<p>A small vibrating gyroscope that isolates or traps torsional vibration of a vibrator so that the vibrator can vibrate in an expected vibration mode in a process of detecting a rotational angular velocity is provided. A vibrating gyroscope 10 includes a tuning-fork vibrator 12 having a base 12a and legs 12b. The vibrator 12 is joined to a support plate 26a by conductive adhesive members 24. The support plate 26a includes an outer frame portion 28 in which a joining portion 32 is formed at a position near a longitudinal end of the outer frame portion 28. The joining portion 32 is supported by a first support portion 34 in the air gap portion 30. The width of the first support portion 34 is smaller than the width of the joining portion 32. The vibrator 12 is joined to the joining portion 32 of the support plate 26a.</p>
