Abstract
A vibratory device includes an elastic plate and a piezoelectric diaphragm. The elastic plate includes a fixable portion, a vibratory portion, and a connection portion. The fixable portion is fixed to a fixation member. The vibratory portion is spaced away from a fixable surface of the fixable portion that faces the fixation member and arranged substantially in parallel with the fixable surface. The connection portion connects a first end of the fixable portion in its planar direction and a first end of the vibratory portion in its planar direction. The piezoelectric diaphragm is disposed on a surface of the vibratory portion that is adjacent to the fixable portion. In a direction N normal to the surface of the vibratory portion adjacent to the fixable portion, at least part of the second piezoelectric diaphragm does not overlap the fixable portion.
