Abstract
A vibratory gyroscope sensor is provided. The vibratory gyroscope sensor consists of a base, and a resonator that includes a central foot attached to the base and a sidewall that rises from the foot up to a free end edge delimiting an opening. The sidewall has a proximal portion that extends from and around the foot and a cylindrical distal portion that extends in line with the proximal portion up to the free edge with the proximal portion progressively widening from the foot towards the distal portion.
Claims13
A vibratory gyroscope sensor comprising:
- a base,
- a resonator that includes a central foot by which the resonator is attached to said base and a sidewall that extends from said foot up to a free end edge delimiting an opening,
- wherein said sidewall has a proximal portion and a cylindrically shaped distal portion, said proximal portion extending from and around said foot, said cylindrically shaped distal portion extending from said proximal portion up to said free end edge, said proximal portion flaring out from the foot towards the distal portion,
- wherein said proximal portion includes a plurality of arms separated from each other by clear spaces and arranged equiangularly around said foot, each of said arms extending longitudinally between a central end arranged on the side of the foot and a peripheral end arranged on the side of the distal portion,
- wherein the vibratory gyroscope sensor comprises a plurality of excitation devices attached to said proximal portion to excite said resonator into vibration, as well as a plurality of detection devices attached to said proximal portion to detect vibrations of said resonator, and
- wherein said excitation devices and/or said detection devices are attached to said arms.
