VIBRATION GENERATING APPARATUS AND PICKUP SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18202974 titled 'VIBRATION GENERATING APPARATUS AND PICKUP SYSTEM
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a vibration generating apparatus that is used to move a workpiece on a mounting surface.
- The apparatus includes a trough on which the workpiece is mounted, two plate springs that support the trough, and a vibration generation unit.
- The vibration generation unit causes the trough to vibrate by elastically deforming the plate springs.
- As a result of the vibration, the workpiece on the mounting surface is moved.
- The two plate springs are positioned along the movement directions of the workpiece.
- Each plate spring has bent portions that project in the same direction as the movement directions of the workpiece.
