Microstepping control of two phase hybrid step motors provides high step resolution as well as smoothness of operation at low speed, and removes most of the resonance phenomena which is undesirable. This paper focuses on the development of a microstepping driver with enhanced performance. The developed microstepping driver can divide one step(l.8 degree) into 128 microsteps and supports current saving mode to remove the thermal problems which results from long time operation.

In this paper, a new type of pi+ezoelectric stepping motor is designed, manufactured and tested. This motor is composed of piezoelectric torsional actuator and a pair of one-way clutch bearings. The torsional actuator consists of 16-polygonal tube of piezoceramic that can produce an angular displacement associated with shear mode. One-way clutch bearing converts oscillation of torsional actuator into a continuous stepping rotation. The proposed stepping motor does not require any conversion mechanism for stepping motion like any other motors. In the design process, the shear resonance mode of piezoelectric actuator is analyzed by using a commercial finite element analysis program, and the performance of the fabricated torsional actuator is measured. $0.124^{\circ}$ of maximum angular displacement is measured in square wave excitation on the actuator only. The stepping motor is manufactured by assembling a pair of one-way clutch bearings and the torsional actuator. The maximum rotation speed of 72rpm and the blocking torque of 3.136 mNm are measured at 3540 Hz and 100V/mm. Once the proposed piezoelectric stepping motor is miniaturized, it can be used for many compact and precise moving applications.

본 연구에서는 128개의 능동소자로 구성된 convex형 초음파 탐촉자를 회전시켜 3차원 입체영상을 구현 할 수 있도록 하는 구동부를 설계 및 제작하여, 3차원 입체 영상 진단용 초음파 섹터 트랜스듀서를 개발하였다. 탐촉자는 중심주파수 4.5Mhz, 대역폭 $66\%$로 제작되었으며, 구동부는 탐촉자의 축을 스텝모터와 평기어를 이용해 회전시킴으로써 3차원 입체영상을 획득할 수 있게 고안하였다. 그리고 피부와 유사한 고분자재료를 사용하여 탐촉자의 회전반경과 동일하게 음향커버를 설계 및 제작하였다. 제작된 초음파 섹터 트랜스듀서는 정밀한 각도 제어 및 구조적 안정성이 확보되었음을 확인 할 수 있었다.

In this study, we have developed a 3-dimensional diagnostic ultrasonic sector probe using a convex type ultrasonic probe with 128 active elements. The probe was made to operate at the center frequency of 4.5㎒ with the bandwidth of 66%. The driving part was designed to rotate the axis of the convex probe by means of a step motor equipped with reduction gears and spur gears attached to the motor so that the probe could enable us to acquire a series of 2-dimensional images to construct a 3-dimensional image. Acoustic cover of the probe was made of polymers to have the same radius of rotation as that of the convex probe. The controllability of the rotation angle and the structural stability of the probe were confirmed through experimental 3-dimensional images obtained using the developed 3-dimensional sector probe.

A new type of rotational motor which is developed has a resolution smaller than 10 $^{-4}$ radian and can be accessed for full rotational angles. The operation principle of the motor is based on inchworm motion of two belt driving mechanism. Flexure hinge mechanism, which is pertinent to symmetry construction of the motor, is designed to minimze the effort to frame and is analyzed by using finite element method. Depending on input signal amplitude, rotational angle by one cycle is varied form 0.2*10 $^{-4}$ rad to 9.76* $^{-4}$ rad. This shows that it has the capability of getting very small rotational angle by considering radius of rotor and amplitude of input signal.

In this paper, A new type of piezoelectric step motor using piezoelectric torsional actuator and a pair of one-way clutch bearing is designed, manufactured and tested. The torsional actuator consists of 16-polygonal tube that can produce angular displacement using shear mode of piezoceramic. One-way clutch bearing convert oscillation of torsional actuator into continuous rotation. After performance testing of torsional actuator, the optimum condition for driving motor is investigated in terms of wave shape, excitation frequency and electrical field. The performance of the motor is experimentally evaluated. As a result, square wave has larger rotation speed than sin wave, and the maximum rotation speed of 57 rpm is measured at 3850 Hz and 100V/mm.
