Abstract

An actuator comprising: a movable part that can swing around a swing shaft; a connecting part that extends from the movable part and is torsionally deformed in accordance with the swing of the movable part; and A support part supports the said connection part, and the said movable part has a cross shape when it planarly views from the thickness direction of the said movable part.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an actuator, an optical scanner, and an image forming device. Background technique [0002] As an actuator, an actuator using a torsional vibrator is known (for example, refer to Patent Document 1). [0003] For example, in Patent Document 1, there is disclosed a movable plate (movable part), a support frame (support part), and a pair of elastic support parts (connection parts) that support the movable plate so as to be able to twist relative to the support frame. , and each elastic support portion is a light deflector composed of two rods (beam members). [0004] Such a movable plate, a support frame, and a pair of elastic support portions are integrally formed by anisotropically etching a silicon substrate whose main surface is composed of a silicon (100) surface. [0005] In addition, in the optical deflector of Patent Document 1, the movable plate has an octagonal shape in plan view. A movable plate having such a...
