  • Patent number: 4358722
    Abstract: In a speed detector having a fixed frequency oscillator for producing two-phase sine waves to excite two-phase exciting windings of a resolver, first and second multipliers for multiplying the output of the detecting winding of the resolver by the two-phase sine waves respectively, and a position conversion circuit and speed conversion circuit, the speed conversion circuit comprises: a third multiplier for multiplying a signal of the first multiplier by a signal of a VFO; and a fourth multiplier for multiplying a signal of the second multiplier by a signal of the VFO, the outputs of the third and fourth multipliers being applied through a comparator to a proportional integration amplifier, the output of which is used as the rotation speed signal and applied to the VFO, thereby to eliminate the necessity for provision of a countermeasure against harmonics and harmonic noise involved in the use of an integration circuit required when a resolver is used as a detector.

  • Patent number: 4357569
    Abstract: In a control device of an AC motor wherein a torque equivalent to that of a DC motor is created by controlling the instantaneous values of its stator current, or in a vector control device, signals from a position detector such as a resolver coupled to the AC motor are utilized to form stator current instruction signals and to provide rotation position feed-back signals and rotation speed feed-back signals for the AC motor, thereby to perform precise servo-control.
