ABSTRACT:
A rotative motor includes a member mounted to rotate freely. A pair of piezoelectric bimorph elements are excited from a source of alternating current so that free ends of the respective elements vibrate ninety degrees out of phase. The central point of an elastic member connected between the free ends of the elements is in frictional contact with the rotatable member. The central point exhibits a physical displacement circular in shape, imparting a rotary motion to the rotatable member.
