  • Patent number: 9683871
    Abstract: Provided is an optical encoder, including: a light receiving unit; and a scale moving relatively to the light receiving unit and including a first track and a second track each having patterns intended for projecting light onto the light receiving unit, wherein the number of patterns of the first track is Ns*Nd+i (where, Ns and i are an integer of 1 or greater, and Nd is an integer of 2 or greater), and the number of patterns of the second track is (Ns?1)*Nd+i, so an absolute angle of the scale can be calculated in real time and in high resolution.

  • Patent number: 9541908
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a servo motor controller for controlling a servo motor having a current limiting unit, and a tuningless nonlinear control method thereof. According to the present invention, the servo motor controller control method for controlling a servo motor including a current limiting unit comprises the steps of: detecting that the limited current is output according to a current command of the current limiting unit; adjusting a disturbance estimation gain of the servo motor controller in response to the output of the limited current; and generating a control input provided from the servo motor controller to the current limiting unit on the basis of the adjusted disturbance estimation gain.

  • Patent number: 9372100
    Abstract: This disclosure relates to a method for detecting an absolute rotation angle of an optical rotary encoder, and more particularly, to an optical encoder having a signal track for generating a digital pulse which may correct an error when a high-level bit is generated in a Vernier type. The optical encoder according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a master track for generating a sinusoidal signal with the fastest cycle, a Vernier track for generating a sinusoidal signal with a cycle smaller than that of the master track by a predetermined value, and a digital track for generating a digital pulse signal with a cycle proportional to the cycle of the sinusoidal signal of the master track.
