  • Length measuring device
    Patent number: 6612047
    Abstract: A length measuring device for determining a relative position of two objects, which can be moved relative to each other. The measurement device, includes a carrier body which supports the measurement device and is connected with a contact area with a mounting area of one of the two objects and with a scanning arrangement connected with another one of the two objects and scanning the measurement device along a measurement direction. Wherein a torque on an end face of the carrier body in the measurement direction acts on the carrier body in such a way that the contact area of the carrier body is pressed against the mounting area.
    Type: Grant

  • Method and device for varying interpolation factors
    Patent number: 5920494
    Abstract: A method and device for varying interpolation factor of at least one position-dependent, periodic signal in a position measurement system. The method and device allows switching between one of a specified number of different interpolation factors at a switching time point at which the interpolated measurement signal has an identical signal form for every possible interpolation factor.
