Abstract

The invention relates to an electrothermal drive outer rotor stepping micro-motor, which comprises electrothermal actuators and a ring wheel rotor. The electrothermal actuators are flexible cold and hot arm electrothermal actuators and can make arc-shaped reciprocating motion. The rotor is a ring wheel and is supported on a substrate through anti-sticking bumps. The direction of the rotor in perpendicular to the substrate is constrained by constraint covers. Ratchets are arranged on the inner wall of the rotor. Gear teeth are arranged on the outer wall of the rotor. The micro-motor is driven by the electrothermal actuators and has the characteristics of large output torque, low rotating speed, small operating voltage, IC (integrated circuit) voltage compatibility and adjustable rotating speed. Since the micro-motor is fabricated by adopting the MEMS (micro-electromechanical system) surface silicon technology, the micro-motor is not required to be assembled, the structure is simple and the micro-motor can be used in the fields of medical treatment, military, aerospace, biomedicine and the like.
