To provide a method of manufacturing a vibrating type driving device that can reduce creeping-up of an adhesive to a vibrating shaft.
The vibrating type driving device 1 includes an electromechanical conversion element 2 expanded/contracted when voltage is applied thereto; the vibrating shaft 3 bonded at one end to the electromechanical conversion element 2 and axially displaced by the expansion/contraction of the electromechanical conversion element 2; and a friction engaging member 4 frictionally engaged with the vibrating shaft 3 in a slidingly displaceable manner. In the method of manufacturing the vibrating type driving device 1, the vibrating shaft 3 is bonded to the electromechanical conversion element 2 by applying the adhesive to the end face of the electromechanical conversion element 2, spraying compressed gas to the adhesive to spread out the adhesive, arranging the vibrating shaft 3 on the spread adhesive, and hardening the adhesive.
