ABSTRACT:
A strain generating element for generating a strain in accordance with an externally provided driver voltage, a diaphragm secured to one end surface of the strain generating element and having a projecting portion, a case for encasing the strain generating element therein, a first coupler attached to the case, and a second coupler attached to the other end. A first coupler of a first piezoelectric actuator is connectable to a second coupler of a second piezoelectric actuator so that an elongation of the first actuator is transferred to the second actuator through a projecting portion of the first actuator to thereby add the elongation of the first actuator to an elongation of the second actuator in a uniform direction of elongation.
