However, in any of the above-mentioned conventional methods, since the projections of every other electrode plate are welded to each other, the projections of every other electrode plate are arranged at the same position. It is necessary to stack while aligning. Therefore, there is a problem that a jig for alignment is required and a work for alignment is required.
Further, since it is desirable that the material of the electrode plate is an iron-based material from the viewpoint of ease of welding, there is a restriction on using a copper-based material having good electric conductivity. In addition, since the thickness of the electrode plate and the projections themselves is generally as thin as about 50 μm or less, it is difficult to set good spot welding conditions. Therefore, defective connection of the projections due to defective spot welding is likely to occur. Further, in spot welding, since it is necessary to perform a welding operation for each connection point, it cannot be said that productivity is good. On the other hand, in the case of laser welding, it is considered that the condition control is easier than that of spot welding, but in this case as well, it is necessary to perform welding at each welding point, so it cannot be said that productivity is good.

First, each of the piezoelectric plates 13a to 13n may have any shape, thickness and material according to the design of the piezoelectric element. The method for manufacturing the piezoelectric plate is also not particularly limited.
In this example, a calcined powder of a piezoelectric material containing PZT (lead zirconate titanate) as a main component is dispersed in an organic solvent to prepare a slurry. Next, the slurry is applied onto the film with a doctor blade device to a thickness of 1.1 mm, for example, and then dried. The dried material is peeled from the film to obtain a green sheet of piezoelectric material. This green sheet has a predetermined shape, such as a diameter of 27
Cut out a large number of mm disks. As a result, a large number of disks of uniform size made of piezoelectric material are obtained. A predetermined number of these discs are stacked. However, these discs are stacked while inserting a release material such as zirconia powder between the discs. Then 50
Remove the binder in the disc at 0 ° C. Next, 1250 ° C
Bake at the temperature of 4 hours. One disc after firing 1
Flat polishing and uniform outer diameter polishing were performed to finally obtain a disk having a diameter of 17 mm and a thickness of 0.5 mm. Ag (silver) paste is applied to the front and back planes of this disk and then baked to form electrodes of about 0.005 mm thickness on each of the disk front and back. A high voltage is applied to this disk in insulating oil to polarize it. In this way, the piezoelectric plates 13a to 13n are obtained.

At least the same number as the number of piezoelectric plates to be laminated and linearly continuous. Here, the predetermined length of the connecting portion 11b having a predetermined length means at least the piezoelectric plate 2 here.
The size is the same as or slightly longer than the size obtained by adding the thickness of one sheet, the thickness of one electrode part, and the bending allowance required when the connecting part is bent. Such a connecting conductive plate 11 can be easily formed by, for example, a photolithography technique and an etching technique. Further, the material of the connecting conductive plate can be any suitable one. In particular, since the present invention does not require welding, there is no restriction of selecting a material in consideration of ease of welding. For example, a connection conductive plate made of a material considering important parameters as an electrode plate such as electric conductivity. 11
Can be configured. For example, it is preferable that the connecting conductive plate 11 is made of copper or a copper alloy. The thickness of the connecting conductive plate 11 can be set according to the design of the laminated piezoelectric element. When the overall thickness of the laminated piezoelectric element is reduced to reduce the size, it is preferable to reduce the thickness of the electrode plate itself.

After that, the above-described steps 1 to 3 are repeated in order to alternately stack the remaining electrode portions and piezoelectric plates. The laminated piezoelectric element obtained as a result of this series of operations is as shown in FIG. That is, the electrode parts of the first connecting conductive plate constitute odd-numbered electrode plates of the laminated piezoelectric element,
Further, the electrode portions of the second connection conductive plate constitute the even-numbered electrode plates of the laminated piezoelectric element, and the odd-numbered electrode portions and the even-numbered electrode portions are connected to each other by the connection portions 11b.

1-2. Description of Second Embodiment of First Method In the above-described first embodiment, bending of the connecting portion of the connecting conductive plate and stacking of the piezoelectric plates are performed while weaving them in a predetermined order. . However, the connecting conductive plate may be bent in advance. This second embodiment is such an example. However, when the first and second connecting conductive plates are linear as in the first embodiment when the second embodiment is carried out, the connecting conductive plates which are bent in advance are predetermined. Can't stack on the street. This is because when the first and second connection conductors that have been bent are attempted to overlap with each other, the bent portions of both will collide. Therefore, the connecting conductive plate is, for example, in the shape of a series of S-shapes as shown in the plan view of FIG. This Figure 3
The structure obtained by bending the connecting conductive plate 21 shown in FIG. 3A in advance is as shown in FIG. That is, the connecting portion 1 is moved toward the other upper and lower electrode portions from two positions that are offset by 90 degrees in the electrode portion 11a.
A structure in which 1b is bent is obtained. This Figure 3
With the structure shown in (B), another structure similar to this structure can be superposed on this structure while maintaining the insertion gap of the piezoelectric body. After that, the piezoelectric plates are sequentially inserted into this insertion gap. The method of the second embodiment can be applied to the case of manufacturing a laminated piezoelectric element in which it is advantageous to bend the connecting conductor in advance.
