ABSTRACT:
In a device for driving a shutter having a bimorph element displaceable or deformable by the application of a voltage thereto, and so constructed as to open and close the shutter by using the displacing or deforming effect of the bimorph element, the device comprises a first switching means for short-circuiting the bimorph element at a usual time and a second switching means for releasing the bimorph element from the short-circuited state caused by the first switching means only at the time of opening the shutter and at the same time charging the bimorph element with a voltage from an electric source for the bimorph element, so that the shutter can be surely closed at the usual time.
