Solution Overview
Problem
Existing piezoelectric devices face variations in resonance frequency due to inconsistent adhesive spreading between the sealing plate and the wiring board, affecting the rigidity and vibration characteristics of the vibrating plate.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Strength
If adhesive is used to bond the sealing plate and wiring board, then bonding strength is improved, but resonance frequency stability deteriorates due to variable adhesive spreading
Solution Approach 1:
The patent divides the bonding area into two distinct zones: a first bonding area with sufficient adhesive for strong bonding, and a second bonding area with restricted adhesive to prevent rigidity changes. This segmentation allows the device to achieve both strong bonding and stable resonance frequency by controlling adhesive distribution in different regions.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent applies different adhesive quantities to different regions of the bonding interface. The first bonding area receives adequate adhesive for strong bonding, while the second bonding area receives limited adhesive to maintain the sealing plate's rigidity and vibration characteristics, thus achieving local optimization of both bonding strength and frequency stability.
2Strength
If adhesive spreading range increases, then bonding strength between sealing plate and wiring board is improved, but rigidity of sealing plate deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The bonding area is segmented into a first bonding area where adhesive provides strong bonding, and a second bonding area where adhesive is restricted to preserve rigidity. This spatial segmentation resolves the contradiction between bonding strength and rigidity maintenance.
Solution Approach 2:
Different regions of the bonding interface are given different adhesive characteristics: the first bonding area has high adhesive concentration for strength, while the second bonding area has low adhesive concentration to maintain local rigidity and structural stability.
