  • Method for controlling the angular position of a stepper motor
    Patent number: 7750589
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for controlling the angular position [STP_POS] of a stopless rotatably movable member [1] of a stepper motor, the said movable member [1] being designed to interact with at least one fixed member [2] whose state is capable of being modified during the rotation of the movable member [1] according to parameters [CAM_POS] previously defined according to the angular position [STP_POS] of the movable member [1]. The method comprises a step of testing the correspondence [18] of the state of the fixed member [2] with the parameters [CAM_POS] of the predefined modifications, in a mode in which the position of the motor [STP_POS] is considered to be defined.
