Abstract
Ultrasonic motor working with coupled in-plane and out-of-plane vibration modes of rectangular plate is proposed and experimentally investigated. Thanks to its unique configuration, proposed motor provides large contact area between stator and rotor of motor which can reduce wear and enhance motor life-time. The proposed motor is designed using finite element method and according to the design, a prototype is fabricated and its working characteristics such as speed, normal and driving force and working frequency are measured. Overall dimension of designed prototype is 49 × 14 × 2 mm, working frequency of motor is 49.6 kHz, no-load speed and stall force of motor are 122 rpm and 0.32 mN m at 50 V, respectively.
