Definitions
- the present invention relates to electromechanical vibrators, and more particularly to piezoelectric crystals, and to supports and holders therefor.
- Piezo-electric crystals while vibrating, have a tendency to move bodily between their electrodes, due to friction between the surface of the vibrating crystal and its supporting surface, and to the reaction from the supersonic waves radiated from the crystal. Such motion is undesirable because of the resulting erratic changes in frequency.
- Methods of constraining the crystal to prevent these erratic changes of frequency must be carefully applied to be successful and must differ according to the mode of oscillation. For example, in a crystal plate of thickness small compared with the other dimensions and vibrating in the thickness mode, constraint of the entire periphery of the crystal is not satisfactory because the dimensions of the periphery change periodically with the vibrating expansions and contraction of the crystal.

- the crystal plate is held against bodily movement out of the position in which it is fixed. It is, however held so as to vibrate freely, according to the desired mode of vibration, without restriction, and without interfering with its vibrations, and without introducing variations in frequency.

- the points I and 3 may be disposed along the electric axis of the crystal, where there is small vibratory movement when the crystal is vibrated transversely to the direction of this axis.

14 Claims.
The present invention relates to electromechanical vibrators, and more particularly to piezoelectric crystals, and to supports and holders therefor.
Piezo-electric crystals, while vibrating, have a tendency to move bodily between their electrodes, due to friction between the surface of the vibrating crystal and its supporting surface, and to the reaction from the supersonic waves radiated from the crystal. Such motion is undesirable because of the resulting erratic changes in frequency. Methods of constraining the crystal to prevent these erratic changes of frequency must be carefully applied to be successful and must differ according to the mode of oscillation. For example, in a crystal plate of thickness small compared with the other dimensions and vibrating in the thickness mode, constraint of the entire periphery of the crystal is not satisfactory because the dimensions of the periphery change periodically with the vibrating expansions and contraction of the crystal. Such clamping of the periphery to prevent bodily movement consequently interferes with the free vibration of the plate. In the case of a quartz bar whose length is large compared With the other dimensions and vibrating in the length dimension, considerable interference with vibration in the direction of the length results from resting the crystal on a supporting surface, due to friction between the surfaces.
According to the invention disclosed in application Serial No. 571,930, filed October 29, 1931, a piezo-electric crystal is held nodally by adjustable holding members, preferably at points along its electric axis, and entirely out of contact with other points or surfaces. Though the crystal is thus held positively and prevented from moving bodily, it is permitted to vibrate freely.
This is a very efficient structure, but difiiculties sometimes arise by reason of the fact that the crystal electrodes are independent of the crystal. Any change in the position of the electrodes relative to the crystal causes a change in frequency. For some purposes, advantage may be taken of this fact to obtain some adjustment of the frequency, without resorting to actual grinding of the quartz. For use in high-precision frequency standards, however, the presence of the air gap is detrimental, as it is desirable to avoid possible variations in frequency that might result from variations in the air gap. The air gap, furthermore, reduces the effectiveness of the crystal in controlling the frequency of the oscillator.
It is accordingly an object of the present in- 1933, Serial No. 678,416
vention to provide a new and improved electromechanical vibrator and mounting that shall be free from such defects.
With this end in view, a feature of the invention resides in integrally providing the nodallysupported vibrator with electrodes that, because they cannot shift with respect to it, can not, consequently, introduce any frequency variations of the type described.
Other and further objects will be explained hereinafter and will be particularly pointed out in the appended claims.
The invention will now be explained in connection with the accompanying drawings, in which Fig. 1 is a perspective illustrating a preferred embodiment of the invention, parts being broken away, for clearness; Fig. 2 is a section taken upon the line 2--2 of Fig. 1, looking in the direction of the arrows, the baille plate being omitted, for clearness; Fig. 3 is a perspective of apiezoelectric-crystal vibrator embodying the present invention; Fig. 4 is a perspective illustrating a crystal vibrator and one method of cutting it from a quartz crystal, shown in dot-and-dash lines; and Fig. 5 is a view similar to Fig. 1, illustrating one method of clamping the crystal vibrator shown in Fig. 4 at points disposed along a line at right angles to the electric axis.
A rectangular, quartz-crystal plate 2 is shown provided with conducting electrodes 8 and I2, integrally formed on opposite sides of the crystal in any desired manner, as by chemically depositing a silver coating. The electrodes 8 and I2 are suitably connected in an electric circuit (not shown) by means of connecting leads or wires I0 and II, that are permanently joined to the electrodes 8 and I2; and that may be connected With binding posts or the like l4 and IS.
The crystal plate is held against bodily movement out of the position in which it is fixed. It is, however held so as to vibrate freely, according to the desired mode of vibration, without restriction, and without interfering with its vibrations, and without introducing variations in frequency. This is effected, according to the preferred embodiment of the invention, by clamping the crystal at small, medial areas corresponding to nodes of movement, at oppositely disposed, central points I and 3 on opposite sides of the crystal, pads 5 and 6 of felt, cork or the like, being interposed against the lower and upper faces of the crystal over the central, stationary points I and 3. The points I and 3 may be disposed along the electric axis of the crystal, where there is small vibratory movement when the crystal is vibrated transversely to the direction of this axis.
' The crystal plate 2 is thus held clamped in the yoke 15 upon the base ll, at the oppositely disposed points I and 3. As the electrodes can not move with respect to the crystal, it is impossible to introduce resulting frequency errors.
By threading the screw 1 in the yokel5, the degree of nodal pressure may beadjusted so as to hold the crystal with any desired degree of tightness, and yet so as to introduce the least energy loss from the vibrating crystal to its sup ports. Damping of the vibrating crystal is thus reduced to the minimum.
As is also disclosed in the said application, bailie plates 29 are disposed on the base [1, parallel and near to the end faces of the crystal, and are adapted to be adjusted towards and from the crystal ends by angle plates}! that are fixed to the baflie plates 29 at 33, and that are provided with elongated openings 35 adapted to receive screws Bl that are threaded into the base ll.
In the normal X-cut bar vibrating in the direction of its length (transversely to the X-axis) the central nodal region makes an angle across the larger faces of the crystal. That is, the nodal line on either of the larger faces makes an angle with the optic or Z axis, which is either positive or negative depending upon whether the bar is cut from left or right-handed quartz.
If the bar is cut at the proper angle A, Fig. 4, the nodal line can be made to cross the larger faces of the crystal at right angles to the length of the bar.
Nodal support may therefore be provided otherwise than by disposing the points along the electric axis of the crystal, as at I and 3, and one such other way is illustrated in Fig. 4, where the plate vibrator is shown cut from the crystal 39 in a plane M parallel to the optic axis Z, and
with its width dimension at the angle A to the optic axis Z of the crystal 3%. The angle A is less than a right angle, and varies with circumstances. It may be about 29 degrees to the optic axis Z in normal, X-cut plates.
When the vibrator plate is properly cut in this manner, the intermediately disposed plane; shown at I, 38, 3, 59, disposed at right angles across the larger faces'of the crystal plate, is a nod-a1 plane, about which the crystal oscillates with the plane substantially stationary, and the oppositely disposed points i and 3, or 38 and M! of either pair of oppositely disposed faces of the crystal, therefore, are nodal points, at which the crystal bar may be held clamped.
-If the crystal is clamped at I and 3, on the coated faces, or at 38 and 49, between the coated faces, and at right angles to the coated faces, it will be balanced at the points of support and free to vibrate.
A crystal bar out in this manner has a very low piezo-electric coefiicient, so that it is usually difficult to set it into oscillation in the usual, airgap type of crystal holder. When the crystal is mounted and coated in accordance with the present invention, however, the operation is quite successful. 7
As the crystal is not free to move bodily, but is nevertheless'free to vibrate without hindrance,
all the objections heretofore inherent in electrode-coated, piezo-electric crystals have automatically become eliminated, and a very efiicient and serviceable structure is provided, that is freer from error than any crystal mounting heretofore proposed, particularly when provided with the bafile plates 29 and when maintained at constant temperature, as explained more fully in the said application.
The nearer to the points of no motion that a crystal is held clamped, the lower is the temperature coefficient of the system as a whole, as experimentally observed. A crystai that is provided with coated electrodes in the above-described manner, it isfound, has a smaller temperature coefiicient than crystals provided with electrodes in any other way. The crystal of the present invention, furthermore, has a lower decrement, because it involves a very simple vibratory movement, coupled with a large ratio of the mass to the elasticity; This is of considerable importance, because large crystals are better frequency standards, having lower decrements, other things being'the same.v The improvement increases as the square of the length of the crystal plate.
It will, of course, be understood that the invention is not restricted .to the exact embodiment thereof that is illustrated and described herein, as modifications may be made by persons skilled in the art, and all such are considered to fall within the spirit and scope of the invention, as defined in the appended claims.
