Publication number: 20190061155Abstract: Provided is a technology which secures safety of a moving body and prevents collision between a robot and the moving body. A detection unit detects a relative positional relationship between a robot arm which is able to move about a support pointy and a moving body by a sensor attached to the robot arm. A control unit generates a drive control signal of an actuator which causes the robot arm to be able to move on the basis of a change in the relative positional relationship between the robot arm and the moving body detected by a detecting unit. An output unit outputs the drive control signal generated by the control unit to the actuator. The control unit generates the drive control signal which changes a speed at which the robot arm is able to move in accordance with the change in the relative positional relationship with the moving body.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 7, 2018Publication date: February 28, 2019Applicant: OMRON CorporationInventors: Minoru HASHIMOTO, Yoshiharu TANI, Kazunori OSAKO, Toshiyuki HIGUCHI, Daichi KAMISONO, Masaki FUJITA

Publication number: 20190006138Abstract: A miniature and inexpensive relay device is provided. A relay device, i.e., a relay unit, includes a breakdown detection unit that does not detect breakdown of an operation of a first switching element and detect breakdown of an operation of a second switching element. When a switching control unit switches an external load circuit from non-conductivity to conductivity, the switching control unit switches the second switching element from non-conductivity to conductivity after switching the first switching element from non-conductivity to conductivity. When the switching control unit switches the load circuit from conductivity to non-conductivity, the switching control unit switches the first switching element from conductivity to non-conductivity after switching the second switching element from conductivity to non-conductivity.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 7, 2018Publication date: January 3, 2019Applicant: OMRON CorporationInventors: Toshiyuki HIGUCHI, Daichi KAMISONO, Tetsuya FUKUMOTO

Patent number: 9007056Abstract: Disclosed is a monitoring device for a rotary encoder electronically connectable to the monitoring device. A pulse generating unit generates a comparison pulse signal by extracting a portion corresponding to a specific phase range from a first pulse included in a first pulse signal output from the rotary encoder. The rotary encoder detects rotation of a rotating body and outputs the first pulse signal and a second pulse signal, the first pulse signal and the second pulse signal having a phase difference from each other. A determining unit determines an abnormality of the rotary encoder, based on a state of a pulse of the comparison pulse signal at a specific timing of a second pulse included in the second pulse signal.Type: GrantFiled: February 26, 2013Date of Patent: April 14, 2015Assignee: OMRON CorporationInventors: Kazunori Okamoto, Teruyuki Nakayama, Minoru Hashimoto, Daichi Kamisono

Patent number: 8779778Abstract: Disclosed is a proximity switch provided with an actuator unit and a sensor unit. The sensor unit is provided with an antenna coil, a transmitting circuit which transmits electromagnetic waves at a constant frequency to the antenna coil, a receiving circuit which detects external signals received by means of the antenna coil, and control circuits. The actuator unit is provided with an antenna coil, a power supply circuit which rectifies an electromotive force generated in the antenna coil, and a signal processing circuit which receives power supply from the power supply circuit, performs frequency-dividing to the signals received by means of the antenna coil, and transmits the signals from the antenna coil after the frequency-dividing. The control circuit of the sensor unit has memory for registering the frequency of the signals transmitted from the actuator unit.Type: GrantFiled: April 27, 2010Date of Patent: July 15, 2014Assignee: OMRON CorporationInventors: Toshiyuki Higuchi, Teruyuki Nakayama, Daichi Kamisono, Satoshi Nishiuchi, Kazunori Okamoto
