Abstract
An ultrasonic motor is provided that includes a stator having a vibrator and first to fourth piezoelectric elements, a rotor, and a wiring member including an insulating substrate and first and second wirings. The piezoelectric elements are dispersedly arranged along the circumferential direction of a traveling wave circulating around an axial direction so that the traveling wave is generated by the vibrator being vibrated. The first and third piezoelectric elements face each other across the center of a traveling wave. The first wiring is electrically connected to the first and third piezoelectric elements, and the second wiring is electrically connected to the second and fourth piezoelectric elements. The second wiring passes over the third piezoelectric element from the second piezoelectric element side and extends toward the side of fourth piezoelectric element.
