no. 1 approach

[0031] figure 1 It is a plan view showing the inertial sensor according to the first embodiment. figure 2 yes figure 1 The A-A line sectional view in. image 3 is the top view of the inertial sensor. Figure 4 and Figure 5 Each is a plan view for explaining the function of the stopper.

[0032] Hereinafter, for convenience of description, three axes orthogonal to each other are referred to as an X axis, a Y axis, and a Z axis. In addition, the direction along the X-axis, that is, the direction parallel to the X-axis is also called "X-axis direction", the direction parallel to the Y-axis is called "Y-axis direction", and the direction parallel to the Z-axis is called "Z-axis direction". Axis Direction". In addition, the front end side in the arrow direction of each axis is also referred to as "positive side", and the opposite side is also referred to as "negative side". In addition, the positive side in the Z-axis direction is also referred to as "up", and the negative...

[0066] Figure 6 It is a plan view showing the inertial sensor according to the second embodiment.

[0067] This embodiment is the same as the aforementioned first embodiment except that the structure of the stopper 4 is different. It should be noted that in the following description, regarding the present embodiment, the description will focus on the differences from the previous embodiment, and the description of the same matters will be omitted. In addition, in Figure 6 In , the same reference numerals are assigned to the same structures as those in the aforementioned embodiment.

[0068] Such as Figure 6 As shown, in the inertial sensor 1 of this embodiment, the second stopper 42 is located outside the movable body 32 and is supported by the support portion 49 together with the first stopper 41 . That is to say, in this embodiment, the first stopper 41 and the second stopper 42 are located outside the movable body 32 together. In addition, corresponding to this, a p...

[0072] Figure 7 It is a plan view showing the inertial sensor according to the third embodiment.

[0073] This embodiment is the same as the aforementioned first embodiment except that the structure of the stopper 4 is different. It should be noted that in the following description, regarding the present embodiment, the description will focus on the differences from the previous embodiment, and the description of the same matters will be omitted. In addition, in Figure 7 In , the same reference numerals are assigned to the same structures as those in the aforementioned embodiment.

[0074] Such as Figure 7 As shown, in the inertial sensor 1 of this embodiment, the first stopper 41 is located inside the movable body 32 . That is to say, the first stopper 41 and the second stopper 42 are located inside the movable body 32 together. Specifically, the movable body 32 has a through hole 329 formed at the front end of the first movable part 321 , and the first stopper 41 is ...

Abstract

The invention relates to an inertial sensor, an electronic device and a movable body. The inertial sensor includes, assuming an X-axis, a Y-axis, and a Z-axis, a substrate, a movable body that swingsaround a swing axis along the Y-axis, a fixed portion that supports the movable body and is fixed to the substrate, and a stopper that is fixed to the substrate and regulates rotational displacement of the movable body around the Z-axis by coming into contact with the movable body, and in which the stopper includes a first stopper facing the movable body along the Y-axis and having a separation distance L1 from the swing axis and a second stopper facing the movable body along the Y-axis and having a separation distance L2 shorter than the separation distance L1 from the swing axis, and the movable body comes into contact with the first stopper and the second stopper simultaneously when the movable body is rotationally displaced.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an inertial sensor, electronic equipment and a mobile body. Background technique [0002] For example, the inertial sensor described in Patent Document 1 is a sensor capable of detecting acceleration in the Z-axis direction, and has a substrate, a movable body that swings in a seesaw manner with respect to the substrate about a swing axis along the Y-axis direction, and a sensor provided on the substrate. Fix the detection electrode. In addition, the movable body has a first movable part and a second movable part. The first movable part and the second movable part are provided with the swing shaft interposed therebetween, and have different rotational moments around the swing shaft. In addition, the fixed detection electrodes include a first fixed detection electrode arranged on the substrate facing the first movable part of the movable parts, and a second fixed detection electrode arranged on the substrate opposite th...
