Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain large flexible displacement, and to mass-produce the element by mutually arranging a plurality of electrostrictive substrates flexibly displaced in parallel and directing flexible displacement in case of the application of voltage to the adjacent electrostrictive substrates to the opposite direction. CONSTITUTION:The pasted electrostrictive substrates 6, 7 are fixed with epoxy resin through an epoxy resin board 3 at the end sections. One end of the electrostrictive substrate 7 is fastened to a supporting base 4 with adhesives in the length of 3mm.. DC voltage in the opposite direction is applied to the electrostrictive substrate 6 and the electrostrictive substrate 7 so that upward concave flexible displacement is generated in the electrostrictive substrate 6 and downward concave flexible displacement in the electrostrictive substrate 7. Accordingly, the quantity of displacement of flexure is increased by 76% without changing the length of the element as compared to conventional elements consisting of one electrostrictive substrates.

Conventionally, electrostrictive elements that undergo deflection displacement are made by stacking two piezoelectric plates and bonding them directly or through a reinforcing plate, and applying a voltage causes one to expand and the other to contract, thereby producing a deflection displacement. There are also types that have a structure in which a piezoelectric plate is attached to one side of a metal plate, and these are widely used. In order to obtain a large deflection color change with these displacement elements, it is necessary to increase the length of the piezoelectric body plate. However, as the length of the piezoelectric plate increases, the shape of the displacement element becomes larger, so until now it has been impossible to obtain a large deflection displacement with a small element. In addition, a method of obtaining a large deflection displacement with a relatively small shape by providing a slit with one side open in an electrostrictive substrate that deflects and making the deflection in the opposite direction using the slit as a boundary is disclosed in JP-A-56- Although this method is described in Japanese Patent No. 66685, there are still problems to be solved, such as the need for a large electrostrictive substrate and the difficulty in mass production.

As shown in the figure, three electrostrictive substrates 1i3, 9.10 were fixed with epoxy resins 13a, 13b by four lengths at one end in opposite directions. Further, the free end of the electrostrictive substrate 1o was fixed to a support base 14 in order to use it as a reference for displacement.
