VIBRATING MICRO-MECHANICAL SENSOR OF ANGULAR VELOCITY
First Claim
1. A vibrating micro-mechanical sensor of angular velocity comprising at least two seismic mass structures (1), (2), characterized in, that the sensor of angular velocity further comprises excitation structures (3), (4), and coupling seesaw type springs (6), (7) such, that said at least two seismic mass structures (1), (2) are positioned apart, and they are supported to the excitation structures (3), (4) by means of springs (27-30) in such a way, that said excitation structures (3), (4) are supported at least at one end of them to anchoring points (8-11) by means of the coupling seesaw type springs (6), (7).

Abstract
The invention relates to measuring devices used for measuring angular velocity, and more precisely, to vibrating micro-mechanical sensors of angular velocity. The sensor of angular velocity according to the invention comprises at least two seismic mass structures (1), (2), excitation structures (3), (4) and coupling seesaw type springs (6), (7). The objective of the invention is to provide an improved sensor structure, which enables reliable measuring with good efficiency particularly in small vibrating micro-mechanical angular velocity sensor solutions.
