Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a miniature ultrasonic motor with the diameter of its rotor reduced small by supporting the node of vibration of a piezoelectric elliptic movement vibrator with a ring-shaped supporting frame to equalize the influence on the vibration and to allow the motor to excite stable elliptic movement. CONSTITUTION:The node of vibration of a piezoelectric ceramic column 11 is supported by a ring-shaped supporting frame 12. On both ends of the column 11 a cup-shaped rotor 13 is installed with the end of the column 11 inserted into its hollow cylinder section with minute clearance. The ring-shaped supporting frame 12 is inserted into a cylindrical outer frame 14 and fixed to it. A lead wire is pulled out from a lead wire outlet hole 16 provided to the cylindrical outer frame 14. When the end of the column 11 performs elliptic movement, the shaft of the cup-shaped rotor 13 rotates stably as it is rotatably supported by a bearing 17 inserted into the outer frame.
