<p>The invention concerns a micro-accelerometer characterised in that: it comprises three micro-machined silicon plates (10, 20, 30), welded superposed with inserted insulating layers (15, 25); the middle plate (30) comprises a subassembly (36) sensitive to accelerations, and a peripheral frame (35) electrically insulated from the subassembly and enclosing it; said frame (35) forms a spacer between a bottom plate (10) and a top plate (20) from which it is likewise electrically insulated; the subassembly comprises a leg (37) fixed on the bottom plate (10) and a protruding seismic weight (31) hanging from the leg, an electrical connection being provided between the bottom plate and the subassembly leg; the suspension of the seismic weight comprises a central vibrating beam (32) connected to the seismic weight and to the leg and substantially located in the seismic weight top surface horizontal plane and two short suspending side arms (33) connected to the leg (37) and located on either side of the central beam (32) but in a horizontal plane substantially passing through the seismic weight centre of gravity. The invention is applicable to an aircraft micro-accelerometer for inertia navigation assistance.</p> |
