A piezoelectric motor (100) includes a stator (2) having a stator shaft (9). The motor also includes an annular piezoelement (4) having upper and lower surfaces and inner and outer rims retained on the stator. The motor further includes an annular wave shell (6) on an outer rim of the piezoelement and a rotor coupled to the stator shaft, where the rotor has a rotor inner circumferential surface (20). The motor additionally includes elastic pushers (8), each having an end coupled to the wave shell and another end extending to and contacting the rotor inner circumferential surface. In the motor, a radius of the outer rim is at least twice the radius of the inner rim and an annular width of the piezoelement is at least twice its thickness.
摘要:
A piezoelectric ultrasonic suspension in gas for creating a contactless bearing support of a precision instrument and specifically an electromagnetic motor. A gas micro-film of elevated pressure is formed between the adjoining surfaces of a spherical saddle and a spherical trunnion. The spherical trunnion is spaced apart from the spherical surface of a saddle by a gas micro-film when the piezoresonator is excited.
