ABSTRACT:
An ultrasonic motor includes piezoelectric resonators for generating vibration waves, an elastic vibration member along which an elastic wave propagates when driving of the piezoelectric resonators is driven, a sliding member located in contact with the elastic vibration member under pressure and adapted to slide along the elastic vibration member when the elastic wave propagates, and a friction member located on the sliding member and brought into frictional contact with the elastic vibration member, the friction member being made of a material having a hardness of less than 100 and larger than 94 measured by a spring A type hardness tester, a hardness of 40 to 120 measured by a Rockwell's R type hardness tester, hardness of 20 to 80 measured by a Rockwell's M type hardness tester, a hardness of 40 to 90 measured by a Shore A type hardness tester, or a hardness of 20 to 70 measured by a Shore D type hardness tester.
