Abstract
A piezoelectric blower includes a housing, top plate, side plate, vibrating plate, piezoelectric element, and cap. The top plate, side plate, and vibrating plate define a blower chamber. The top plate includes a vent hole. The vibrating plate and piezoelectric element constitutes a piezoelectric actuator. The cap includes a wall portion facing the piezoelectric actuator and has a disc-shaped suction port. Here, a central axis of the suction port extending along a thickness direction of the wall portion and a central axis of the piezoelectric element extending along the thickness direction of the wall portion do not coincide with each other. An air channel is provided among the housing, the cap, and a joined structure of the top plate, side plate, and piezoelectric actuator.
