The USM uses friction between a mobile part (rotor) and a vibration part(stator), which is different from the principle of the conventional motor based on the interaction of electric and magnetic fields. In this thesis, a flat-type $L_1-B_8$ mode USM was designed and fabricated the characteristics of an ultrasonic vibration. The results of fabricated USM are as follows: (1) In case of ultrasonic motor with elastic-body of stainless, when applied voltage, frequency, pressing force of rotor were 50 [V], 27.9 [kHz], 1.5 [N], 5.0[mN m] respectively, the speed of revolution could be presented up to 0 [cm/s]. (2) In case of ultrasonic motor with elastic-body of brass, when applied voltage, frequency, pressing force of rotor were 50 [V], 21.4 [kHz], 1.5 [N], 1.4[mN m]respectively, the speed of rotor revolution was presented up to 0 [cm/s]. (3) The USM of elastic-body of stainless showing 1.17[%], somewhat low, in the maximum efficiency according to torque was superior to the USM of elastic-body of brass showing 0.34 [%]. The Flat-type $L_1-B_8$ mode USM had characteristics of typical drooping torque-speed, large torque and high speed, and operating in both directions by phase reversal.

An ultrasonic linear motor was composed of a slider and a stator vibrator including piezoelectric material and elastic material. The ultrasonic linear motors mainly consist of an ultrasonic vibrator which generates elliptical oscillations. L$_1$-B$_4$ ultrasonic linear motor use longitudinal and bending multi-vibration. In order to low driving voltage and improve the life time of the ultrasonic oscillator, we used stacked piezoceramics. Stacked piezoceramics are adhered to aluminum elastic material. The finite element method was used to optimize dimension of ultrasonic vibrator and direction of vibratory displacement. As a result of estimating the characteristics of the ultrasonic linear motor, no-load velocity was 2.04[m/s] when applied voltage was 70[V$\sub$rms/] in resonance frequency.

A linear ultrasonic motor was designed by a combination of the first longitudinal and fourth bending mode, and the motor consisted of a straight aluminum alloys bar bonded with a piezoelectric ceramic element as a driving element. That is,$L_1-B_4$ linear ultrasonic motor can be constructed by a multi-mode vibrator of longitudinal and bending modes. Linear ultrasonic motors are based on an elliptical motion on the surface elastic body, such as bar or plates. In general, the natural resonance frequency of the stator is used as a driving frequency of the motor which provides a large elliptical motion. The corresponding eigenmode of one resonance frequency can be excited twice at the same time with a Phase shift of 90 degrees in space and time. And the rotation can be reversed by changing the phase between the two signals from sin$\omega$t to cos$\omega$t. Moreover, the tangential force pushes the slider(rotor) and, therefore, determines the thrust and speed of the motor. The experimental results of fabrication motors, bimorph-tyPe motor showed more excellent than unimorph-type. The maximum speed of TBL-200, TBL-300, TBL-400, TBL -220, TBL-310 and TBL-420 motors were 0.12, 0.37, 0.39, 0.14, 0.55 and $0.60ms6{-1}$, respectively. And the efficiency were reported 1.15, 7.9, 6.6, 2.36, 10.1 and 16.5%, respectively. That time, output thrust of the motor was a strong(1~2N) and the weight of stator was a lightness(5~7g).

This paper deals with a flat type ultrasonic motor, which uses a longitudinal-bending multi mode vibrator of rectangular form. A linear ultrasonic motor was designed by combination of the first longitudinal and eighth bending mode, and the motor consisted of a straight aluminum alloy bar bonded with piezoelectric ceramic elements as a driving element. The geometrical dimensions of the rectangular aluminum vibrator were determined by Euler-Bernoulli theory ANSYS was used to analyze the resonance frequency and the displacement of the stator vibrator. The resonance frequency of the motor provides the elliptical motion. and ANSYS was used to analyze elliptical motion and elliptical trajectory of stator vibrator when thickness of piezoelectric ceramics was varied respectively 0.763, 1.526, 2.289[mm] and width of stator vibrator was varied respectively 16, 12, 8, 4[mm]. When thickness of piezoelectric ceramics was decreased, the displacement of the stator vibrator was increased. And when width of stator vibrator was decreased, the displacement of the stator vibrator was increased.

We designed and fabricated plate-type linear ultrasonic motor. It used multi-vibration mode, 1st Longitudinal and 4th Bending mode. To analyze vibration mode and find maximum displacement point, we simulated using FEM(Finite Element Method). The plate-type linear ultrasonic motor was fabricated by the simulation results. Also, to confirm application to card-forwarding device, frequency and load characteristics were measured. Its resonance frequency was 49.6 kHz, and its maximum speed was about 0.6m/s when no load. Also, its maximum efficiency was 1.2 % and in that time, speed and torque was 0.3 m/s and 0.7 mNm, respectively.

In this paper the relationship between the pressing force applied to rotors and the characteristics of ultrasonic motor are discussed. The characteristics of ultrasonic motor using a piezoelectric vibrator were systematically studied. And these were applied to the construction of a card forwarding device. The principle of ultrasonic motor is to use an elliptical motion generated on the side of the vibrator, and the elliptical motion of the ultrasonic motor was obtained by complex oscillation of $L_1-B_4$ mode. As the experimental results. the forwarding speed of the card increased linearly as the pressing force applied to rotors increased. The forwarding speed of the card was 16.0 cm/s when the pressing force applied to rotors was 1 N. The forwarding force of the card increased linearly as the pressing force applied to rotors increased. The forwarding force of the card was 398 mN when the pressing force applied to rotors was 1 N. Therefore, this ultrasonic motor can be expected to be used for card-forwarding device and so on.

This paper is a study on a linear ultrasonic motor with a first longitudinal$(L_1)$ and fourth bending $(B_4)$ double-mode rectangular plate. The stator vibrator is composed of an elastic material plate and of a piezo-ceramic element having a motion by electrical excitation. Each strain vector differs by $90^{\circ}$ generate travelling wave with the elliptical displacement motion of a point on the surface. To magnify displacement of longitudinal direction in elliptical displacement motion, the motor has a mechanism of the.displacement enlargement. In this paper, the vibration shape of the stator is simulated using the finite element method. A detailed model considered of the piezoelectric effect and of the exact geometry of the stator is used to calculate the displacement. The position of displacement mechanism is decided by the maximum displacement.

압전소자를 이용한 초음파 모터는 전자기적 원리로 동작하는 기존의 모터에 비해 구조가 간단하고 소형, 경량화가 가능하며 저속에서 큰 토크가 가능하고 ${\mu}m$단위 까지 정밀제어가 가능하다는 장점 등으로 인해 그 응용분야가 점차 확대되고 있다. 초음파 모터의 원리는 수평과 수직방향에서 변위가 타원형 운동을 형성하는 것이다. 따라서 선택한 타원운동의 방식에 의해서 모터의 형상이 달라진다. 초음파 모터는 액츄에이터를 사용하여 만들기 때문에 액츄에이터의 특성은 모터의 타원변위나 토크에 영향을 미친다. 단판형 액츄에이터에 비하여 적층 액츄에이터는 입력 임피던스를 낮추어 낮은 구동전압에서 구동이 가능하며 큰 변위와 토크를 발생하기 때문에 진동자의 수명 향상과 구동전압을 낮추기에 적합하다. 적층 액츄에이터는 변위량이나 응력 등을 개선하기 위해서 전기기계 결합계수(kp) 및 압전 d상수가 큰 재료가 요구되며, 고전압에서 장시간 구동 시 마찰에 의한 열손실을 감소시키기 위해 높은 기계적 품질계수(Qm)를 가져야한다. 적층 시 내부전극으로 사용하는 Pd, Pt가 함유된 전극은 가격이 비싸 제조비용을 상승시킨다. 상대적으로 값싼 Ag전극을 사용하면 비용절감을 할 수 있지만 융점이 낮아서 저온소결이 불가피하다. 따라서, 특성이 우수한 적층 액츄에이터를 제조하기 위해서 저손실, 저온소결 할 수 있는 액츄에이터 재료가 필요한 실정이다. L1-B4 혈 선혈 초음파 모터는 L1모드와 B4모드의 공진 주파수가 일치하여야 큰 변위를 얻을 수 있는데 이전의 논문에서 Atila를 이용한 시뮬레이션 결과를 분석한 봐 있다. 적층 액츄에이터의 층수를 5,7,9,11,13,15층으로 하여 L1-B4모드에서의 공진주파수를 비교한 결과 13 층일 때 두 모드가 비슷한 공진주파수를 보였고, 티원변위궤적도 다른 층수에 비해 크게 나타났다. 본 연구에서는 시뮬레이션 결과 가장 좋은 특성을 보인 13층 액츄에이터로 선형 초음파 모터를 제작하였다. 또한, 액츄에이터는 압전 및 유전특성이 우수한 저온소결 PZW-PMN-PZT세라믹을 이용하여 제작하였고, 내부전극으로 Ag전극을 사용하였다. 제작된 13 층 선형초음파모터를 가지고 프리로드 및 전압에 따른 속도를 조사하였고, 시뮬레이션 결과와 비교해 보았다.
