The lever 5 is pushed by the protrusion 2, and a switch or the like attached to the lever 5 is operated, and the position of the protrusion 2 is detected.
ここでキャリッジ６がホームポジションにある時の突起
２の位置と、てこ５の距離を定めておけば、この突起２
の位置からキャリッジ６の位置が検出される。If the position of the protrusion 2 and the distance between the lever 5 and the lever 5 when the carriage 6 is at the home position are determined, this protrusion 2
The position of the carriage 6 is detected from the position.
上記の如きベルトに設けられた突起により、突起の位置

前記の精度を確保することが不可能であるという問題が
ある。Detecting the position of the carriage attached to the belt based on the position of the projection provided on the belt as described above has poor accuracy in detecting the position of the projection, and it is difficult to accurately match the position of each dot. The number of position detection points is small,
There is a problem that it is impossible to ensure the above-mentioned accuracy.
