摘要： An optical encoder includes: a scale having a scale grating; a light source that emits light; and a light-receiving device that receives light that has passed through the scale. The optical encoder also has a shielding plate that shapes the beam shape, which is the shape of the light emitted from the light source. The shielding plate is disposed between the light source and the scale and defines the beam shape such that the shape of a long-length contour portion and the shape of a long-length side section have no correlation with each other. The long-length contour portion is a portion extending in the measurement direction at the contour of the beam shape of the light emitted to the light-receiving device via the scale, and the long-length side section is a section extending in the measurement direction at the contour of the light-receiving device.

摘要： A reference point detection light-receiving unit receives light from a reference point detection pattern by first to fifth light-receiving elements. The first to fifth light-receiving elements are arranged in a first direction and outputs first to fifth signals, respectively. A reference signal generation circuit outputs a reference signal that starts at a period where a level of a signal, which is obtained by adding first and second signals, and a level of a signal, which is obtained by adding third and fourth signals, will become equal, and ends at a period where a level of a signal, which is obtained by adding the second and third signals, and a level of a signal, which is obtained by adding fourth and fifth signals, become equal.

摘要： An optical encoder is provided that can reduce the effects of unwanted diffracted light in a stable manner. The optical encoder 1 comprises a scale 2 and a detection head 3. The detection head 3 includes a light source 4 and light-receiving means 6 with a light-receiving surface 60. The light-receiving surface 60 has an element row 7 with multiple light-receiving elements 70 arranged along the measurement direction with the same period as that of the interference fringes. Here, an error included in detection signals generated from the interference fringes, with such error being caused by the fact that the number of light-receiving elements 70 is an odd number, will be referred to as a number-of-elements-induced error, and a predetermined allowable error will be referred to as an allowable error. The number of light-receiving elements 70 in the element row 7 is set to be a number where the number-of-elements-induced error is smaller than the allowable error. Such number-of-elements-induced error is caused when there is an odd total number of light-receiving elements 70 and such odd total number of light-receiving elements 70 are functional, or when there is an even total number of light-receiving elements 70 but one less than such even total number of light-receiving elements are functional.

The light-receiving unit includes light-receiving surface (receiving surface) and converts light received at the light-receiving surface 50 into differential detection signals with two phases and outputs the same. The light-receiving surface includes element array group including four element arrays provided in a parallel manner along an orthogonal direction, with each element array including a plurality of light-receiving elements (receiving elements). The plurality of element arrays in the element array group are disposed at positions where the sum of: (i) a distance in the orthogonal direction from a reference position to a positive phase signal element array; and (ii) a distance in the orthogonal direction from the reference position to the negative phase signal element array, is the same for all the phases of the at least two phases.

摘要： A scale has a first pattern area and a second pattern areas disposed with an offset from the first pattern area in a measurement direction by 1/(2×s) of pitch. A detection head detects interference fringes caused by positive s-th-order diffracted beams and negative s-th-order diffracted beams diffracted by the scale, and output a detection result. A signal processing unit detects a reference position based on a position where light intensity is lower than a predetermined value which appears in a light intensity distribution of the interference fringes, and detects incremental positions based on the interference fringes which appear at other positions. The detection head includes a light source, a detecting unit configured to output the detection result of the beams radiated onto light receiving devices to the signal processing unit, and an optical system configured to image positive s-th-order diffracted beams and negative s-th-order diffracted beams on the detecting unit.

摘要： An optical encoder configuration comprises an illumination portion, a scale, and a photodetector configuration. The illumination portion transmits source light to a scale which outputs a periodic scale light pattern to the photodetector configuration. The photodetector configuration comprises a set of N spatial phase detectors arranged in a spatial phase sequence along a direction transverse to the measuring axis comprising two outer spatial phase detectors at a start and end of the sequence along the direction transverse to the measuring axis. At least a majority of the respective spatial phase detectors are relatively elongated along the measuring axis direction and relatively narrow along the direction perpendicular to the measuring axis direction, and comprise periodic scale light receptor areas positioned corresponding to a respective spatial phase of that spatial phase detector relative to the periodic scale light pattern, and are configured to provide a respective spatial phase detector signal.

摘要： An optical encoder configuration comprises a scale, an illumination source, and a photodetector configuration. The illumination source is configured to output structured illumination to the scale. The scale extends along a measuring axis direction and is configured to output scale light that forms a detector fringe pattern comprising periodic high and low intensity bands that extend over a relatively longer dimension along the measuring axis direction and are relatively narrow and periodic along a detected fringe motion direction transverse to the measuring axis direction. The high and low intensity bands move along the detected fringe motion direction transverse to the measuring axis direction as the scale grating displaces along the measuring axis direction. The photodetector configuration is configured to detect a displacement of the high and low intensity bands along the detected fringe motion direction and provide respective spatial phase displacement signals that are indicative of the scale displacement.
