摘要:
A piezoactuator has a diaphragm, and the diaphragm has flat piezoelectric elements that oscillate in a longitudinal oscillation mode and a sinusoidal oscillation mode. A first electrode for detecting oscillation in the longitudinal oscillation mode, and a second electrode for detecting the amplitude of oscillation in the sinusoidal oscillation mode, are disposed on the surface of the diaphragm. When the piezoactuator is driven with a drive signal, the phase difference of a first detection signal output from the first electrode and a second detection signal output from the second electrode is detected. The frequency at which the detected phase difference becomes the maximum phase difference is then obtained, and a drive signal of a matching frequency is applied to the piezoelectric elements.

A tuning fork oscillating piece includes: a base; a pair of oscillating arms extending from the base in directions substantially parallel with each other; a drive piezoelectric element provided at least on one main surface or side surface of each of the oscillating arms to allow bending oscillation of the oscillating arms by piezoelectric distortion caused by applied charge; a detection piezoelectric element provided on the surface opposed to the surface of each of the oscillating arms on which the drive piezoelectric element is provided to convert the piezoelectric distortion caused by the bending oscillation of the oscillating arms into charge and output the charge. The drive piezoelectric element has a drive piezoelectric section. The detection piezoelectric element has a detection piezoelectric section. The absolute value of the piezoelectric d constant of the drive piezoelectric section is larger than the absolute value of the piezoelectric d constant of the detection piezoelectric section. The absolute value of the piezoelectric g constant of the detection piezoelectric section is larger than the absolute value of the piezoelectric g constant of the drive piezoelectric section.

A rectangular vibrating plate 10 in which a piezoelectric element and a reinforcing plate are stacked is supported on a main plate by a support member 11, and is urged toward the rotor 100 by an elastic force of the support member 11. This brings a projection 36 provided on the vibrating plate 10 into abutment with an outer peripheral surface of the rotor 100. In this construction, when the vibrating plate 10 vibrates in the horizontal direction in the figure by an applied voltage from a driving circuit (not shown), the rotor 100 is rotated in a clockwise direction in accordance with the displacement of the projection 36 due to the vibration.
摘要:
Deterioration of the Q value caused by the thermoelastic effect is suppressed. Since a first depth of a first groove and a second depth of a second groove are smaller than a distance between a surface including a third surface and a surface including a fourth surface, the first and second grooves do not penetrate between the surface including the third surface and the surface including the fourth surface. In addition, the sum of the first depth of the first groove and the second depth of the second groove is greater than the distance between the third and fourth surfaces, a heat transfer path between a first expandable portion (the first surface) and a second expandable portion (the second surface) cannot be formed as a straight line. As such, the heat transfer path between the first expandable portion (the first surface) and a second expandable portion (the second surface) is made to detour to the first and second grooves and and thus be lengthened.
