Abstract
The invention provides a method of sealing piezoelectric devices with covers capable of rapidly and securely sealing a plurality of packages or many packages of piezoelectric devices with covers. A piezoelectric device includes a package in which a piezoelectric vibrating reed is partially supported and fixed, and a cover fixed to the packages. In a method of sealing the packages with the covers, a plurality of the packages are arranged with the bottoms facing halogen lamps, so that the bottoms are irradiated with the light beams from the halogen lamps to thermally melt a brazing material disposed between the packages and the covers.
