A piezoelectric drive unit and a piezoelectric drive element are provided, which are compact and lightweight, and able to be stably displaced and positioned, in addition, efficiently driven even at low voltage. One end of a rod is fixed to an approximate center of a main surface of a piezoelectric drive element (drive element). The drive element is in a configuration where two element structures are incorporated by dividedly forming part of internal electrodes being alternately layered with a plurality of pieces of piezoelectrics, and has two regions divided with the center of the element as an origin. When signal are inputted into the internal electrodes via terminal electrodes such that a phase is shifted by 90 degrees between the two regions, the rod is rotated. When a tip of the rod is biased to be disposed by a spring such that it is pressed to a side face of a shaft for guiding a sliding frame of a lens, the lens slides along the shaft with rotation of the rod. |
