Abstract

See full text

A determination is made whether a moving speed of a slider section with respect to a rod section in a piezoelectric actuator is lower than a predetermined speed. When the moving speed is lower than the predetermined speed, it is considered that a friction-bonded portion between the rod section and the slider section is in a fastened state or a nearly fastened state. A resonance frequency of the piezoelectric actuator or a frequency proximity to the resonance frequency is set as a driving frequency for the piezoelectric actuator. The slider section is moved in a reciprocating manner plural times with respect to the rod section. As a result, an abnormal state is eliminated from the piezoelectric actuator.
