  • Patent number: 11316418
    Abstract: A rotary encoder includes a rotor and a stator. The rotor and the stator are arranged in the rotary encoder such that, when the rotary encoder is arranged on a machine that includes a shaft having a rotation axis, a rotation of the rotor in relation to the stator about the rotation axis of the shaft is allowed, a relative movement between the rotor and the stator along the rotation axis of the shaft is restricted to a predetermined distance, and a movement of the rotor in relation to the shaft along the rotation axis of the shaft is allowed. Additionally, movement of the stator in relation to the machine along the rotation axis of the shaft may be allowed.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 11243097
    Abstract: A rotary encoder includes a rotor, a stator, and a casting compound. The casting compound has a first surface facing the stator. The first surface has a first predetermined shape and is fixed in relation to the stator. The casting compound has a second surface facing away from the stator, the second surface having a second predetermined shape.

  • Patent number: 9658049
    Abstract: A sensor head for an encoder assembly includes a housing and at least two detectors. The sensor head is intended for scanning directly toward a rotatable encoding member positioned on a carrier ring. The carrier ring is intended to be installed on a shaft of a machine. The detectors are arranged on detector strips are displaceably attached to the housing.

  • Publication number: 20030031532
    Abstract: The invention concerns a system and a method for preferably on-line providing stapled and folded booklets with a square back. The system comprises means (1a, 1b) for feeding a booklet (H) forwardly and in reverse Furthermore, there is a stopper (2a) for stopping a fed-in booklet, two elongated bars (4, 5) adapted to clamp the booklet (H) between them, and displaceable means (9) for engaging a booklet clamped between the elongated bars (4, 5) for lending the back of the booklet square shape. In the method, a booklet (H) is fed in between two elongated bars (4, 5) to a stopper (2a), whereafter the elongated bars (4, 5) clamp the booklet (H), a movable member (9) is urged against the back of the booklet (H) so as to make it square-shaped, the elongated bars (4, 5) are moved apart, and the completed booklet is fed out in reverse.
