A biaxial tilting device includes: a frame body; and a tilting and driving mechanism configured to drive a member to be tilted so as to be tilted in the frame body, wherein, in an XYZ orthogonal coordinate system, the frame body includes a first gimbal frame opposed to two of the side surfaces of the member to be tilted, each extending in a Y-Z plane direction, and a second gimbal frame opposed to other two of the side surfaces of the member to be tilted, each extending in an X-Z plane direction, and wherein the first gimbal frame is coupled to an external member, the second gimbal frame is coupled to the member to be tilted in a tillable manner, and the first gimbal frame and the second gimbal frame are coupled to each other in a tiltable manner.

Biaxial tilting device, camera device, and electronic apparatus

An optical member supporting device is described that includes, in an XYZ rectangular coordinate system, spherical bodies, a first holding portion and a second holding portion, an optical member held by the first holding portion or the second holding portion, first yokes protruding from the first holding portion facing the second holding portion, and second yokes protruding from the second holding portion facing the first holding portion and opposed to the first yokes in a predetermined direction in the X-Y direction. The first holding portion and second holding portion extend in an X-Y direction and are opposed in a Z direction with the spherical body interposed therebetween. The second holding portion includes a second magnet and the first yokes and the second yokes are opposed to the second magnet in the Z direction.

Optical member supporting device, optical member driving device, camera device and electronic apparatus

A piezoelectric driving device includes: a driving portion to be brought into frictional contact with an object to be driven, which is moved with respect to a fixed body; and at least two piezoelectric portions, which are formed integrally with the driving portion, are arranged on a predetermined plane with the driving portion being sandwiched between the at least two piezoelectric portions, and are configured to be bent with respect to the predetermined plane when voltages are applied to the at least two piezoelectric portions, wherein outer edges of entirety of the at least two piezoelectric portions are fixed to the fixed body.

Piezoelectric driving device, optical member driving device, camera device, and electronic apparatus

Provided is an image shooting device and an electronic apparatus, which enable suppression of shaking of a camera unit. The image shooting device () includes: a camera unit (); and a holder () configured to movably support the camera unit (), wherein the holder () includes a power transmission-side coil (), and the camera unit () includes a power reception-side coil (), and wherein the power transmission-side coil () and the power reception-side coil () are opposed to each other across a space therebetween.

Image shooting device and electronic apparatus

Provided is a biaxial tilting device, a camera device, and an electronic apparatus, which enable suppression of shaking of a camera unit. A biaxial tilting device includes: a frame body including a back plate opposed to a bottom surface of a member to be tilted across a space; a plurality of suspension springs made of a shape memory alloy, which are configured to connect the bottom surface and the back plate to each other; and a current supply control unit configured to supply currents to the plurality of suspension springs.

A position detecting device includes a coil and a conductive member. The coil is formed within a surface being directed so that an M direction orthogonal to an L direction which is the moving direction thereof coincides with the normal direction thereof and has a meander wiring part. The meander wiring part has turning sections formed at ends thereof and turning width parts extending from the both ends of each turning section. Each turning width part has straight section extending in parallel to each other. The conductive member confronts against the coil with a space therebetween in the M direction, an edge of the conductive member is configured to be confronted against the straight section of the meander wiring part and extended along the non-parallel direction with respect to the extending direction of the straight section and the L direction to traverse a plurality of straight sections.
