摘要: Columnar multi-axis microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) devices (such as gyroscopes) balanced against undesired linear and angular vibration are described herein. In some embodiments, the columnar MEMS device may comprise at least two multiple-mass columns, each having at least three proof masses and being configured to sense rotation about a respective axis. The motion and mass of the proof masses may be controlled to achieve linear and rotational balancing of the MEMS device. The columnar MEMS device may further comprise one or more modular drive structures disposed alongside each multiple-mass column to facilitate displacement of the proof masses of a respective column. The MEMS devices described herein may be used to sense roll, yaw, and pitch angular rates.

摘要: A gyroscope with a first Coriolis mass quartet and a second Coriolis mass quartet arranged around two quartet center points, and two elongated mass elements or synchronization bars aligned with each other outside of each Coriolis mass. One end of each elongated mass element and synchronization bar is attached to the corresponding Coriolis mass. Each elongated mass element is suspended from a peripheral anchor point by a mass element suspension arrangement which allows said elongated mass element to undergo rotational motion both in the device plane and out of the device plane. Each elongated synchronization bar is suspended from a peripheral anchor point by a synchronization bar suspension arrangement which allows said elongated synchronization bar to undergo rotational motion both in the device plane and out of the device plane substantially around its midpoint.

摘要: A micromechanical rotation rate sensor system and a corresponding manufacturing method are described. The micromechanical rotation rate sensor system includes a first rotation rate sensor unit drivable rotatorily about a first axis in an oscillating manner for detecting a first outside rotation rate about a second axis and a second outside rotation rate about a third axis, the first, second and third axes being situated perpendicularly to one another, and a second rotation rate sensor unit linearly drivable by a drive unit along the second axis in an oscillating manner for detecting a third outside rotation rate about the first axis. The second rotation rate sensor unit is connected to the first rotation rate sensor unit via a first coupling unit for driving the first rotation rate sensor unit by the drive unit.

摘要: An integrated MEMS structure includes a driving assembly anchored to a substrate and actuated with a driving movement. A pair of sensing masses suspended above the substrate and coupled to the driving assembly via elastic elements is fixed in the driving movement and performs a movement along a first direction of detection, in response to an external stress. A coupling assembly couples the pair of sensing masses mechanically to couple the vibration modes. The coupling assembly is formed by a rigid element, which connects the sensing masses and has a point of constraint in an intermediate position between the sensing masses, and elastic coupling elements for coupling the rigid element to the sensing masses to present a first stiffness to a movement in phase-opposition and a second stiffness, greater than the first, to a movement in phase, of the sensing masses along the direction of detection.

摘要: A vibration type angular velocity sensor includes a substrate having a surface; a plurality of fixation parts, a plurality of weights, two linear drive beams, a plurality of supporting members, a drive part and a detection part. The two linear drive beams are disposed on opposite sides of the weights in one direction so as to be connected to each other through the weights. The supporting members join the fixation parts to the drive beams. The drive part drives the drive beams to vibrate. The detection part generates an electric output according to displacement of the weights caused by an angular velocity applied thereto while the drive beams are being driven to vibrate. The fixation parts are disposed between the two linear drive beams.

摘要: A system is disclosed for suspension of a mobile mass, such as an inertial angular sensor, including a connection device including first and second connection elements connected to each other through a connection block and deformable in bending in a mobility plane so as to enable displacements relative to the connection block, of the mobile mass connected to the first connection element, and of another element of the system connected to the second connection element such as a support or another mobile mass respectively, along two distinct directions respectively. At least one of the connection elements is formed from two springs, connecting the connection block to the mobile mass or the other element of the system respectively. The connection element thus has improved linearity properties.
