Article Citation Count: 102A 1.6-mm, metal tube ultrasonic motor(Ieee-inst Electrical Electronics Engineers inc, 2003) Cagatay, S; Koc, B; Uchino, KA miniaturized metal tube ultrasonic motor, the dimensions of which are 1.6 mm in diameter and 6 rum in length, was developed. Two flattened surfaces with 90-degrees were ground on the outer surface of the stator. Two PZT-based piezoelectric ceramics were bonded onto these flat surfaces. The asymmetrical surface of the stator developed the split of the two degenerated orthogonal bending modes, resulting in a wobble motion. The working frequency of the 1.6-mm motor with 6 mm in length was 130 kHz. A torque of 0.5 mNm was reached at a maximum power of 45 mW with a speed of 45 rad/sec. The maximum efficiency was 16%.Article Citation Count: 8Hybrid electrooptic and piezoelectric laser beam steering in two dimensions(Ieee-inst Electrical Electronics Engineers inc, 2005) Scrymgeour, DA; Koc, B; Tian, LL; Gentzel, MW; Uchino, K; Gopalan, VWith modern optical technology, there is a great demand for devices capable of steering a laser beam. at high speed. A hybrid electrooptical scanner and an electromechanical scanner capable of two-dimensional (2-D) laser beam scanning Eire demonstrated. This device can scan a laser beam in 2-D. A V scanning angle in the horizontal axis at 50 Hz using electrooptic scanning and a 5.23 degrees scanning angle in vertical axis at 25.6 kHz using piezoelectric scanning are shown.Conference Object Citation Count: 79Micro piezoelectric ultrasonic motors(Springer, 2004) Uchino, K; Cagatay, S; Koc, B; Dong, S; Bouchilloux, P; Strauss, MThis paper reviews recent developments of micro ultrasonic rotary motors using piezoelectric resonant vibrations. Following the historical background, four ultrasonic motors recently developed at Penn State University are introduced; windmill, PZT tube, metal tube, and shear-type motors. Driving principles and motor characteristics are described in comparison with the conventional ultrasonic motors. Motors with 1.5 mm in diameter and 0.8 mN.m in torque have been actually developed.Article Citation Count: 30A piezoelectric micromotor with a stator of φ=1.6 mm and l=4 mm using bulk PZT(inst Pure Applied Physics, 2004) Cagatay, S; Koc, B; Moses, P; Uchino, KThe smallest discrete piezoelectric ultrasonic motor using bulk ceramics was developed. We are proposing basically a two-part motor: stator and rotor. The stator of the present motor consists of a hollow metal brass tube with outer diameter of 1.6 mm, inner diameter of 0.8 mm and length of only 4 mm with 2 PZT plates bonded onto it. Owing to the asymmetrical stator surface, two degenerated orthogonal bending modes were slightly split, resulting in a wobbling motion. Thus, the motor can be driven by a single driving source. The rotor is a spring, which is basically different from previous designs, pressed at both ends to the stator by a pair of ferrules. Consequently, the length of the whole motor assembly was reduced significantly; a final motor length cf only 5 mm was obtained. The working frequency under zero load was approximately 227-233 kHz. Although the size is small, relatively high power was obtained under an optimized load condition: torque of 0.06mNm, maximum power of 3.2 mW with a speed of 118 rad/s, and maximum efficiency of 11% under 48 Vrms at 221 kHz.
