Abstract

578,791. Piezo - electric crystals. WESTERN ELECTRIC CO., Inc. June 13, 1944, No. 11331. Convention date, March 4, 1943. [Class 40 (v)] A crystal device comprises a pair of + 5‹ X cut quartz plates bonded together in major face to face relation and adapted to vibrate in flexure, the length and thickness of the plates being in accordance with the flexural mode frequency of the device, and the plates being supported and electrical connections being made to electrodes on the outside major faces of the plates substantially at the nodes of motion thereof so that a thickness direction electric field is applied to the plates. Figs. 1 and 2 show a compound element 1 adapted for bending movement comprising two plates 2, 3 cut from either a right-handed or left-handed quartz with its major faces perpendicular to the X-axis and its length dimension rotated 5‹ relative to the Y-axis. The plates are coated with silver and bonded together with silver solder, and electrode coatings 4 and 5 are applied to the outer faces, to which are soldered spring wire leads 7 which also serve for supporting the element. No leads are connected to the bonding material 10. The crystal bends about nodal lines 6 which are perpendicular to the length dimension and about .224 of the length from each end. The leads 7 are attached on the nodal lines. With the above orientation, and with the ratio of width to length in the range .2 to .35, the element has a very low temperature coefficient of frequency. If the two plates are cut one from a left-handed crystal and one from a right-handed crystal, the nodal lines make an angle of 11 degrees with the perpendicular to the length dimension. Fig. 6 shows.an arrangement in which a lead 8 is connected to the bonding 10, and leads 7 connected to the outer face electrodes are connected together to form the second lead 9. With this electrode arrangement, the oblique nodal line occurs when the plates are cut from the same handed quartz. If desired, either or both electrodes may be divided longitudinally to provide a pair of coupled elements. The elements may be mounted in an envelope which is evacuated or filled with an inert gas, and the envelope may be placed in a container filled with lambs' wool. Specification 544,834 and U.S.A. Specifications 1,860,529, 2,259,317 and 2,275,122 are referred to.
