  • Patent number: 4634884
    Abstract: According to an image pickup device, a swing-driver unit is provided for vibrating an image sensor unit, thereby causing the image sensor unit to perform an image pickup operation in such a manner as to periodically shift to different sampling positions at different time points in one frame period. The swing-driver comprises a pair of plate-like bimorph piezoelectric elements for stably supporting the image sensor unit. The image sensor unit and the piezoelectric elements are sealed in a ceramic frame body in a compact manner. The electrical connection between the image sensor unit and lead wires formed on the frame is performed by a flexible film connector. The electrical connection between the piezoelectric elements and the lead wires is performed by wiring patterns preformed on the frame.
