    摘要: A method for driving an ultrasonic motor includes the step of applying a driving alternating signal to an ultrasonic vibrator to simultaneously generate two different vibration modes in the ultrasonic vibrator to cause a substantially elliptical vibration at friction-contact members of the ultrasonic vibrator, thus relatively moving the ultrasonic vibrator and a driven body in contact with the ultrasonic vibrator. A preliminary vibration domain in which a preliminary vibration smaller than the substantially elliptical vibration is generated at the friction-contact members is provided prior to a main vibration domain in which the driving alternating signal is applied.

    摘要: A method is provided to drive an ultrasonic-actuator by supplying an alternating signal to an ultrasonic transducer in which piezoelectric plates and internal electrodes are alternately stacked. A frequency at which a phase difference between a voltage and current of the alternating signal is in a predetermined state is detected from a frequency range in which an amplitude ratio between the voltage and the current of the alternating signal is more than or equal to a predetermined value, and the driving frequency is set to the detected frequency.
