Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of modulation of quartz tuning forks, and particularly to a modulation device and method for quartz tuning forks. Background Art

[0002] The quartz tuning fork oscillator is the heart component of a quartz electronic watch, and its performance directly affects the quality of the quartz electronic watch. There are many technical indicators required for quartz tuning forks. Among them, the quality factor Q and the equivalent resistance R are one of the main indicators of the quartz oscillator, and the imbalance of the quartz tuning fork is the main factor affecting the quality factor and the equivalent resistance. The quartz tuning fork oscillator utilizes the principle that at any instant of vibration, the vibration forces and torques of the two opposite moving fork arms are balanced with each other to eliminate the action of the resonator on the base, thereby ensuring the frequency accuracy and high Q value of the tuning fork resonator.

[0003] However, due to the limitations of processing accuracy and material uniformity, the vibration parameters of the two arms of the tuning fork cannot be completely consistent, and the mutual balance of the vibration forces and torques of the two fork arms required in principle cannot be fully achieved. In this way, the root of the tuning fork will be subjected to forces and torques, causing the vibration of the tuning fork base. This will not only cause instability of the resonance system frequency, but also inevitably lead to the loss of vibration energy, resulting in a decrease in the quality factor of the tuning fork resonator and an increase in the equivalent resistance.
