Vibrating gyro element, support structure of vibrating gyro element, and gyro sensor
First Claim
1. A vibrating gyro element comprising in the same plane:
- a base portion having opposite ends with opposite corners on each of the opposite ends and having opposite sides;
a pair of vibrating arms for detection extended out of the base portion from both ends in a straight line shape;
a pair of connecting arms extended-out from the base portion from said opposite sides in directions perpendicular to the vibrating arms for detection;
additional pairs of vibrating arms for driving with each pair extending out from a tip portion of each of the connecting arms in a direction parallel to the pair of vibrating arms;
four beams extending out from the opposite corners on both ends of the base portion with each beam having a configuration substantially conforming to the letter “
S”
; and
a support portion connected to the tip portion of each each of the beams;
wherein each of the beams is once extended out of the base portion in a direction approximately perpendicular to the extending-out direction of the pair of connecting arms.

Abstract
A vibrating gyro element includes in the same plane a base portion; a pair of vibrating arms for detection extended out of the base portion on both sides in a straight line shape; a pair of connecting arms extended-out from the base portion onto both sides in directions perpendicular to the vibrating arms for detection; a pair of vibrating arms for driving each extended-out from the tip portion of each of the connecting arms to both sides perpendicularly to this tip portion; four beams extended out of the base portion; and a support portion connected to the tip of each of the beams; wherein each of the beams is once extended out of the base portion in a direction approximately perpendicular to the extending-out direction of the vibrating arm for driving.
