The function of the coupling is to ensure the concentricity of the two shafts while transmitting the rotational motion of the hand wheel directly to the encoder.

They are also easily scratched and damaged. Due to the length of the scale, they can easily travel too far, damaging the scale. The grating reader and scale body are also susceptible to moisture, causing reading deviations. This can lead to inaccurate readings over time, and installation takes a long time, requiring professional installation.

[0006] Therefore, a connection structure between an encoder and a hand wheel is proposed. Utility Model Content
