Abstract

See full text

A control method for a piezoelectric drive device having a vibrating portion including a piezoelectric element and a transmitting portion, synthesizing longitudinal vibration and flexural vibration by energization to the piezoelectric element to vibrate the vibrating portion and make elliptic motion of the transmitting portion, and moving a driven member by the elliptic motion of the transmitting portion, includes controlling a movement amount of the driven member by changing amplitude of the longitudinal vibration with amplitude of the flexural vibration kept constant.
