Abstract
A driving mechanism is provided that includes a fixed assembly, a movable part, and a driving module. The movable part is movable relative to the fixed assembly. The driving module is configured to drive the movable part to move relative to the fixed assembly. When viewed in a first axis, the driving module is disposed between the fixed assembly and the movable part.
Claims19
A piezoelectric driving mechanism, comprising:
- a fixed assembly;
- a movable part, configured to move relative to the fixed assembly;
- and
- a driving module, configured to drive the movable part to move relative to the fixed assembly;
- wherein when viewed in a first axis, the driving module is disposed between the fixed assembly and the movable part;
- the driving module includes a first elastic member and a piezoelectric assembly;
- the driving module further includes a driving member fixedly disposed on the first elastic member;
- the piezoelectric assembly is configured to drive the first elastic member to deform, so as to drive the driving member to move relative to the fixed assembly;
- the driving member is configured to drive the movable part to move relative to the fixed assembly along the first axis;
- when viewed along a second axis, the first elastic member has a rectangular structure;
- the first axis is perpendicular to the second axis;
- the first elastic member has a first side arm and a second side arm;
- the first side arm and the second side arm extend along the first axis;
- the driving member is fixedly disposed on the first side arm;
- the first elastic member further has a third side arm and a fourth side arm connected between the first side arm and the second side arm;
- the third side arm and the fourth side arm extend along a third axis;
- the third axis is perpendicular to the first axis and the second axis.
