摘要:
An ultrasonic motor has a longitudinal-torsional composite transducer, a stator constituted by an ultrasonic vibrator sandwiching the transducer, and a rotor urged against the stator. The stator excites longitudinal-torsional ultrasonic vibrations to rotate the rotor by a frictional force. The motor includes a vibration adjusting rod for matching resonance frequencies of longitudinal and torsional ultrasonic vibrations of the stator with each other.
摘要:
This invention provides an ultrasonic motor using a bolt-tightened Langevin type torsional vibrator as a stator. The stator produces a vibrational energy to be converted into a rotational energy for a rotor contacted with the stator. The rotor is provided between a piezoelectric actuator and the torsional vibrator so that the contact state between the rotor and the torsional vibrator is controlled either one of loose contact and tight contact therebetween. According to the present invention, since the piezoelectric actuator is slidingly combined to the rotor, the rotation energy is not applied to the piezoelectric actuator and thus the life time of the actuator becomes long.
摘要:
In an ultrasonic motor which uses, as a stator, a longitudinal-torsional composite vibrator in which longitudinal and torsional piezoelectric elements are sandwiched between two blocks, and urges a rotor against the stator, a member is arranged on a piezoelectric element side of the block located near the rotor, so that an inertial mass of the member becomes larger with respect to torsional vibration than that of a rotor side.

An ultrasonic motor comprises a rotor and a stator between which a pressurized face-to-face contact is established. The stator includes a longitudinal vibrator for producing a longitudinal thrust in the axial direction thereof and a torsional vibrator for transmitting a torsional thrust to the rotor in response to a longitudinal thrust timely generated by the longitudinal vibrator. The stator is supported by a structure which comprises a ring portion secured to the stator and a plurality of limb portions radially extending from the ring portion. Each of the limb portions has such an effective length and a width that the oscillation frequency of the motor matches the primary resonant frequency of a vibration of the limb portion generated on a plane normal to the axial direction of the stator and has such a thickness that the oscillation frequency matches an intermediate point between adjacent antiresonant frequencies of a vibration of the limb portion generated in the axial direction of the stator.

One driver having external electrodes arranged over both surfaces of a piezoelectric ceramic plate polarized in the direction of its thickness, and one generator having two mutually opposed interdigital electrodes on one or both surfaces of a piezoelectric cermic plate and alternateley polarized in the direction of its length between the electrode fingers of the interdigital electrodes are formed combined in alignment in the direction of the length of the piezoelectric ceramic plate. Alternatively, the driver and generator may be formed in alignment in the direction of the width of piezoelectric ceramic plate. By applying a low voltage to this piezoelectric ceramic transformer from the driver at a resonance frequency of a longitudinal vibration of second order mode of the piezoelectric ceramic plate, a high voltage can be picked up from the generator. Here, through connection of the input terminals and output terminals at the nodes of vibration, failure due to vibration of lead wires can be prevented, thereby obtaining a compact and slim transformer element that provides high reliability. A plurality of drivers and generators may also be employed, and in addition, an interdigital electrode may be used in the driver as well as in the generator.
摘要:
Low and high impedance thickness mode vibration portions are integrally laminated. Each vibrator portion comprises electrode layers between which a piezoelectric layer polarized in the direction of thickness is interposed. In each vibrator portion, every other electrode layer is connected to respective common external terminals. These common external terminals are of either four-terminal construction consisting two pairs, one pair for the low impedance mode vibrator portion and the other pair for the high impedance thickness mode vibrator portion, or three-terminal construction in which one of each pair are united together into a common terminal. Difference between the impedances is set on difference in the number of electrode layers and/or on difference in dielectric constant between the piezoelectric layers.
