Description of the Related Art Many computers such as personal computers use magneto-optical disk devices, disk devices called hard disk devices, etc., which have a higher recording density and a larger storage capacity than floppy disks, but are vulnerable to shocks. There are drawbacks such as. For this reason,
In order to read and write, when there is a shock, it is essential to stop reading and writing. An acceleration sensor mounted on the apparatus itself is used as an impact sensor that detects this impact and particularly issues a write stop command.

低減等といった解決すべき課題が多々あった。The above-mentioned conventional acceleration sensor has a drawback that it is too large to be used for a vibrating body such as a hard disk as an object to be mounted. As a result, the shock of the vibrating body itself is not detected, and the vibration sensor is used as a shock sensor including an acceleration sensor.
Therefore, there are many problems to be solved such as meeting the purpose of downsizing, the number of parts is small, the labor of wiring work is reduced, and the manufacturing cost is greatly reduced.

Even in the latter known example, there was a circumstance that it could not be actually used for the same reason. Further, in the former case, the single acceleration sensor in the Z-axis direction alone cannot detect the X-axis. In the latter, since the plate-shaped bimorph and the type in which the additional mass is placed on the end portion of the plate-shaped bimorph, the resonance frequency cannot be made high and only limited applications can be used.

Regarding the polarization direction of the element, since an end face electrode is provided on the plate-shaped piezoelectric ceramic to polarize between the end faces, and the piezoelectric ceramic is cut and formed by intersecting with the polarization direction, so to speak, as indicated by arrow 7 in FIG. It is polarized diagonally. Therefore, the vibration of both the X and Z axes can be detected with a single element. By reducing the size of the acceleration sensor, a hard disk or the like as a mounted device can detect an acceleration close to that peculiar to the device, and operates as an acceleration sensor having very small weight dependence of the sensor itself.

途により切り出す形状を任意に設定できよう。FIG. 2 is a perspective view of a plate-shaped piezoelectric ceramic 14 before cutting out a large number of piezoelectric ceramics 1. Silver electrodes 15 and 16 were burned on both end faces of the plate-shaped piezoelectric ceramic 14, and were polarized with a DC voltage of 1 kv / mm. From this, a large number of piezoelectric ceramics 1 are cut into a rectangular parallelepiped as shown in the central portion of the figure. In addition, although it is described as a rectangular parallelepiped, it is also possible to use a trapezoidal section, a rhombic section, a plate shape, etc., and the shape to be cut out can be arbitrarily set depending on the application.

The effect was recognized in actual use in the range of 5 to 75 degrees. Further, in the range of 30 to 60 degrees, advantages such as output balance surface of both X and Z axes and ease of calculation were observed.

た。In the case of FIG. 2, it is set to 45 degrees for convenience of explanation, but it is not limited to this. Lead zirconate titanate is suitable as the plate-shaped piezoelectric ceramic material used, and the cut out piezoelectric ceramic 1 is approximately 6.8 mm in length and width.
The size was 7.5 mm square and the thickness was about 0.6 mm. Although it depends on the measurement application and the degree of impact, it has recently been demanded to cut out to an extremely thin piezoelectric ceramic 1 due to the progress of circuit technology, and a thickness of 0.2 to 0.5 mm, which is compatible with them, was also possible. Further, the size of the piezoelectric ceramic 1 to be cut out can also be cut out to the size-reduced piezoelectric ceramic 1 and, for example, the size of 3 to 5 mm square can be dealt with.

によって検出することができる。FIG. 4 is a graph showing the sensitivity of the entire circumference of the acceleration sensor obtained in the embodiment. The output characteristics in the X and Z axis directions can be confirmed. The vertical direction of the acceleration sensor is 0 ° and 180 ° in the Z-axis direction, and the vertical direction is 90 ° and 270 ° in the X-axis direction. The maximum sensitivity from now on is about 20 ° and about 270 °.
It can be seen that there are biaxial directions in the vicinity. From these, the so-called main axis sensitivity of the Z-axis direction component,
The horizontal axis sensitivity of the X-axis direction component is required. Therefore, in the conventional acceleration sensor, only the so-called main axis sensitivity of the Z-axis direction component was obtained, but in the present invention, vibration in both the X and Z axis directions is controlled by a single acceleration sensor by controlling the polarization direction. Can be detected.

It is an output frequency characteristic in the axial direction. Horizontal axis is frequency 50Hz
~ 50kHz, vertical axis is sensor output 10db / scale,
The sensitivity is 0.77 mV / G acceleration. Similarly, FIG. 6 shows ringing characteristics with respect to the impact force of the acceleration sensor. The horizontal axis is the time, and the vertical axis is the output of the sensor. As seen from the waveform, no ringing was observed. From these, it is possible to obtain a sensor that is flat up to about 10 kHz and is small and lightweight, so that it can be mounted on a printed circuit board. As a result, the vibration system is not disturbed and it can be expected to be used in a wide range of fields of use. For example, it is possible to detect not only the X-axis direction vibration of a hard disk used in a notebook computer, but also the Z-axis direction simultaneously.
It was confirmed to be suitable as an impact sensor.

が期待できよう。It can be seen from FIG. 6 that the relative sensitivity of the acceleration output significantly improved the influence of ringing because the resonance frequency increased, and there was an effect that no ringing countermeasures such as the use of a filter were required. In general, when a shock is applied to the acceleration sensor, it is excited at the resonance frequency and is added to the original waveform of the output as ringing, which causes an error.The magnitude of the ringing amplitude is reduced by increasing the resonance frequency or filtering. Is improved by using. Further, as can be seen from the frequency characteristic shown in FIG. 5, the resonance frequency is increased, so that it can be expected to be used in a wider field of use.

速度センサとして動作することが明らかであった。Further, this acceleration sensor can be used with an impact force of 0.1 G or more, which is considerably small, and is suitable for use with a hard disk or the like. Further, since the weight ratio of the acceleration sensor to the vibrating body such as the mounted device can be made extremely low, the resonance frequency also becomes high, and the acceleration sensor capable of measuring the acceleration of the mounted device without being conscious of sensor mounting was obtained. Therefore, it was clear that an acceleration close to the peculiar to the device can be detected, and that the sensor operates as an acceleration sensor having very small weight dependence of the sensor itself.

果が認められた。Further, it is possible to provide an acceleration sensor suitable for use in a hard disk or the like, which is unprecedented in size reduction, the number of parts can be reduced, and the manufacturing cost can be drastically reduced. Furthermore, since the weight ratio of the acceleration sensor to the vibration body such as the mounted device is extremely low, the resonance frequency can be increased and the acceleration measurement closer to that of the vibration body itself can be achieved. In addition, sensor mounting is simple, shock resistance and reliability are high. The effect was recognized as a high acceleration sensor.
