Definitions
- the present invention relates generally to the field of rotary piezoelectric motors, and more specifically it relates to improvements made to rotary piezoelectric motors, comprising: an annular toothed stator, - a fixed support for supporting the stator, an annular rotor in support on the stator under a prestressing force, thrust means adapted to axially support the rotor on the stator with prestressing, and - piezoelectric excitation means of the stator able to excite it and cause the rotary displacement of the rotor.
- a rotary piezoelectric motor also called a traveling wave rotary motor
- the rotor drive is due to the friction of the stator teeth on the contact surface of the rotor.
- the quality of the contact between stator and rotor is decisive for the regularity of rotor displacement and the maximum torque of the motor.
- FIG. 1 of the accompanying drawings there is shown very schematically a simplified structure of a rotary piezoelectric motor limited to the main bodies concerned by the invention.
- the rotor 1 is in the general form of a wheel having an annular contact pad 2 joined by a web 3 to a central hub 4.
- the stator 5 is in the general form of a fixed annular structure comprising an annular stator ring 6 which has a toothed surface 9 on which the contact pad 2 bears and which is supported cantilevered towards the outside on an annular base 7 via a stator rim 8 of substantially radial extent; ways piezoelectric 10 are fixed under the stator ring 6 opposite the toothed surface 9.
- the prestressing of the motor is obtained by exerting an axial force on the rotor 1.
- the bearing force is applied axially on the axis 11 of the rotor provided for this purpose with a flange 12 forming an axial stop.
- the drive of the rotor is by friction of the teeth of the stator 5 on the contact surface of the rotor 1.
- the rotor is pressed against the stator so as to have an appropriate contact force of the order of 200 N for a 60 mm diameter motor.
- FIG. 2 shows a distribution model of the piezoelectric elements under the stator ring 6 according to the prior art, the piezoelectric means 10 then being in the form of a piezoelectric ring with two excitation sectors, commonly called
- Excitation electrodes means a sector A corresponding to a sinusoidal excitation mode and a sector B corresponding to a cosine excitation mode, that is to say that the piezoelectric sector A is excited under a control voltage of the ksin ⁇ t type and that the piezoelectric sector B is excited under a voltage of the kcos ⁇ t type, k being a constant, t the time and ⁇ the period.
- the two control voltages are therefore shifted by ⁇ / 2 relative to each other.

- the excitation sectors A, B each allow the generation of a standing wave with the same wavelength ⁇ .
- the two piezoelectric sectors A, B are separated from a sector S, not excited by a control voltage, of a peripheral length corresponding to a quarter wavelength ⁇ / 4 and are excited with control voltages offset by ⁇ / 2 relative to each other.
- the two stationary waves generated by the excitation sectors A, B on the piezoelectric ring 10 are shifted from one another by a quarter wavelength ( ⁇ / 4).
- the superposition of the two standing waves results in the formation of a progressive wave of a wavelength ⁇ moving along the piezoelectric ring 10, and consequently, also causes the deformation of the stator ring 6 on which is fixed the piezoelectric ring 10 with the formation of a progressive wave moving on the stator ring 6.
- the formation of a progressive wave allows the creation of small elliptic movements at the toothed surface 9 of the stator ring 6 which frictionally drives the rotation of the rotor 1 in a direction of movement opposite to the direction of movement of the wave progressive.
- the present invention applies more particularly to the rotary piezoelectric motor as described in the patent application FR 0600170 filed on January 6, 2006 by the Applicant.
- the excitation for the generation of this standing wave occurs only partially on an area of the stator ring, usually ⁇ eme 4/9 of the circumference of the crown.
- the wavelength response of the stator is not constant over the entire circumference of the stator and is more pronounced at the excitation sector level relative to the non-excited sector.
- US 5 172 023 discloses a piezoelectric motor comprising a stator with a toothed stator ring, a fixed base for supporting the stator ring; a rotor having an annular rotor pad bearing on the stator ring under a prestressing force; thrust means adapted to axially support the rotor pad on the stator ring with prestressing, piezoelectric excitation means of the stator ring adapted to excite it and to cause the rotary displacement of the rotor, the piezoelectric excitation means of the stator ring are in the form of a pair of piezoelectric rings of the same diameter placed on either side of the stator ring, each ring being supplied with a control voltage so as to generate a stationary wave, of length wavelength ⁇ , one of which is in phase quadrature relative to the other and resulting in the formation of a progressive wave moving on the stator ring, the excitation sectors of each of the piezoelectric rings being, in vis-à-vis, offset by
