Disclosed is an optical disk handling system 124), called an autochanger, having two control systems (150Y, 150Z) to provide the six motions necessary to move optical disk cartridges from storage holding cells to an optical drive. The system uses shaft encoders (62, 72) on two motors (60, 70) of the two control systems, and current or voltage feedback from the motors, for all positioning, and for detecting the location of the mechanisms during, and at the end of, moves. The shaft encoders (62, 72) are used to position a mechanism close to the eventual move location, then motor current or voltage feedback is used to determine the opposition to the movement of the mechanism, which tells the control system whether the mechanism has reached its destination. A human operator can enter a cartridge into the system through a mailslot (41), which is rotatable to properly receive or eject cartridges. The control systems use a flip assembly (49) in the autochanger to turn the cartridge over, allowing either side of the disk to be arranged for reading or writing by the optical drive. The control systems use a lateral displacement assembly (51) to move a cartridge from a cell in one of the two columns of the autochanger to a cell in the other column, or to move a cartridge between the optical drive, which is located in one of the columns, to a cell in the other column. The control systems use a cartridge engaging assembly (45) to attach to an exposed end portion of a cartridge positioned in a cell or the optical drive. A longitudinal displacement assembly (47) is used by the control systems to move the cartridge, after attachment, out of the cell or optical drive. After positioning the cartridge vertically and laterally, the longitudinal displacement assembly (47) is then used to move the cartridge into a cell or the optical drive, where the engaging assembly (45) releases the cartridge. An important aspect of the invention is that the longitudinal displacement assembly (47), the flip assembly (49), the lateral displacement assembly (51), the engagement assembly (45), and the mailslot assembly (41) are operated by one of the two control systems. The other of the two control systems is used for vertical displacement of the cartridge.

Eine vorrichtung zur Steuerung zweidimensionaler Be wegungen enthält eine Matrix aus mehreren, sich kreuzen den und voneinander isolierten Leiterbahnen, die in x- und y-Richtung eines, vorzugsweise rechtwinkligen Koordinaten systems verlaufen. Dabei liegen die in x-Richtung verlaufen den Leiterbahnen an einer Wechselspannung, deren Fre quenz sich von der Wechselspannungsfrequenz der in y-Richtung verlaufenden Leiterbahnen unterscheidet. Weiter ist ein Signalaufnehmer mit mindestens zwei, vorzugsweise drei Elektroden versehen, der in einer der Matrix parallelen Ebene über die Matrix beweglich angebracht ist. Die Bewe gung des Signalaufnehmers ist mit der zu steuernden Bewegung gekoppelt. Die aus den Elektroden während der Bewegung über die Matrix erzeugten Signale werden zur Richtungs- und Wegbestimmung der zu steuernden Bewe gung ausgewertet.
摘要:
A driving unit (1-5) is controlled on the basis of instructions from a control panel (2-1), and the automatic sweeping is done by transferring in a stepped manner or continuously the transfer means (1-3), (1-4), (1-5) which are adapted to move an object-carrying holder (1-2) under an object lens of a microscope two-dimensionally. Various data, such as position data, are printed, memorized and displayed by controlling a printer, a memory and a display so that, when the automatic sweeping is interrupted, manual sweeping is rendered possible immediately, the position of the object detected by a position detector being stored in the memory. When the automatic sweeping is resumed, the sweeping is resumed returning to and starting from a position in which the automatic sweeping was interrupted. When the memorization number is keyed in from the control panel, the holder (1-2) is moved directly to the memory position and, when coordinates other than the memory position are inputted from the control panel, the holder (1-2) is moved directly to the position of the coordinates. The above-described arrangement allows to provide a microscope provided with an automatic sweep device, which is adapted to observe cells and microorganisms on a prepared specimen.

First, second and third compensation signals are generated from the information on the position and speed of the first servo system having a speed control loop as a minor loop. The speed error of the speed control loop of the second servo system which has the speed control loop as a minor loop and uses a signal obtained by sampling the position detection signal, executing a digital calculation process on the sampled signal to obtain a speed signal and integrating the speed signal as a position command signal or a signal obtained by sampling the position detection signal of the first servo system and executing a digital calculation process on the sampled signal as a position command signal is compensated by the first, second and third compensation signals. Thus, even in cases where the acceleration and deceleration of the first servo system are executed even at constant power, positional synchronizing error is not generated. The accurate positional synchronizing control between two servo systems having different response characteristics can be achieved.

The apparatus comprises a base having orthogonal horizontal longitudinal axis, horizontal transversal axis and vertical axis, and a tool spindle having a motor and a lens surfacing tool mounted on a rotatable arbour of the motor. The apparatus also comprises a lens holder having a chuck for retaining an ophthalmic lens with a perimeter thereof defining a plane being substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis. A first linear slide is affixed to the base and has a first movable support and a first actuator for moving the first movable support along the longitudinal axis. A second linear slide is also affixed to the base and has a second movable support supporting the lens holder and a second actuator for moving the second movable support and the lens holder along the transversal axis. A rotary table is affixed to the first movable support and supports the tool spindle. The rotary table has a third actuator for rotating the rotary table about the vertical axis. A computer is provided for simultaneously controlling displacements of the first, second and third actuators, whereby the first, second and third actuators are operable in a compound mode for enhancing the precision of the movements of the lens surfacing tool in a direction normal to the ophthalmic lens.
