Definitions
- Rate of rotation sensor with a a main extension plane having sub strate and at least one mass oscillator
- the invention relates to a rotation rate sensor according to the preamble of claim 1.
- Micromechanical rotation rate sensors are known from the prior art in minutias.
- a common operating principle is the detection of a rate of rotation over the effect of the associated Coriolis force.
- one or more mass oscillators are placed in periodic motion, so that by the rotation of a perpendicular to the direction of motion we kende force comes off.
- the periodic movement is maintained by a drive structure, which is coupled by spring elements to the mass oscillator.
- the mass vibrator In order to detect the Coriolis force, the mass vibrator must, in addition, be mounted so that it can swing in a direction perpendicular to the drive direction. This suspension is provided by spring elements which are anchored to the substrate.
- the distances and relative positions of the anchor points can change, which distorts the dy namic properties of the suspended mass oscillator who the.
- the gyroscope according to the invention according to the main claim has the advantage over the sensors known from the prior art that the effects of substrate distortions by the positioning of the anchoring elements are reduced. If it comes to compressions or strains of the substrate due to mechanical stresses or thermal factors, the distance change of two substrate points is greater the farther the two points are apart. Due to the inventive positioning of Ankerele elements in the vicinity of the geometric center of the mass oscillator move the anchor points closer together, so that the change in distance between the anchor points is reduced.
- the geometrical center in this context is understood to mean the geometical center of gravity, i. the point that results from averaging all the points of the mass oscillator.
- the geometric center is not identical to the center of mass, but the two points are usually close to each other in the cases relevant here. Since primarily the extent of the mass oscillator in the main plane of extension is relevant here, the geometric center substantially corresponds to the center of area of the projection of the mass oscillator on the main extension plane.
- the position information of the anchor elements in each case relate to the points at which the anchor elements are connected to the substrate. In the following, these points are also referred to as anchor points.
- the first and second anchor element are arranged symmetrically to the geometric center of the mass oscillator. This is particularly relevant in cases where the mass oscillator itself has a symmetry, such as an axis symmetry with respect to a central axis.
- a suspension can be realized, which maintains the symmetry of the device and supports the mass oscillator in the middle of balanced manner.
- the first and second anchor element are spaced apart in the excitation direction.
- the mass oscillator is advantageously anchored at different locations in the substrate, with both locations being close to the geometric center, so that the robustness according to the invention is achieved with respect to substrate distortions.
- the choice of the distance depends on additional factors, such as the design and positioning of the spring elements, so that the overall results in a well-balanced storage for the mass oscillator.
- the first and second anchor element adjoin one another directly or substantially coincide.
- the technical effect of the invention is maximized, as a distortion of the substrate practically does not change the relative distance of the anchor points. Fall the two anchor element together and form a single anchor element, with which both spring elements are connected, also results in an advantageous simplification of the overall structure of the micro-mechanical sensor.
- the first and second anchor element are in the excitation direction on a line.
- the connecting line between the two anchor points is parallel to the direction of excitation.
- the mass oscillator has a frame and the first and second spring element are connected to the frame.
- the first and second spring element each extend substantially in the direction of excitation between the first and second anchor point and the Rah men.
- the springs can be present in this embodiment, for example, as a flexible beam, so that the deflection of the mass oscillator in the detection direction is made possible by a bending of the beams.
- the Rah men is formed axisymmetric to a running through the geometric center of the mass oscillator and parallel to the detection direction central axis.
- the rotation rate sensor has a fixedly connected to the substrate third and fourth to kerelement, wherein the mass oscillator is connected via a third spring element with the third anchor element and is connected via a fourth spring element with the fourth anchor element.
- the mass oscillator is connected via springs with four anchor elements, which can be advantageously realized a particularly stable and balanced suspension.
- the inventive concept is here realized by at least the first and second anchor element are arranged in the vicinity of the center, whereby compared to the conventional suspensions already results in a reduction of the distances of all anchor elements. Especially before given to the third and fourth anchor element as close to the center are arranged, unless such positioning is not precluded further constructive or other reasons.
- the first and second anchor element are arranged within the frame and the third and fourth anchor element arranged outside the frame. Positioning the first and second anchor members within the frame facilitates positioning near the geometric center. Denk bar is also that the third and fourth anchor element are also arranged within the frame.
- the third and fourth anchor element are arranged symmetrically to the center point passing through the geometric center of the mass oscillator and parallel to the direction of detection. Similar to the above-proposed imple mentation form, in which the first and second anchor element are symmetrical to the central axis, can also be realized in this way a uniform and ausba launched suspension.
- the third and fourth spring element are each connected to a corner of the frame.
- the third and fourth anchor element are arranged offset with respect to the corners of the mass oscillator in the direction of the central axis extending through the geometric center of the mass oscillator and parallel to the direction of detection.
- the offset of the third and fourth anchor element in the direction of the central axis allows a suspension in which all four anchor elements approach closer to the geo metric center, whereby the technical effect of robustness to substrate distortions advantageously comes particularly strong effect.

- FIG. 2 shows a schematic representation of a rotation rate sensor according to a first exemplary embodiment of the present invention.
- FIG. 3 shows a schematic representation of a rotation rate sensor according to a second exemplary embodiment of the present invention.

- a Coriolis force which is directed perpendicular to the excitation direction 4 and perpendicular to the axis of rotation. Does this force a component in the detection direction 5, this leads to a deflection of the Massenschwin gers 2 in this direction.
