Abstract
A tuning fork type gyroscope including plate members spaced apart from each other, vibration elements for vibrating the plate members, suspension members for suspending the plate members, and electrodes arranged in the lower portion of the plate members, wherein the suspension members comprises: main bars connected to the plate members by connection members; fixing members connected to both ends of each of said main bars so as to support the main bars and reduce (a) restoring tensile forces(s) along the length of the main bars; and a supporting member connected to (a) central portion(s) of the main bars so as to support the main bars. The gyroscope reduces the restoring tensile force of the main bars and provides flexibility to the main bars.
