Abstract

A piezoelectric sounding component includes a diaphragm that includes a metal plate and a piezoelectric body formed on the metal plate. The diaphragm bends and vibrates according to application of voltage to the piezoelectric body. A casing includes a bottom wall, side walls which, in combination with the diaphragm define a sound chamber. The diaphragm is supported by a support portion formed in the casing such that outer peripheral edges of the diaphragm are spaced from inner surfaces of the casing. A terminal is located on the casing and is electrically connected to the diaphragm. At least two elastic adhesives join the diaphragm to the casing and respective conductive adhesives extend over its associated elastic adhesive from the diaphragm to a respective terminal. A frame-like sealing portion seals a gap between the outer peripheral edge of the diaphragm and the inner surfaces of the casing. A recessed portion is formed in a portion of the support portion facing the terminal such that the first elastic adhesive extends over the recessed portion.
