Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of encoder installation, in particular to a micro encoder installation structure. Background Art

[0002] As we all know, an encoder is a device that compiles and converts signals (such as bit streams) or data into a signal form that can be used for communication, transmission and storage. The encoder converts angular displacement or linear displacement into an electrical signal. The former is called a code disk and the latter is called a code ruler. According to the readout method, encoders can be divided into contact and non-contact types; according to the working principle, encoders can be divided into incremental and absolute types. The incremental encoder converts the displacement into a periodic electrical signal, and then converts this electrical signal into a counting pulse, and the number of pulses is used to represent the size of the displacement. Each position of the absolute encoder corresponds to a certain digital code, so its indication is only related to the starting and ending positions of the measurement, but not to the intermediate process of the measurement. After analysis, it is believed that the encoders currently on the market are relatively large. The smaller the encoder, the more difficult it is to produce and install, and it is even more difficult to ensure a certain accuracy. Based on this situation, the 14MM micro encoder developed by this application just solves these problems. At the same time, after searching, no encoder with this structure was found.
