    摘要: A compact vibration cancellation apparatus based on a combination of air springs and electromagnetic actuators with smaller power capacity enables an anti-vibration table to be maintained in a level position even when the center of gravity of the anti-vibration table moves a large distance because of a movement of objective equipment on the table. The vibration cancellation apparatus is operable for isolating floor vibration or for canceling vibration of the objective equipment on the anti-vibration table. The apparatus includes displacement sensors, acceleration sensors, a levitation position control device, a vibration canceling control device, and air spring actuators for supporting four corners of the anti-vibration table by air pressure. The air pressure in each air spring actuator is controlled in response to a change of load which corresponds to a movement of the center of gravity caused by movement of the objective equipment on the anti-vibration table.

    摘要: A magnetic levitation control apparatus comprises a pair of electromagnets for holding a levitated body having a magnetic body in the levitated state. A signal source for supplying a voltage signal of a frequency on a level such that enables the electromagnets to function as the position sensor, wherein a control voltage signal for controlling the magnetic attraction of the electromagnets is superimposed on the voltage signal. A circuit differentially supplies the voltage signal to the pair of electromagnets to form a position signal of the levitated body from an add signal of currents respectively from the electromagnets, and a circuit detects a control current of the electromagnets from a subtraction signal of currents respectively from the electromagnets. A controller generates a control voltage signal of the electromagnets from the detected position signal of the levitated body and, in addition, corrects the position signal detected from the detected control current of the electromagnets.

    摘要: There are disclosed a vibration isolating apparatus and a vibration eliminating method imposed less restrictions on the positioning of components, such as active actuators, forming part of the vibration isolating apparatus. The vibration isolating apparatus can be implemented with a relatively simple controller (such as an analog circuit) and can limit the interference of control forces to a practically ignorable degree. The vibration isolating apparatus has a table for mounting thereon a device vulnerable to vibrations, a plurality of sensors 15-20 for detecting motions of the table and a plurality of active actuators 11-14 for controlling positions of the table. Processing and controlling means converts values measured by the respective sensors and control forces exerted by the respective active actuators to control and operating amounts for motions in a total of six degrees of freedom: one each for translation in the vertical direction and for rotation about the axis of the translation of the device vulnerable to vibrations, resiliently supported by the vibration isolating apparatus, or the table, and two each for translations on a horizontal plane and rotations about the axes of the translations. The conversion is performed on the assumption that the resilient supporting center matches the center of gravity, and based on the two-dimensional positional relationship between the resilient supporting center and the sensors and the active actuators.

    摘要: An electron microscope has an electron gun for emitting an electron beam, a specimen holder for holding a specimen thereon, and a deflection coil for applying the electron beam from the electron gun to the specimen on the specimen holder. A controller produces a differential signal representing the difference between a signal from a vibration sensor which detects vibrations of the electron gun and a signal from another vibration sensor which detects vibrations of the specimen holder. The differential signal is added to a deflection signal for the deflection coil for thereby effecting feedforward control of the electron beam to cause the electron beam to reach the specimen on the specimen holder, irrespective of the vibrations of the electron gun and the specimen holder.
