Bidirectional Linear Ultrasonic Motor Using Longitudinal Vibrating Transducers

Fan Zhang, Weishan Chen, Junkao Liu, and Zhisong Wang

ABSTRACT A transducer for a bidirectional ultrasonic motor is realized by using vibrating levitation. The transducer consists of two Langevin transducers that assemble together with their axes in π/2 angle. The structure and driving circuit are simple, and the prototype motor shows high speed and large thrust.
