With the above configuration, the surface roughness of the holding portion of the holding terminal is larger than the surface roughness of the vibration electrode of the piezoelectric resonator, so that the contact area between the holding portion and the vibration electrode is small, and the holding portion and the vibration electrode do not adhere. . Therefore, the vibration generated in the piezoelectric resonator is less likely to be damped. In addition, the contact state between the holding part and the vibration electrode changes from the conventional surface contact at a single point to point contact at a plurality of points. The effect can be almost ignored. Therefore, the holding portion can be brought into point contact over a wide range of the piezoelectric resonator, and the piezoelectric resonator is reliably and stably supported.

From the graph, it can be seen that the piezoelectric component C in which the surface roughness of the holding portion is smaller than the surface roughness of the vibration electrode of the piezoelectric resonator is largely damped, and unnecessary vibration is also generated (see solid lines C1 and C2). Also, the piezoelectric component B whose surface roughness of the holding portion is substantially the same as the surface roughness of the vibration electrode is considerably damped (see solid lines B1 and B2). However, the piezoelectric component 1 in which the surface roughness of the holding parts 21c and 22c is larger than the surface roughness of the vibrating electrodes 12 and 13 is different from that of the holding parts 21c and 22.
Despite the fact that c is in contact with a point other than the node point of the piezoelectric resonator 15, it is hardly damped (solid line A1,
A2). That is, the piezoelectric component 1 has the dotted lines D1 and D2.
The characteristics almost equivalent to the characteristics of the conventional piezoelectric component D indicated by are obtained.

[Second Embodiment, FIGS. 7 to 13] As shown in FIG. 7, the holding terminal 35 used in the piezoelectric component of the second embodiment includes an electrode portion 35a, an external connection portion 35b, and a holding portion 3.
5c. The holding portion 35c is composed of a plurality of conductive cilia 36 provided directly on the electrode portion 35a at an appropriate density. However, as in the first embodiment, a plurality of conductive cilia may be cut out of a conductive mother substrate having a surface formed on the surface in desired sizes, and attached to the electrode portions 35a with a conductive adhesive or the like. .

The size of the conductive cilia 36 is preferably 100 μm or less. If the conductive cilia 36 becomes too long,
This is because the conductive cilia easily bends and the positioning of the piezoelectric resonator 15 becomes difficult. The conductive cilia 36 is disposed so that the length direction is substantially perpendicular to the electrode portion 35a. Examples of the material of the conductive cilia 36 include metal, carbon fiber, glass fiber, insulating whisker or the like coated with a conductive metal material, or heat-resistant fiber with metal plating, vapor deposition, sputtering, or the like.

As shown in FIG. 8, the pair of holding terminals 35 sandwich the piezoelectric resonator 15 with an appropriate pressing force, and then housed in a case (not shown) to form a piezoelectric component 38. In the piezoelectric component 38, the surface of the holding portion 35c of the holding terminal 35 is rougher than the surfaces of the vibrating electrodes 12, 13 of the piezoelectric resonator 15, so that the contact area between the holding portion 35c and the vibrating electrodes 12, 13 is small, and the holding portion 35c And the vibrating electrodes 12 and 13 do not adhere. In addition, the conductive cilia 36 is substantially vertically
Since they abut against the vibrating electrodes 12 and 13, the tips of the conductive cilia 36 are strongly locked to the vibrating electrodes 12 and 13, and the displacement of the piezoelectric resonator 15 is unlikely to occur. Therefore, the pressure contact force of the holding terminal 35 to the piezoelectric resonator 15 can be reduced. As described above, the vibration generated in the piezoelectric resonator 15 is less likely to be damped. Further, the holding portion 35c and the vibration electrode 12,
13 changes from a conventional surface contact at a single point to a point contact at a plurality of points. Therefore, even if the holding portion 35c is brought into contact with a point other than the node point of the piezoelectric resonator 15, the effect of damping can be almost ignored. For this reason, the holding portion 35c can be brought into point contact over a wide range of the piezoelectric resonator 15, and the piezoelectric resonator 1
5 can be reliably and stably supported without tilting.

The arrangement density and length of the conductive cilia 36 need not necessarily be uniform. In particular, by making the arrangement density and the length non-uniform, the pressure contact characteristics of the holding terminal 35 to the piezoelectric resonator 15 become gentle, and the effect of increasing the design margin can be obtained. Further, as shown in FIG. 9, a piezoelectric component 38a in which the piezoelectric resonator 15 is sandwiched between a pair of holding terminals 35 having holding portions 35c having different areas may be used. As shown in FIG. 10, a piezoelectric component 38b having a larger area of the holding portion 35c than the piezoelectric resonator 15 has
Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 11, a piezoelectric component 38c in which the piezoelectric resonator 15 is supported by three or more holding portions 35c may be used.

As is apparent from the above description, according to the present invention, the surface roughness of the holding portion of at least one of the holding terminals is made larger than the surface roughness of the vibration electrode of the piezoelectric resonator. The contact area between the holding part and the vibration electrode is small, and the holding part and the vibration electrode do not adhere. Therefore, the vibration generated in the piezoelectric resonator is less likely to be damped.

Also, since the holding portion and the vibrating electrode change from the conventional surface contact at a single location to point contact at a plurality of locations, even if the holding portion is brought into contact with a point other than the node point of the piezoelectric resonator, the influence of damping is obtained. Can be almost ignored. For this reason, the holding portion can be brought into point contact over a wide range of the piezoelectric resonator, and the piezoelectric resonator can be reliably and stably supported without rotating the piezoelectric resonator or causing a position shift.
