ABSTRACT:
In a vibration wave motor, piezo-electric elements are provided in two orthogonal planes in the lengthwise direction of a bar-like vibration member and when a predetermined electric field is applied to these piezo-electric elements, rotational movement is generated in the surface of the vibration member in a plane perpendicular to the lengthwise direction of the vibration member, whereby a rotational member bearing against the vibration member is rotated and mechanical energy corresponding to supplied electric energy is taken out of the rotational member.
