Driving all-in-one machine and output shaft multi-turn absolute position detection method thereof

The invention discloses a driving all-in-one machine and an output shaft multi-turn absolute position detection method thereof, and realizes accurate quantization of a multi-stage coding system state by obtaining a detection value of each stage of coding shaft and decomposing the detection value into a turn value and an in-turn remainder value based on a transmission ratio. A mapping relation from an upper first-level coding axis to a lower first-level coding axis is established according to the transmission ratio, and a mapping value is obtained after dimensions are unified, so that a comparable basis of upper-level coding data and lower-level coding data is established. By obtaining the difference value between the mapping value and the corresponding inner remainder value of the lower first-level coding shaft ring and comparing the difference value with the half-ring threshold value, the phenomenon of zero crossing point asynchronization caused by the gear clearance can be accurately identified. Dynamic compensation is carried out on the number of turns of the next first-level coding shaft based on a difference value comparison result, and reading deviation caused by the mechanical back clearance is effectively corrected. Finally, the multi-turn absolute position of the output shaft is synthesized based on the compensated number of turns of the coding shafts, so that the continuity and accuracy of position calculation are ensured, and position calculation errors caused by gear gaps are avoided.

Position monitoring method using magnetic sensor system

To provide a linear actuator device, a magnetic sensor system, and a method of use for detecting the position of a component driven by a mechanism rotatable in a linear direction.SOLUTION: A magnetic sensing device comprising a multi-turn (MT) sensor and a single turn (ST) sensor is provided within the same semiconductor package and placed in the vicinity of a rotatable mechanism. A magnet is mounted on the rotatable mechanism, such that, as the mechanism rotates, a magnetic field is generated. The MT sensor measures the number of turns of the rotating magnetic field, which is translated to the number of turns of the mechanism. The ST sensor measures the angle of the rotating magnetic field, which is translated to an angular position of the mechanism. As each turn of the mechanism is translated to a specific amount of linear motion, the amount by which the rotational mechanism has turned is proportional to the distance travelled by the driven component, and thus indicative of a linear position. Therefore, by placing a magnet and the magnetic sensing device in relation to the rotatable mechanism, with the multi-turn sensor providing the number of turns and the angle sensor providing the precise angular position within each turn, the measured rotational position can be translated to a corresponding linear position of the element being moved linearly as a result of the rotation.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
