface of the device between the fixation section and the second portion of at least one of the vibration plates is curved.
摘要:
A piezoelectric/electrostrictive device includes a pair of mutually opposing thin plate sections, a movable section, and a fixing section for supporting the thin plate sections and the movable section. Piezoelectric/electrostrictive elements are arranged on at least one thin plate section of the pair of thin plate sections. A hole is formed by both inner walls of the pair of thin plate sections, an inner wall of the movable section, and an inner wall of the fixing section. The piezoelectric/electrostrictive device has a mechanism for restricting amplitude of the thin plate sections. The mechanism includes a cavity portion formed in the inner wall of the movable section and a stopper member provided on the inner wall of the fixing section, wherein the forward end of the stopper member extends into the cavity portion.
