ABSTRACT:
A piezoelectric electroacoustic transducer includes a substantially rectangular piezoelectric diaphragm having an internal electrode, a plurality of laminated piezoelectric ceramic layers having the internal electrode interposed between two of the piezoelectric ceramic layers, principal-surface electrodes disposed on top and bottom principal surfaces of the piezoelectric diaphragm, the piezoelectric diaphragm generating surface bending-vibrations in response to application of an alternating signal between the principal-surface electrodes and the internal electrode, a resin film that is larger than the piezoelectric diaphragm and having the piezoelectric diaphragm affixed onto substantially a central portion of a front surface thereof, and a housing having a support for supporting the outer periphery of the resin film. The resin film has heat resistance at least a reflow-soldering temperature and at least one undulated portion bending in the front and rear directions thereof and formed in the outer periphery thereof, and the perimeter of the resin film including the four corners thereof is fixed to the support of the housing by adhesion.
