  • Publication number: 20180102759
    Abstract: An elastic wave device includes a sealing member sealing first and second elastic wave elements mounted on the mounting surface and including first and second surfaces, an impression being provided on the second surface. The first elastic wave element includes a first piezoelectric substrate made of LiNbO3, and the second elastic wave element includes a second piezoelectric substrate made of LiNbO3 or LiTaO3. The thickness of the first piezoelectric substrate is larger than the thickness of the second piezoelectric substrate. When a side of the second surface of the sealing member is defined as an upper side and a side of the first surface of the sealing member is defined as a lower side, the thickness of the sealing member located above the first piezoelectric substrate is smaller than the thickness of the sealing member located above the second piezoelectric substrate. The first piezoelectric substrate and the impression do not overlap each other in a plan view from the second surface.

  • Patent number: 9589552
    Abstract: Provided is a percussion instrument capable of enhancing the expressiveness of performance. A struck surface plate that vibrates to produce a musical sound when struck is disposed on a case, and a sound emission hole is formed to penetrate the struck surface plate. A musical signal is generated by a sound source device according to detection results of percussion sensors that detect the vibration caused by the striking on the struck surface plate. A sounding body produces an electronic musical sound based on the musical signal generated by the sound source device. Because the sounding body is disposed in the case, the musical sound produced by the vibration of the case and the electronic musical sound can be produced from the one case. Accordingly, the expressiveness of the performance using the percussion instrument can be enhanced.
