A method is provided for detecting a position, comprising the steps of: producing two-phase sinusoidal wave signals having a 90.degree.-spatial phase difference therebetween upon movement of a moving object; detecting the current voltage V.sub.a and V.sub.b of the two-phase sinusoidal wave signals and calculating a value of .alpha. making a value of V zero, given by V=V.sub.a .multidot.cos.alpha.-V.sub.b .multidot.sin.alpha.; determining the value of .alpha. so that polarities of sin.alpha. and cos.alpha. for the calculated .alpha. coincide with those of V.sub.a and V.sub.b, respectively; and detecting a moving position of the moving object by using the value of .alpha. determined in the preceding step as absolute position data within 1 cycle of the 2-phase signals. According to the above method for detecting a position, the absolute position of a moving object can be detected with a high resolution.

A six-axis force sensor includes a pair of members, and at least three legs scatteringly disposed between the pair of members on the periphery of the members. Each leg includes a T-shaped leg consisting of a cross beam supported at both ends thereof by one of the pair of members and extending on the periphery of the member in a circumferential direction, and a vertical beam extending from the center of the cross beam to a direction perpendicular to the cross beam and connected to the other of the pair of members. The strains on the legs are detected by first single-axis-type strain gauges and second single-axis-type strain gauges. A first single-axis-type strain gauge is attached to a surface of the cross beam facing the side opposite to the vertical beam or a surface of the cross beam facing the vertical beam, so as to be able to detect a strain generated in the cross beam in a longitudinal axis direction thereof, and a second single-axis-type strain gauge is attached to a side surface of the vertical beam facing in a circumferential direction, so as to be able to detect a strain generated in the vertical beam in a longitudinal axis direction thereof.

A cooling device for a semiconductor component which increases mechanical strength thereof and reduces a pressure loss of coolant. Plate members constituting the cooling device are formed with flow passages such as coolant supply and discharge openings, grooves divided by ridges, and through portions separated by projections or partitions. The ridges, projections, and partitions are joined to a adjacent plate member to increase the joining strength, which is further increased by forming the ridges, projections, and partitions of different plate members at the same positions. In the case of laminating the plate members having surfaces formed with solder layers, a number of minute vacant spaces are formed in those joining faces of the plate members which are not formed with passages, etc., and solder filets are formed over the entire joining faces to increase the joining strength. The grooves and through portions can be formed by chemical etching together with outer shapes of the plate members. A plurality of plate members can be fabricated from a single sheet material at a time.

A variable-reluctance motor is driven by means of a driver circuit which is composed of a common switching device and switching devices corresponding to individual phases. The sum (total current i.sub.t) of currents flowing through coils for the individual phases is detected. The duty ratio of a PWM signal for turning on and off the common switching device is computed in accordance with the deviation between the total current i.sub.t and a current command i.sub.cmd and the sign (positive or negative) of the deviation. Also, the on-off operation of the switching device corresponding to each phase is controlled depending on the excitation phase based on the rotor electrical angle and on whether the sign of the deviation is positive or negative. In this manner, current loop control is executed so that the detected total current i.sub.t follows up the current command i.sub.cmd. Thus, the current is continuously controlled even during a period for the change of the excitation phase, so that the occurrence of a torque ripple can be restrained.
摘要:
A driving apparatus for controlling the drive of a variable reluctance motor in a manner that an average voltage applied to an exciting coil linearly changes with respect to a current deviation or a current command. If the current deviation or the current command is positive or zero, a first transistor of a driving circuit is switched ON by a signal selector circuit in dependence upon a PWM signal from a PWM circuit. A polarity determination signal from a polarity determining circuit, and an output from an ON-OFF signal generating circuit. The PWM signal is generated in dependence upon an output of an absolute value circuit. A second transistor is turned ON and OFF in accordance with the PWM signal while the output of the circuit is at a high level, so that a positive line voltage and a zero voltage are alternately generated across a coil. If the current deviation is negative, the second transistor is turned OFF by the signal selector circuit, and the first transistor is turned ON and OFF in accordance with an inverted PWM signal while the output of the circuit is at a high level, so that a negative line voltage and a zero voltage are alternately generated across the coil. Thus, a desired relationship is maintained between a driving circuit ON-OFF duty ratio, corresponding to the current deviation or the current command, and the voltage to be applied to the motor, so that the average coil voltage changes linearly with respect to the current deviation or the current command, to facilitate appropriate motor control.

An absolute position encoder outputs position data as absolute data. When a power supply is turned on, absolute position data is read from an absolute code pattern (6) and is set in a counter (14). Thereafter, the counter (14) effects counting of incremental pulses read from an incremental code pattern (7) and increments the contents of the counter (14). Accurate absolute data referenced upon startup to the absolute code pattern can thus be output even during a high speed rotation.

In an acceleration/deceleration control system of a servo motor, an acceleration/deceleration control section (5) has a low-pass filter (4) of second or higher order when an exponential acceleration/deceleration system is used, and the acceleration/deceleration section (5) has a linear acceleration/deceleration section (3) and the low-pass filter (4) of second or higher order connected to the output of the linear acceleration/deceleration section (3) when a linear acceleration/deceleration system is used. A position instruction (Pa) is filtered through the low-pass filter (4) of second or higher order, and a filtered signal is supplied to a servo control section (6), thereby driving the servo motor (M).

A rotor rotational position detector for a motor is provided which is capable of detecting an absolute rotation position of a rotor shaft of the motor for one revolution of the rotor shaft. The detector also detects, simultaneously with the absolute detection, a rotor magnetic pole rotational position for motor driving control.The absolute rotational position of the rotor shaft in one revolution of the rotor shaft is detected and a coded signal (a), representative of the detected position, is output. The coded signal (a) is converted into a rotor magnetic position signal (b) for motor driving control by a code converting circuit (5), and is outputted therefrom.

A robot control unit (10) having a designated speed adjusting means for adjusting a designated speed, which is contained in a robot command program, to a value not more than the designated speed, comprises: a decoding means (38) for decoding a movement stopping command of stopping a movement of the robot (1) according to a force detection value detected by a force sensor (2) attached to a wrist of the robot (1); a movement command means (36) for generating a movement command of moving the robot by the designated speed in the designated direction contained in the program without activating the designated speed adjusting means; a force calculation means (31) for calculating a change in a force detection value from a reference value as a present force value; and a comparison means (32) for comparing a present force value, which is repeatedly calculated at a predetermined period by the force calculation means, with a predetermined force designated value while the robot is moving. When the present force value is not less than the designated force value, the movement command means stops the robot. Due to the foregoing, a force applied from the outside to the robot can be highly sensitively detected and the robot can be highly accurately stopped.
