A conventional vibration generating device used for such an application has a structure disclosed in patent document 1, for example. Hereinafter, the structure of a conventional vibration generating device will be described with reference to fig. 9. Fig. 9 is an explanatory diagram showing the structure of a conventional vibration generating device, and shows the structure of a conventional vibration generating device 101 according to patent document 1. In fig. 9, the X direction, the Y direction, and the Z direction respectively represent three directions orthogonal to each other.
As shown in fig. 9, a conventional vibration generating device 101 according to patent document 1 includes a case 110, a vibrator 120 housed in the case 110, a support member 130 that holds the vibrator 120, an elastic support member 133 that supports the vibrator 120 and the support member 130 so as to be capable of vibrating, and a magnetic driving unit 140 that drives the vibrator 120 using magnetic force.

Prior art documents
Patent document 1: japanese laid-open patent publication No. 2012-125730
In the conventional vibration generating device 101 according to patent document 1, the first elastic deformation portion 136 is a portion that extends in the X direction and is bent a plurality of times so that a fold line extends in the Z direction. In the case where the first elastically deforming portion 136 is configured in this way, the first elastically deforming portion 136 elastically deforms not only in the X direction by expansion and contraction but also in the Y direction by deflection. Therefore, when the balance between the force with which the permanent magnet 142a attracts the vibrator 120 and the force with which the permanent magnet 142b attracts the vibrator 120 is out of balance, the vibrator 120 is attracted to the permanent magnet 142a side or the permanent magnet 142b side, and vibrates at a position deviated in the Y direction. As a result, there is a technical problem that the vibration operation of the vibrator 120 is liable to become unstable.

The leaf spring having such a bent structure is characterized in that it is easily elastically deformed in a direction orthogonal to the fold line and is hardly deformed in a direction along the fold line. Therefore, the elastic support portion can be easily elastically deformed in the first direction and the second direction, and deformation of the elastic support portion in the third direction can be suppressed. As a result, the movement of the vibrator in the third direction can be suppressed, and the vibration operation of the vibrator in the first direction and the second direction can be stabilized.

In the vibration generating device having this configuration, the opening portion is formed at a position of the flat portion that is away from the outer peripheral portion, whereby the elastic deformation portion can be easily deformed in the first direction and the second direction while suppressing the elastic deformation portion from being easily deformed in the third direction. Further, by adjusting the size of the opening portion, the degree of difficulty of elastic deformation of the elastic deformation portion in the first direction and the second direction can be adjusted. As a result, the vibration operation of the vibrator can be stabilized, the vibrator can be easily vibrated in the first direction and the second direction, and the degree of difficulty of the vibration of the vibrator can be adjusted.
The vibration generating device according to claim 3 is characterized in that the elastic support portion is formed such that a dimension of the flat portion in a direction along the fold is larger than a dimension of the flat portion in an extending direction.
In the vibration generating device having this configuration, the elastic deformation portion is formed such that the dimension of the flat portion in the direction along the fold line is larger than the dimension of the flat portion in the extending direction, whereby the deformation of the elastic deformation portion in the third direction can be further suppressed, and the vibration operation of the vibrator can be further stabilized.
The vibration generating device according to claim 4 is characterized in that the elastic support portion includes:
a first spring constant relative to the first direction; and a second elastic coefficient with respect to the second direction, the second elastic coefficient being different from the first elastic coefficient, the magnetic driving unit driving the vibrator in the first direction at a first natural frequency corresponding to the first elastic coefficient and a mass of the vibrator, and driving the vibrator in the second direction at a second natural frequency corresponding to the second elastic coefficient and the mass of the vibrator.
In the vibration generating device having such a configuration, the magnetic driving unit drives the vibrator at the first natural frequency corresponding to the first elastic coefficient and the mass of the vibrator, whereby the vibrator can be easily vibrated in the first direction and can be hardly vibrated in the second direction. Further, the magnetic driving unit drives the vibrator at the second natural frequency corresponding to the second elastic coefficient and the mass of the vibrator, whereby the vibrator can be easily vibrated in the second direction and is less likely to vibrate in the first direction. As a result, the vibration operation of the vibrator can be stabilized, and a desired vibration operation of the vibrator along the first direction and the second direction can be realized.
The vibration generating device according to claim 5 is characterized in that the first magnetic field generating means is an electromagnet disposed on the side of the vibration body so as to generate the alternating magnetic field in the third direction, the second magnetic field generating means is a permanent magnet disposed on the side of the housing so as to face the electromagnet in the third direction, and the permanent magnet is magnetized so that different magnetic poles are arranged in the first direction and the second direction, respectively.

Further, even if a magnetic force acts between the permanent magnet and the electromagnet, deformation of the elastic deformation portion in the third direction is suppressed, and therefore, the vibration operation of the vibrating body can be stabilized. Therefore, such a vibration generating device is preferably used in a case where the vibrator is driven by the magnetic force between the electromagnet and the permanent magnet.

In the present embodiment, the left-right direction is the first direction in the present invention, the up-down direction is the second direction in the present invention, and the front-back direction is the third direction in the present invention.
First, the structure of a vibration generating device according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to fig. 1 to 6. The vibration generating device 1 according to the embodiment of the present invention is a vibration generating device mounted on an electronic apparatus such as a portable information terminal or a game machine. The vibration generated by the vibration generating device 1 is used, for example, for vibration for notifying reception in a portable information terminal, vibration for tactile feedback in a game machine, or the like. As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the vibration generating device 1 includes a case 10, a vibration body 20, a holding portion 30, two elastic support portions 40, and a magnetic driving portion 50.
As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the case 10 is configured by combining a main body portion 11 and a lid portion 12. The main body 11 is a substantially rectangular box-shaped member formed by processing a metal plate, and has a housing portion 11a which is a substantially rectangular recessed portion recessed downward from an upper end portion of the main body 11. The lid 12 is a substantially rectangular plate-shaped member formed by processing a metal plate, and is attached to the upper end of the main body 11 to cover the housing 11a from above.
As shown in fig. 3, the vibrator 20 is a substantially rectangular parallelepiped member housed in the housing portion 11a of the case 10. An electromagnet 60 that becomes a part of the magnetic drive unit 50 is disposed on the vibrator 20.
The holding portion 30 and the elastic support portion 40 are integrally formed by processing a metal plate having elasticity into a predetermined shape. As shown in fig. 4 and 5, the holding portion 30 is a substantially rectangular parallelepiped box-shaped portion. As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the lower portion of the vibrator 20 is housed and held in the holding portion 30.
As shown in fig. 4 and 5, the elastic support portion 40 is a plate spring formed by bending a metal plate extending in the left-right direction a plurality of times so that a fold line extends in the front-rear direction. One of the two elastic support portions 40 extends leftward from the left end of the holding portion 30, and the other extends rightward from the right end of the holding portion 30. Hereinafter, the elastic support portion 40 extending leftward from the left end of the holding portion 30 will be simply referred to as the left elastic support portion 40, and the elastic support portion 40 extending rightward from the right end of the holding portion 30 will be simply referred to as the right elastic support portion 40.
As shown in fig. 4 and 5, the elastic support portion 40 includes three bent portions 41, two flat portions 42, and an attachment portion 43. The bent portion 41 is a portion bent along the fold. The flat portion 42 is a substantially rectangular portion extending from one of the three folded portions 41 toward the other folded portion, and has a side along the direction of the fold and a side along the extending direction. The elastic support portion 40 is formed such that the dimension of the flat portion 42 in the direction of the fold line (hereinafter simply referred to as the width dimension of the flat portion 42) is larger than the dimension of the flat portion 42 in the direction of the extension (hereinafter simply referred to as the length dimension of the flat portion 42). Further, a substantially rectangular opening 42a is formed in the flat portion 42 at a position avoiding the outer peripheral portion.
The leaf spring having a bent structure such as the elastic support portion 40 has a characteristic that it is easily elastically deformed in a direction (a left-right direction and a vertical direction) orthogonal to the fold line. That is, the leaf spring can be elastically deformed in the left-right direction by expansion and contraction, and can be elastically deformed in the up-down direction by deflection. On the other hand, such a leaf spring also has a characteristic that it is difficult to deform in the direction along the fold (the front-rear direction), and therefore is preferable as a member for suppressing the movement in the front-rear direction.
In addition, in the plate spring having such a bent structure, elastic deformation in the left-right direction by expansion and contraction is generally easier than elastic deformation in the up-down direction by bending. Therefore, when the elastic modulus of the elastic support portion 40 with respect to the left-right direction is set to a first elastic modulus and the elastic modulus of the elastic support portion 40 with respect to the up-down direction is set to a second elastic modulus, the first elastic modulus and the second elastic modulus are different values.
The mounting portion 43 is formed at the front end portion of the elastic support portion 40. An engaging claw portion 43a is formed at a predetermined position of the mounting portion 43. The engagement claw portions 43a are engaged with the body portion 11 of the housing 10, whereby the elastic support portion 40 is attached to the housing 10. The elastic support portion 40 elastically deforms in the left-right direction and the up-down direction, thereby supporting the vibrator 20 to be capable of vibrating in the left-right direction and the up-down direction.
The vibrator 20 is supported by the elastic support portion 40, and vibrates in the left-right direction at a first natural frequency determined in accordance with the first elastic coefficient and the mass of the vibrator 20, and also vibrates in the up-down direction at a second natural frequency determined in accordance with the second elastic coefficient and the mass of the vibrator 20. Further, since the first elastic modulus and the second elastic modulus have different values, the first natural frequency and the second natural frequency also have different values.
As shown in fig. 2, the magnetic drive unit 50 includes an electromagnet 60 (first magnetic field generating means) disposed on the vibrator 20 side and two permanent magnets 70 (second magnetic field generating means) disposed on the case 10 side. As shown in fig. 3, electromagnet 60 includes a core 61, a bobbin 62, a coil 63, and a terminal 64. The core 61 is a square columnar member made of a ferromagnetic material, and extends in the front-rear direction. The bobbin 62 is a cylindrical member made of an insulator, and covers the outer periphery of the core 61. The coil 63 is formed by winding wiring around the outer periphery of the bobbin 62. The terminals 64 connect both ends of the coil 63 to an external circuit not shown through a wiring member not shown.
The electromagnet 60 generates a magnetic field in the front-rear direction by flowing an alternating current through the coil 63, and magnetizes the front end portion and the rear end portion of the core 61 to different magnetic poles. Then, by changing the current flowing through the coil 63 to an alternating current, the magnetic field generated by the electromagnet 60 becomes an alternating magnetic field whose direction changes in accordance with the change in the direction of the current. The rear end portion is an N-pole when the front end portion of the core 61 is an S-pole, and the rear end portion is an S-pole when the front end portion of the core 61 is an N-pole. The timing at which the electromagnet 60 generates the alternating magnetic field and the frequency of the alternating magnetic field are controlled by the external circuit described above.
As shown in fig. 2 and 6, the permanent magnet 70 is a substantially rectangular parallelepiped plate-shaped magnet. The two permanent magnets 70 are disposed on the front end side and the rear end side of the housing 10 so as to be positioned on the extension line of the core 61 of the electromagnet 60 of the vibrator 20 in the front-rear direction (hereinafter, simply referred to as the extension line of the vibrator 20 in the front-rear direction). As shown in fig. 6, permanent magnet 70 has a substantially rectangular magnetized surface 71 having sides extending in the horizontal direction and the vertical direction. Magnetized surface 71 of permanent magnet 70 faces front and rear of core 61 of electromagnet 60.
Permanent magnet 70 is provided with a slit 72 extending in an oblique direction from the upper left to the lower right of magnetized surface 71. The magnetized surface 71 is divided into two magnetized regions 73 by the slit 72, and the two magnetized regions 73 are magnetized to have different magnetic poles. In this way, permanent magnet 70 is magnetized so that different magnetic poles are arranged in the left-right direction and the up-down direction, respectively.
Hereinafter, the permanent magnet 70 disposed on the front end portion side of the housing 10 is simply referred to as the front permanent magnet 70, and the permanent magnet 70 disposed on the rear end portion side of the housing 10 is simply referred to as the rear permanent magnet 70. Of the two magnetized regions 73, the lower left region is defined as a first magnetized region 73a, and the upper right region is defined as a second magnetized region 73 b. The front permanent magnet 70 is magnetized such that the first magnetized region 73a is an S pole and the second magnetized region 73b is an N pole, and the rear permanent magnet 70 is magnetized such that the first magnetized region 73a is an N pole and the second magnetized region 73b is an S pole.
Further, a yoke 74 as a member made of a ferromagnetic material for directing the magnetic field generated by permanent magnet 70 toward electromagnet 60 is attached to permanent magnet 70. The vibration generating device 1 has such a configuration.
Next, the operation of the vibration generating device 1 will be described with reference to fig. 7 and 8. As described above, the magnetic drive unit 50 includes the electromagnet 60 disposed on the vibrator 20 side and the two permanent magnets 70 disposed on the case 10 side. The electromagnet 60 generates an alternating magnetic field by flowing an alternating current through the coil 63, and magnetizes the front end portion and the rear end portion of the core 61. Permanent magnet 70 is disposed on the side of case 10 so as to face electromagnet 60 in the front-rear direction. First magnetized area 73a and second magnetized area 73b magnetized to different magnetic poles are formed on magnetized surface 71 of permanent magnet 70.
As shown in fig. 7 (a), when the tip portion of the core 61 is magnetized to the N-pole, the tip portion of the core 61 and the first magnetized region 73a of the front permanent magnet 70 attract each other, and repel each other from the second magnetized region 73 b. Although not shown, when the front end portion of core 61 is magnetized to the N pole, the rear end portion of core 61 is magnetized to the S pole, and the rear end portion of core 61 and first magnetized region 73a of rear permanent magnet 70 attract each other and repel each other with second magnetized region 73 b. As a result, the magnetic force acts on the vibrator 20 leftward and downward.
As shown in fig. 7 (b), when the tip portion of the core 61 is magnetized to the S-pole, the tip portion of the core 61 and the first magnetized region 73a of the front permanent magnet 70 repel each other, and attract each other with the second magnetized region 73 b. Although not shown, when the front end portion of core 61 is magnetized to the S pole, the rear end portion of core 61 is magnetized to the N pole, and the rear end portion of core 61 and first magnetized region 73a of rear permanent magnet 70 repel each other and attract each other and second magnetized region 73 b. As a result, the magnetic force acts on the right and upper sides of the vibrator 20.
In magnetic drive unit 50, each time the direction of the magnetic field generated by electromagnet 60 is reversed in this manner, the leading end portion and the trailing end portion of core 61 of electromagnet 60 attract or repel each other with first magnetized region 73a of permanent magnet 70, and repel or attract each other with second magnetized region 73 b. The magnetic driving unit 50 drives the vibrator 20 in the left-right direction and the up-down direction by the magnetic force between the electromagnet 60 and the permanent magnet 70.
On the other hand, as described above, the vibrator 20 is supported by the elastic support portion 40 so as to be capable of vibrating in the left-right direction and the up-down direction. The vibrator 20 vibrates in the left-right direction at a first natural frequency determined in accordance with the first elastic coefficient and the mass of the vibrator 20, and also vibrates in the up-down direction at a second natural frequency determined in accordance with the second elastic coefficient and the mass of the vibrator 20.
Therefore, as shown in fig. 8 (a), when the electromagnet 60 generates an alternating magnetic field having the same frequency as the first natural frequency, the vibrating body 20 is likely to vibrate in the left-right direction and is less likely to vibrate in the vertical direction. As a result, the vibrator 20 vibrates in the left-right direction. As shown in fig. 8 (b), when the electromagnet 60 generates an alternating magnetic field having the same frequency as the second natural frequency, the vibrating body 20 is likely to vibrate in the vertical direction and is less likely to vibrate in the left-right direction. As a result, the vibrator 20 vibrates in the vertical direction.
The magnetic driving unit 50 vibrates the vibrator 20 in the left-right direction by the alternating magnetic field having the same frequency as the first natural frequency and vibrates the vibrator 20 in the up-down direction by the alternating magnetic field having the same frequency as the second natural frequency, using the relationship between the frequency of the alternating magnetic field and the vibration easiness of the vibrator 20. Hereinafter, the case where the vibrator 20 is vibrated in the left-right direction by the alternating magnetic field having the same frequency as the first natural frequency will be simply referred to as driving the vibrator 20 in the left-right direction at the first natural frequency, and the case where the vibrator 20 is vibrated in the up-down direction by the alternating magnetic field having the same frequency as the second natural frequency will be simply referred to as driving the vibrator 20 in the up-down direction at the second natural frequency.
Next, a method of stabilizing the vibration operation of the vibrator 20 will be described. As described above, the leaf spring having a bent structure such as the elastic support portion 40 has a characteristic that it is easily elastically deformed in a direction orthogonal to the fold line and is hardly deformed in a direction along the fold line. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the characteristic of the leaf spring having such a bent structure is utilized to suppress deformation of the elastic support portion 40 in the front-rear direction. In addition, the movement of the vibrator 20 in the front-rear direction is suppressed, and the vibration operation of the vibrator 20 in the left-right direction and the up-down direction is stabilized.
In the leaf spring having such a bent structure, the larger the width of the flat portion 42 is than the length of the flat portion 42, the more difficult the leaf spring is to deform in the direction along the fold. In the present embodiment, by utilizing the characteristic of the leaf spring having such a bent structure, the elastic support portion 40 is formed such that the width dimension of the flat portion 42 is larger than the length dimension of the flat portion 42, and thus deformation of the elastic support portion 40 in the front-rear direction is easily suppressed.
In the leaf spring having such a folded structure, the outer peripheral portion of the flat portion 42 has a large influence on the degree of difficulty of deformation of the elastic support portion 40 in the direction along the fold line, and the influence of the portion of the flat portion 42 that avoids the outer peripheral portion (the portion closer to the central portion) is smaller than the influence of the outer peripheral portion of the flat portion 42. On the other hand, by forming the opening 42a in the portion avoiding the outer peripheral portion of the flat portion 42, the mechanical strength of the flat portion 42 with respect to the direction (the left-right direction and the up-down direction) orthogonal to the fold line is reduced, and the elastic support portion 40 can be easily elastically deformed in the direction orthogonal to the fold line.
In the present embodiment, by utilizing the characteristics of the leaf spring having such a bent structure, the opening 42a is formed at a position of the flat portion 42 that is away from the outer peripheral portion, thereby suppressing the elastic support portion 40 from being easily deformed in the front-rear direction, and allowing the elastic support portion 40 to be easily elastically deformed in the left-right direction and the up-down direction. Further, by adjusting the size of the opening 42a, the degree of difficulty of elastic deformation of the elastic support portion 40 in the left-right direction and the up-down direction can be adjusted.
Next, the effects of the present embodiment will be described. In the vibration generating device 1 of the present embodiment, the elastic support portion 40 of the elastic support portion 40 is a plate spring in which a plurality of bent portions 41 and two substantially rectangular flat portions 42 are formed, the plurality of bent portions 41 are bent so that a fold line extends in the front-rear direction (third direction) orthogonal to the left-right direction (first direction) and the up-down direction (second direction), and the two flat portions 42 extend from one of the plurality of bent portions 41 toward the other. The leaf spring having such a bent structure is characterized in that it is easily elastically deformed in a direction orthogonal to the fold line and is hardly deformed in a direction along the fold line. Therefore, the elastic support portion 40 can be easily elastically deformed in the left-right direction and the up-down direction, and deformation of the elastic support portion 40 in the front-back direction can be suppressed. As a result, even when a force in the front-rear direction is applied to the vibrator 20 by the magnetic force between the electromagnet 60 (first magnetic field generating means) and the permanent magnet 70 (second magnetic field generating means), the movement of the vibrator 20 in the front-rear direction can be suppressed, and the vibration operation of the vibrator 20 in the left-right direction and the up-down direction can be stabilized.
In the vibration generating device 1 of the present embodiment, the opening 42a is formed in the flat portion 42 at a position avoiding the outer peripheral portion, so that the elastic support portion 40 is prevented from being easily deformed in the front-rear direction, and the elastic support portion 40 is easily elastically deformed in the left-right direction and the up-down direction. Further, by adjusting the size of the opening 42a, the degree of difficulty of elastic deformation of the elastic support portion 40 in the left-right direction and the up-down direction can be adjusted. As a result, the vibration operation of the vibrator 20 can be stabilized, the vibrator 20 can be easily vibrated in the left-right direction and the up-down direction, and the degree of difficulty of the vibration of the vibrator 20 can be adjusted.
In the vibration generating device 1 of the present embodiment, the elastic support portion 40 is formed such that the width dimension (dimension along the direction of the fold line) of the flat portion 42 is larger than the length dimension (dimension along the extending direction) of the flat portion 42, whereby the deformation of the elastic support portion 40 in the front-rear direction can be further suppressed, and the vibration operation of the vibrator 20 can be further stabilized.
In the vibration generating device 1 of the present embodiment, the magnetic driving unit 50 drives the vibrator 20 at the first natural frequency corresponding to the first elastic modulus and the mass of the vibrator 20, thereby making it possible to make the vibrator 20 easily vibrate in the left-right direction and hardly vibrate in the vertical direction. In addition, the magnetic driving unit 50 drives the vibrator 20 at the second natural frequency corresponding to the second elastic modulus and the mass of the vibrator 20, so that the vibrator 20 can be easily vibrated in the vertical direction and is less likely to vibrate in the lateral direction. As a result, the vibration operation of the vibrator 20 is stabilized, and a desired vibration operation of the vibrator 20 in the left-right direction and the up-down direction can be realized.
In the vibration generating device 1 of the present embodiment, the alternating magnetic field generated by the electromagnet 60 can cause the core 61 on the electromagnet 60 side and the first magnetized region 73a, which is one magnetic pole on the permanent magnet 70 side, to attract or repel each other, and can cause the core 61 on the permanent magnet 70 side and the second magnetized region 73b, which is the other magnetic pole on the permanent magnet 70 side, to repel or attract each other. By utilizing the magnetic force between the electromagnet 60 and the permanent magnet 70, the vibrator 20 can be easily vibrated in the left-right direction and the up-down direction. Even if a magnetic force acts between permanent magnet 70 and electromagnet 60, deformation of elastic support portion 40 in the front-rear direction is suppressed, and therefore the vibration operation of vibrator 20 can be stabilized. Therefore, the vibration generating device 1 is preferably used in a case where the vibrator 20 is driven by the magnetic force between the electromagnet 60 and the permanent magnet 70.
The embodiments of the present invention have been described above, but the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and can be modified as appropriate without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
For example, in the embodiment of the present invention, the configuration of the vibration generating device 1 may be appropriately changed as long as a predetermined function can be realized. For example, the two elastic support portions 40 may be directly attached to the vibrator 20. In this case, the holding portion 30 is not required. The vibration generating apparatus 1 may further include other members than those described above.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the materials and shapes of the housing 10, the holding portion 30, and the elastic support portion 40 may be appropriately changed as long as the predetermined function is realized. For example, the number of times of bending the plate spring as the elastic support portion 40 may be other than the above. The shape of the flat portion 42 and the shape of the opening 42a may be other than those described above. Alternatively, the elastic support portion 40 may be formed using a member different from the holding portion 30, and then the elastic support portion 40 may be combined with the holding portion 30.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the configuration of the magnetic driving unit 50 may be appropriately modified as long as a predetermined function can be achieved. For example, the permanent magnet 70 may be disposed on either the front end side or the rear end side of the housing 10. The slit 72 may have a shape other than the above-described shape as long as different magnetic poles are arranged in the left-right direction and the up-down direction. Further, a plurality of permanent magnets magnetized to have different magnetic poles may be arranged in the case 10 in the horizontal direction and the vertical direction.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the magnetic drive unit 50 may electrically drive the vibrator 20 at a vibration frequency other than the first natural vibration frequency and the second natural vibration frequency as long as the predetermined function is achieved. For example, the magnetic driving unit 50 may drive the vibrator 20 not only in the left-right direction at the first natural frequency but also in the up-down direction at the second natural frequency, and may drive the vibrator 20 in the oblique direction at a vibration frequency intermediate between the first natural frequency and the second natural frequency.
