Specific embodiment
In the present invention, according to when using environment and condition may exist multiple suitable embodiments, but illustrate an appropriate number of embodiment herein.
(embodiment 1)
In the following, preferred forms for carrying out the present invention are described in detail according to embodiment.Fig. 1 is the figure for indicating the essential structure of piezoelectric speaker of the invention, Figure 1A is the top view of embodiment 1, Figure 1B is its perspective view, Fig. 1 C is the perspective view for indicating the back side of conductive path, Fig. 1 D is the top view for indicating the variation of embodiment 1, and Fig. 1 E is the top view for indicating another variation of embodiment 1.
As shown in Figure 1, piezoelectric speaker 10 of the invention, the sticking piezoelectric element 14 on metal oscillating plate 12, the piezoelectric element 14 have electrode layer 16 at least one interarea of piezoelectrics.Above-mentioned piezoelectric speaker 10 can be single piezoelectric patches (unimorph) type that above-mentioned piezoelectric element 14 is provided on any one interarea of oscillating plate 12, be also possible to be provided with bimorph (bimorph) type of above-mentioned piezoelectric element 14 on the two sides of oscillating plate 12.In order to make the integral thickness of piezoelectric speaker 10 be less than or equal to 1mm, for example, the thickness of above-mentioned oscillating plate 12 is made to be less than or equal to 0.1mm.In addition, piezoelectric element 14 is using the lit-par-lit structure for the piezoelectric layer for being alternately laminated at least 3 layers with electrode layer, and total thickness is no more than 0.1mm in order to obtain enough driving forces.
The material of the electrode layer 16 of interlayer and surface back side as above-mentioned piezoelectric element 14, such as alloy or silver using silver/palladium=9/1~10/0 ratio (molar ratio) that can be fired simultaneously with piezoelectrics.Electrode layer 16 is to be added in solvent appropriate and form slurry alloy (or silver) and piezoelectrics powder together with binder, then formed on the raw cook (green sheet) of piezoelectrics with such as silk screen print method.It is pasted on the electrode layer 16 on the surface of such piezoelectric element 14 and is overleaf provided with layer of adhesive material 22, belt metal foil of the thickness less than or equal to 0.1mm.The conductive path 20 for making above-mentioned electrode layer 16 be attached or make the electrode layer 16 and external circuit to be attached each other is formed by the metal foil.In the present embodiment, above-mentioned layer of adhesive material 22 is electric conductivity.For this purpose, needing suitably to take and pasting the disposition for insulation such as insulating properties band 23 (C referring to Fig.1) on the part that layer of adhesive material 22 is contacted with oscillating plate 12 with 12 short circuit of oscillating plate in order to prevent.In the present embodiment, using the layer of adhesive material of electric conductivity 22, but dielectric adhesives also can be used.At this point, not needing above-mentioned insulating properties band 23.
Then, from the top of conductive path 20, on the conductive path 20 and the surface of above-mentioned electrode layer 16 applies the electrocondution slurry that rigidity is low, volume resistivity is high, forms conductive layer.The coating shape of electrocondution slurry preferably, can be respectively formed at the two sides of above-mentioned conductive path 20, or be formed as traversing above-mentioned conductive path 20 to connect at multiple positions with above-mentioned electrode layer 16 along the edge part of above-mentioned conductive path 20.For example, piezoelectric speaker 10 that can be as shown in Figure 1A like that, forms 2 circular conductive layers 24, or conductive layer 26 as shown in figure iD is such, is formed as rectangle.When piezoelectric speaker 10 as referring to figure 1E is such, when the position of conductive path 20 is located at by the position at the edge of piezoelectric element 14, although the two sides of conductive path 20 cannot be coated to as the example of above-mentioned Figure 1A or (D), but at this point it is possible to be handled by unilateral side and such 2 positions in front end that circular conductive layer 28 is coated to conductive path 20.
As above-mentioned conductive layer 24,26,28, the conductive paste that rigidity is low, volume resistivity is high is utilized.Specifically, preferably meeting, Young's modulus is less than or equal to 100MPa and volume resistivity is less than or equal to 6 × 10-3The physical property of Ω cm.When Young's modulus is greater than or equal to above-mentioned value, stress when oscillating plate 12 deforms cannot be born and destroyed, or generate the resistance of displacement as oscillating plate 12, therefore lead to tonequality deterioration.For example, table 1 below is an example for indicating the Young's modulus of the electrocondution slurry utilized as conductive layer and having the relationship destroyed caused by the driving for piezoelectric speaker 10 of having no way of.Slurry therewith A is polyester resin, and slurry therewith B is silicon resinoid, and slurry therewith C is epoxylite, and slurry therewith D is polyimide based resin, and any slurry therewith all includes silver as conductive filler.
[table 1]

    A     60        1×10-3 Silver Polyesters Nothing
    B     600        1×10-6 Silver Silicon class Have
    C     1000        1×10-3 Silver Epoxies Have
    D     1400        1×10-5 Silver Polyimide Have
As known from Table 1, using slurry B~D, although meeting volume resistivity less than or equal to 6 × 10-3The condition of Ω cm, but since rigidity is excessively high, so driving causes to destroy.
In addition, showing sound pressure variations in the case where being formed the conductive layer 26 of shape shown in Fig. 1 D as electrocondution slurry and changed the Young's modulus of electrocondution slurry in table 2 below.

    500      -0.43
    1000      -0.61
    2000      -0.93
    5000      -1.49
As can be known from the results of Table 2, in order to which acoustic pressure deterioration to be limited within such as 0.1dB, the upper limit of the Young's modulus of electrocondution slurry is 100MPa.It follows that destroying caused by driving in order to prevent, make the deterioration minimum limit of sound quality, the Young's modulus of electrocondution slurry is preferably made to be less than or equal to 100MPa.
In addition, being greater than or equal to 6 × 10 in volume resistivity-3When Ω cm, contact resistance cannot be made sufficiently small.The coating shape of electrocondution slurry can be the arbitrary shapes such as circle, rectangle as long as connecting as described above at multiple positions with above-mentioned electrode layer 16 along the edge part of above-mentioned conductive path 20.But the part both of which for making the part being overlapped with conductive path 20 and being overlapped with electrode layer 16 is greater than or equal to 0.8mm2.For area less than that, the resistance value of electrocondution slurry part ( conductive layer 24,26,28) is not low enough, cannot obtain stable contact condition.In addition, the acoustic pressure in the case that table 3 below shows the electrocondution slurry using Young's modulus 60MPa and changes the surface covered of the electrocondution slurry on electrode layer 16 ( conductive layer 24,26,28) deteriorates.As shown in table 3, it is greater than 20mm in area2In the case where, acoustic pressure is deteriorated more than 0.1dB, therefore, it is preferable to which the surface covered on electrode layer 16 is less than or equal to 20mm2.Influence of the surface covered of such electrocondution slurry to sound matter becomes significant in the case where the diameter of above-mentioned oscillating plate 12 is the more small-sized piezoelectric speaker of 10~50mm or so.This is because the rigidity of oscillating plate 12 increases, so being not easily susceptible to the influence of electrocondution slurry in the case where more small-sized piezoelectric speaker.

As the coating method of above-mentioned electrocondution slurry, such as various methods well known to usable print process, spray coating method etc..In addition, being greater than the thickness of conductive layer 24 (or 26,28) or being equal to 0.01mm (10 μm).If thickness is smaller, resistance value is excessively high, cannot form stable contact condition.By hardening electrocondution slurry with scheduled methods such as ultraviolet light irradiation or heating after coating, the stable piezoelectric speaker 10 of contact condition can get.
