Patent number: 6949870Abstract: A tuning fork-type crystal vibrator is provided that has improved CI and shock resistance. The tuning fork-type crystal vibrator includes a tuning fork-shaped crystal element made of a pair of tuning fork arms having grooves in their principal surfaces, and a tuning fork base portion from which the pair of tuning fork arms extends, an outer shape of the tuning fork-shaped crystal element being processed by etching. The tuning fork-type crystal vibrator has a protrusion, formed due to anisotropy of said etching, on a +X surface of the lateral faces of the tuning fork-shaped crystal element, and a first slanted portion rising from a ?X direction in a +X direction formed in a tuning fork slit. A tip of the tuning fork slit on a principal surface side is shifted in +X direction from a center line bisecting the tuning fork-shaped crystal element in a width direction to a position at which tuning fork vibrations of the pair of tuning fork arms are balanced.Type: GrantFiled: November 8, 2004Date of Patent: September 27, 2005Assignee: Nihon Dempa Kogyo Co., Ltd.Inventors: Kozo Ono, Minoru Ishihara, Shingo Kawanishi

Patent number: 6930440Abstract: A tuning fork type quartz crystal unit has a base and a pair of arms extending from respective ends of the base in a crystallographic Y direction of quartz crystal. Each of the arms comprises a first crystal member and a second crystal member which extend in the Y direction. The first crystal member and the second crystal member are joined to each other in a crystallographic YZ plane by a direct bonding such that the first crystal member and the second crystal member have respective crystallographic X directions oriented away from each other and extending parallel to each other. Each of the arms has excitation electrodes disposed respectively on a pair of exposed surfaces thereof which lie in the YZ plane. The direct bonding comprises, for example, a siloxane bond by which the first crystal member and the second crystal member are joined to each other.Type: GrantFiled: October 30, 2003Date of Patent: August 16, 2005Assignee: Nihon Dempa Kogyo Co., Ltd.Inventors: Akio Chiba, Minoru Ishihara, Tamotsu Kurosawa
