ABSTRACT:
An ultrasonic motor with a vibratory body which has plural groove groups formed in a surface of the vibratory body. Each groove group has at least two grooves which are formed parallel to one another. If the vibratory body has an annular shape, a groove forming member having as many cutting members as grooves in each groove group moves in a radial direction of the vibratory body while the cutting members rotate, simultaneously cutting each groove of a groove group in the surface of the vibratory body. When advancing vibratory waves are generated in a circumferential direction of the vibratory body, the state of vibration of the grooves in a groove group differs, and the resonance of the grooves is suppressed. If the vibratory body has a linear shape, the cutting members rotate as the groove forming member moves perpendicular to the vibratory body, simultaneously cutting each groove of a particular groove group.
