Tiltable-body apparatus, and method of fabricating the same
The tiltable-body apparatus including a frame member, a tiltable body, and a pair of torsion springs having a twisting longitudinal axis. The torsion springs are disposed along the twisting longitudinal-axis opposingly with the tiltable body being interposed, support the tiltable body flexibly and rotatably about the twisting longitudinal axis relative to the frame member, and include a plurality of planar portions, compliant directions of which intersect each other when viewed along a direction of the twisting longitudinal axis. A center of gravity of the tiltable body is positioned on the twisting longitudinal axis of the torsion springs.
1. A tiltable-body apparatus comprising:
a frame member; a planar tiltable-body; and
a pair of torsion springs having a twisting longitudinal axis, said torsion springs being disposed along the twisting longitudinal axis opposingly with said tiltable body being interposed, said torsion springs supporting said tiltable body flexibly and rotatably about the twisting longitudinal axis relative to said frame member, said each torsion spring including a plurality of separate planar portions, longitudinal axes of which are set parallel to each other, and compliant directions of said separate planar portions intersecting each other when viewed along a direction of the twisting longitudinal axis.
