In the micromotor, five pieces of piezoelectric ceramics clamped by two metal cylinders are used as its stator. The driving principle of the rodshaped ultrasonic motor is simulated. The stator structure and the position to lay these piezoelectric ceramics are calculated to improve the electro mechanical conversion efficiency. A flexible rotor is designed to reduce the radial slip between the stator and the rotor, and to improve the motor efficiency. The prototype motor and its micror driver are tested. The motor is 9 mm in out-diameter, 15 mm in length and 3.2 g in weight. When the motor operates with the first bending frequency （72 kHz） of the stator, its maximal rotational speed and the torque reach 520 r/rain and 4.5 mN · m. Results show that the motor has good stability. The speed fluctuation is controlled within 3% by the frequency automatic tracking technique.展开更多
