  • Patent number: 9638298
    Abstract: The drive source of a feeder (111) is utilized to drive a feed error correction device for correcting error in feeding a moving body caused by extension of linear bodies (161A, 161B) of the feeder. With the feeder (111) running, when extension at or above a predetermined value occurs in the linear bodies (161A, 161B), a guide unit (171) including a driven rotating wheel (172) for the linear bodies tows (or displaces) through power received from the drive source of the feeder, bringing the linear bodies (161A, 161B) into a state of appropriate tension. The guide unit (171) receives transmission of power in one direction only and appropriately tows the linear bodies (161A, 161B), thereby cancelling extension of the linear bodies at or above the predetermined value.

  • Patent number: 8056702
    Abstract: There is equipped with a forward and reverse winder (31), a forwardly winding liner body (51), a reversely winding liner body (61) and a reciprocating body (71). The forwardly winding linear body (51) and the reversely winding linear body (61) are connected to the reciprocating body (71). The amounts of winding and rewinding the forwardly and reversely winding linear bodies (51) (61) by the winding drum (37) of the forward and reverse winder are equal to each other. The winding drum (37) of the forward and reverse winder (51) when the forwardly winding linear body (51) is forwardly wound axially moves corresponding to the winding and rewinding pitches of the linear bodies whereby a high precision based on a quiet stabilization of an operation state, durability and miniaturization of construction and a high precision based on proper winding and rewinding of the linear bodies and durability can be improved.

  • Patent number: 7746010
    Abstract: A feeder to be able to meet the requirements of positioning accuracy, long distance conveyance, remote conveyance, controllability, high precision feeding, high speed feeding, inexpensiveness, simplicity of construction, space saving, weight reduction, measure for dusting and safety for accident for being provided for multiple utilizations. This feeder comprises a forward winder (21), a reverse winder (31), a forwardly winding liner body (51), a reversely winding liner body (61) and a reciprocating body (71). The forwardly winding linear body and the reversely winding linear body are connected to the reciprocating body. The forward winder on winding rotation and the reverse winder on rewinding rotation rotate in synchronism and phase with each other in the same or reverse direction. The amount of winding the forwardly winding linear body by the forward winder and the amount of rewinding the reversely winding linear body by the reverse winder are equal to each other.
