Abstract

In an electro-acoustic transducerwhich is an oscillator device, center positions of principal surfaces of piezoelectric elementsthat are positioned on both surfaces of an elastic memberare different from each other. As such, since the two piezoelectric elementsare disposed asymmetrically on the upper and lower sides in the electro-acoustic transducer, it is possible to prevent vibrations of reversed phases at the time of divided vibration in which the reversed phases overlap with each other. In other words, since it is possible to prevent the generation of sound waves due to the vibration of local reversed phases, the sound pressure level can be improved.
