AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing encoder components have complex structures, and the rotor needs to be thick enough to ensure the contact area between the teeth and the brush lever, which makes it impossible to miniaturize the encoder.

Method used

The encoder uses a positioning plate and a rotating wheel structure. The rotating wheel has rotating teeth that abut against the protrusions for surface contact, which simplifies the structure of the encoder assembly. Brushes are arranged around the rotating wheel to achieve a thin and light design.

Benefits of technology

The structure of the encoder assembly is simplified, enabling miniaturization of the encoder, and eliminating the need to ensure tooth thickness to guarantee stable encoding operations.
