FIG. 1 is an embodiment of the vertical crystal unit of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a simplified plan view for explaining the principle of the vertical crystal unit of FIG. In FIG. 2, the vibrator 1 includes a vibrating portion 2 and a supporting portion 3, and the supporting portion 3 can be considered to be fixed under the boundary condition of supporting both ends. The vibrating portion 2 is represented by a length L 1 , a width W 1 , and a thickness T, and the supporting portion 3 has a length L 2 ,
In terms of the width W 2 , when the vibrating portion 2 of the vibrator 1 is displaced by extension as indicated by an arrow A, the bending portion of the supporting portion 3 is
Naturally, a bending mode is generated inward as indicated by arrow B. Here, a portion where the bending mode occurs is indicated by a bent portion 5. On the contrary, when the vibrating portion 2 contracts, the bending portion 5 of the supporting portion 3 generates a bending mode to the outside. That is, in the present invention, the displacement of the vibration section 2 in the width direction is converted into the bending mode of the support section 3 so that the degree of freedom of the vibration is not suppressed. And, in reality, there is a dimension that does not suppress vibration. This shape size is determined by the strain energy of the vibrating portion 2. That is, the strain energy of the vibration part 2
If U 1 and the strain energy of the bent portion are U 2 , then U 1 and U 2 are expressed by the following equations.

U 1 > U 2 (3) From this, the dimensions L 2 and W 2 of the bent portion 5 are determined. For example, the dimension of the vibrating portion at the frequency of 1 MHz of the present invention is the length L 1
= 2.6 mm, W 1 = 80 μm, T = 160 μm, the dimensional ratio W 2 / L 2 of the bent portion of the supporting portion may be 0.16 or less. By determining the dimensions in this way, the loss resistance is small, and
A vertical crystal unit having a high Q value can be obtained. Next, vibration leakage will be described. As can be seen from the simplified diagram of FIG. 2, the vibration energy of the vibrating part 2 is equal to that of the supporting part 3.
It is transmitted to the first bridge portion 4 through. Therefore, it suffices to reduce the energy loss in the support portion 3, and the mode of the support portion 3 is converted to the bending mode. Therefore, if the mass of the support portions at both ends is substantially infinitely large, the bending of the support portion 3 is performed. The energy of the part 5 does not leak to the mount part 8. In other words, according to the present invention, the shape of the supporting portion 3 transmitted from the vibrating portion 2 is converted into the bending mode, that is, the width W 2 and the length.
By selecting the ratio W 2 / L 2 of L 2, by freeing the vibration of the vibration portion, and, to increase the mass of the support portion having both ends supported boundary conditions for connecting with the bending mode portion infinitely That is, the object of the present invention is achieved.
