  • Publication number: 20230129459
    Abstract: A three-dimensional additive manufacturing device appropriately detects a manufacturing abnormality. The three-dimensional additive manufacturing device includes a powder supply unit that supplies powder, a light irradiation unit that irradiates the powder with a light beam to melt and harden the powder to manufacture a layered structure, an imaging unit that captures an image of a manufacturing site including a molten pool formed of a molten powder, a result acquisition unit that acquires a determination result as to whether manufacturing of the layered structure is abnormal by inputting the image to a learning model, and an information output unit that outputs information based on the determination result. The learning model is obtained by machine-learning a correspondence relationship between an image of the manufacturing site at the time of abnormality and an abnormality type of the image, and is used for determining whether the manufacturing of the layered structure is abnormal.

  • Publication number: 20230117445
    Abstract: A three-dimensional additive manufacturing device manufactures a layered structure by supplying powder for manufacturing the layered structure while changing the positional relationship between a discharge port from which the powder is discharged and the layered structure. The three-dimensional additive manufacturing device includes: a powder supply unit that supplies powder from the discharge port toward the layered structure; a light irradiation unit that irradiates the powder with a light beam to melt and harden the powder to thereby manufacture the layered structure; an imaging unit that captures an image of the manufacturing site where the layered structure is being manufactured; a distance detector that detects a distance from the manufacturing site to the powder supply unit on the basis of the image; and a feedback controller that adjusts a moving speed of the powder supply unit relative to the layered structure on the basis of a detection result of the distance.

  • Patent number: 10605627
    Abstract: A transmission winding portion having a positive-polarity loop and a negative-polarity loop alternately formed so as to partially overlap with each other in the extending direction of a scale, arrangement of the positive-polarity loop and the negative-polarity loop being adjusted such that the positive-polarity loop and the negative-polarity loop on both sides with respect to the intermediate position in the longitudinal direction of the transmission winding portion are inverted; a first reception winding that covers the transmission winding portion in the width direction of the scale, that has a length, corresponding to the cycle of the cycle pattern of the transmission winding portion, and that is formed into a rectangular pattern; a second reception winding having a shape symmetrical to the first reception winding with respect to the intermediate position in the longitudinal direction of the transmission winding portion.

  • Publication number: 20170144238
    Abstract: The present invention improves the calculation accuracy of the phase of gear teeth. This method for calculating a phase of teeth of a gear, the gear having Z number of teeth, includes: a gear teeth amplitude signal acquiring step of acquiring a gear teeth amplitude signal (S(c)) corresponding to at least one revolution of the gear, the gear teeth amplitude signal (S(c)) being formed by an association of an angle (c) of the gear and a value corresponding to irregularities on an outer circumference of the gear within the angle (c); a phase calculating step of calculating a phase (B) of an angular pitch (P) of the gear in accordance with the number (Z) of teeth when the gear teeth amplitude signal (S(c)) is subjected to frequency decomposition; and a gear meshing angle calculating step of calculating a gear meshing angle on the basis of the phase (B) detected by the phase calculating unit.

  • Patent number: 9291480
    Abstract: A control unit of a linear scale includes: excitation current supplying device for causing excitation currents each having two different angular frequencies to flow through slider coils; sampling device for sampling induced voltage V induced in a scale coil, at a timing of t=(2j+1)?/(2?) (j: an integer); position detecting device for calculating Va(j) which is a sum of samples of the induced voltage at multiple sampling points, calculating an excitation position ? at which the Va(j) is equal to 0, and setting the ? as a detected position X; and abnormality detecting device for calculating Vb(j) which is a sum of absolute values of the induced voltage at multiple sampling points, comparing the Vb(j) with a threshold value, and determining that the electromagnetic induction type position detector is in an abnormal state when the Vb(j) is equal to or lower than the threshold value.
