High-stability piezoelectric oscillator
View Patent ↗There is provided a high-stability piezoelectric oscillator. The high-stability piezoelectric oscillator includes an oscillating circuit unit that has a piezoelectric vibrator and oscillating circuit components, an inner oven that accommodates the oscillating circuit unit, an outer oven that accommodates the inner oven, and an outer metallic case that covers the outer oven. Further, airtightness is ensured inside and outside the outer metallic case. Furthermore, at least one of the outer oven and the inner oven is airtightly sealed.
1. A high-stability piezoelectric oscillator comprising:
an oscillating circuit unit that has a piezoelectric vibrator and oscillating circuit components;
an inner oven that accommodates the oscillating circuit unit;
an outer oven that accommodates the inner oven; and
an outer metallic case that is separate from and accommodates the outer oven, airtightness being ensured inside and outside the outer metallic case,
wherein at least one of the outer oven and the inner oven is airtightly sealed; and
wherein a material having higher heat conductivity than a metallic material for forming the inner oven is used as a metallic material for forming the outer oven.
2. high-stability piezoelectric oscillator according to claim 1 ,
wherein at least one of a bonding portion between an outer lower case member and an outer upper case member, which form the outer oven, and a bonding portion between an inner lower case member and an inner upper case member, which form the inner oven, is airtightly sealed by using an epoxy resin or solder as a sealant.
3. A high-stability piezoelectric oscillator comprising:
an oscillating circuit unit that has a piezoelectric vibrator and oscillating circuit components;
an inner oven that accommodates the oscillating circuit unit;
an outer oven that accommodates the inner oven; and
an outer metallic case that is separate from and accommodates the outer oven, wherein the outer oven is made of a thin metallic material so as to decrease a heat capacity, and
the inner oven is made of a thick metallic material in a block shape so as to increase a heat capacity; and
wherein a material having higher heat conductivity than a metallic material for forming the inner oven is used as a metallic material for forming the outer oven.
