Abstract

See full text

There is provided a vibration generator that permits to operate by following a mechanical resonance point. The vibration generator 1 has a vibration generation portion 2 having an electromagnetic coil 13 and a magnet 11 float-fixed by a spring member 12. The electromagnetic coil 13 is square-wave driven to obtain vibration force. The vibration generator 1 comprises a driving control portion 10 for detecting a driving voltage of the electromagnetic coil 13 at a predetermined constant interval. By the driving control portion 10, a driving frequency of the electromagnetic coil 13 is made high when an induced voltage waveform of the driving voltage is of rightward increase type, and the driving frequency is made low when the induced voltage waveform is of leftward increase. This permits the driving frequency of the electromagnetic coil to be shifted to a resonance frequency of the vibration generation portion 2. Consequently, driving of the electromagnetic coil 13 can follow a mechanical resonance point so that an sufficiently large vibration can be obtained.
