A sound conversion efficiency and a sound quality is improved. Included are an oscillating element that is expanded and contracted in response to a drive signal, two oscillating bodies that are positioned on opposite sides across the oscillating elements, have end faces arranged respectively in contact with both ends of the oscillating element in an expanding and contracting direction, and are oscillated by expansion and contraction of the oscillating element, and an urging spring that urges the two oscillating bodies and press the end faces against both the ends, respectively. Thus, the oscillating element is expanded and contracted, and the oscillating bodies are oscillated with the end faces of the oscillating bodies urged by the urging spring being in contact with both the ends of the oscillating element in the expanding and contracting direction of the oscillating element.
