A driving mechanism, a driving device, and a lens driving device includes
a lever member. The lever member includes an arm portion for surrounding
a part of a driven member in a side direction. The arm portion has a
plurality of displacement output portions to be engaged with the driven
member. The lever member is constructed in such a manner that a
displacement amount of the displacement output portions in a
predetermined first axis direction is set larger than a displacement
amount of a displacement input portion to be generated by input of a
moving force to be applied by a shape memory alloy actuator. The driving
mechanism, the driving device, and the lens driving device enable to
obtain a large displacement amount with a reduced size and a reduced
weight, and stably move the driven member.
