Claim:
A crystal device for surface mounting configured such that: at least a crystal element is housed in a ceramic case, which has a rectangular shape in a plan view, and which cross section including a bottom wall and a frame wall is formed to be concave; and a metal cover, which is smaller than an outline of a metal ring, and outer circumference four corners of which are formed into arc-formed curved portions with a radius of curvature r 2 , is jointed to the metal ring, which is provided to an end face of an opening of the ceramic case, and outer circumference four corners of which are formed into arc-formed curved portions with a radius of curvature r 1 , by seam welding, wherein the crystal device for surface mounting satisfies relationships A 2 /A 1 <C 2 /C 1 and B 2 /B 1 <D 2 /D 1 , where a ratio between a length A 1 of a long side of the metal ring and a length A 2 of a straight portion of the long side except for the curved portions of the outer circumference four corners of the metal ring is A 2 /A 1 , and a ratio between a length B 1 of a short side of the metal ring and a length B 2 of a straight portion of the short side except for the curved portions of the outer circumference four corners of the metal ring is B 2 /B 1 , and where a ratio between a length C 1 of a long side of the metal cover and a length C 2 of a straight portion of the long side except for the curved portions of the outer circumference four corners of the metal cover is C 2 /C 1 , and a ratio between a length D 1 of a short side of the metal cover and a length D 2 of a straight portion of the short side except for the curved portions of the outer circumference four corners of the metal cover is D 2 /D 1 .
