摘要： A vibration actuator includes a vibration element, which simultaneously generates a radial symmetric expansion vibration mode in which it expands and contracts in the radial direction and a non-axisymmetric planar vibration mode in which it bends to and fro in a non-axisymmetric manner within a single plane, and thereby drives a relative movement member, and a base member to which the vibration element is fixed. The vibration element includes at least one superimposed layer structure comprising a pair of electrical energy to mechanical energy conversion elements and an elastic member sandwiched between the pair of electrical energy to mechanical energy conversion elements. The elastic member includes a ring shaped portion to both the sides of which the pair of electrical energy to mechanical energy conversion elements are stuck, and a cylindrical shaped support portion, formed integrally with the ring shaped portion, which fixes the vibration element to the base member. The support portion includes an elastic portion which suppresses the transmission of vibration generated by the vibration element to the base member.

摘要： A vibration actuator drive device using a linear type of ultrasonic actuator to drive a rotary member with high accuracy and good efficiency. The vibration actuator drive device includes an ultrasonic actuator which, by applying drive signals, produces longitudinal vibration and bending vibration to generate a drive force, and a rotary member in contact with the ultrasonic actuator. The combination of longitudinal vibration and bending vibration in the ultrasonic actuator generates relative motion in the rotary member having a circular locus of predetermined width. A compression mechanism causes compressive contact of the ultrasonic actuator with the rotary member. The longitudinal vibration vibrates in a direction about parallel to the direction of the drive force, and the bending vibration vibrates in a direction intersecting the longitudinal vibration. A drive force is transmitted to the rotary member at the inner circumferential side of the circular locus, and greatly differs from the drive force which is transmitted to the rotary member at the outer circumferential side. A lens barrel including a vibration actuator drive device drives a focus adjustment lens group in the optical axis direction by the conversion of the rotary motion of the rotary member to linear motion.

摘要： A compact and lightweight image blur suppression device is shown and described that is superior in responsiveness and quietness, and has a reduced number of parts. In general, a lens frame with an image blur optical system is shifted in a direction opposite to the direction of vibration by a vibration motor. The image blur suppression device is for suppressing image blur in an image formed by a main optical system having an optical axis. The image blur suppression device has an image blur suppression optical system arranged to move within a plane substantially orthogonal to an optical axis of the main optical system and a vibration motor for providing a drive source to move the image blur suppression optical system so as to compensate for image blur.

摘要： A control circuit generates a control signal which is of a low level during a certain period of time after the power supply of a solid state imager has been turned on or a power save mode thereof has been canceled, and of a high level after elapse of the period of time. Based on the control signal, a timing generator generates transfer clock signals having a high frequency than when the solid state imager is in a normal transfer mode, and applies the transfer clock signals to a CCD shift register to remove or transfer excessive invalid charges at a high rate therefrom. After the power supply has been turned on or the power save mode has been canceled, therefore, the time required to bring the solid state imager into a condition capable of imaging a subject is shortened.
