  • Patent number: 5265188
    Abstract: A control system controls a motor so that a controlled speed is maintained at an object value supplied from an external unit. The control system includes: an operation block for obtaining a difference between the object value and the controlled speed; an integrating block for integrating the difference obtained by the operation block and for outputting an integrated value; a limiting block for outputting a limited value when the integrated value obtained by the integrating block is equal to or greater than the limited value and for outputting the integrated value from the integrating block as it is when the integrated value is less than the limited value; and a control block for maintaining the controlled speed of the motor at the object value based on the integrated value or the limited value output from the limiting unit.

  • Patent number: 5130583
    Abstract: A linear motor that comprises: a stator constituting a running track and having a longitudinal direction; a movable body disposed on the stator and being linearly movable along said longitudinal direction of the stator; an end detection sensor for detecting a state that the movable body is positioned at around an end of the stator; a drive circuit for driving the movable body to move on the stator; a control circuit for controlling the drive circuit and outputting a drive signal to the drive circuit to move and stop the movable body; and an overrun prevention circuit for preventing the movable body from overrunning out of the stator. The overrun prevention circuit is connected from said end detection sensor.
