[發明所欲解決之問題][Problem to be solved by the invention]
在專利文獻1的線型搬運系統中,複數個磁感測器之間的間隔小於磁性標度尺的軌道方向上之長度。因此,一個磁性標度尺(亦即,動子)有時會橫跨在兩個相鄰之磁感測器的檢測範圍。又,在存在複數個動子之情況下,兩個不同的磁性標度尺(亦即,動子)有時會同時進入兩個相鄰之磁感測器的檢測範圍。即使在該些複雜之情況下,磁感測器亦必須能夠確實地檢測各參考標記,並確定設置有前述各參考標記之動子。In the linear conveyance system of

在該態樣中,在定位標度尺從橫跨在兩個相鄰之位置檢測部的檢測範圍的狀態移動到其中一個位置檢測部的檢測範圍外之情況下,其中另一個位置檢測部進行之基準標記的檢測被有效。例如,在存在複數個動子(亦即,定位標度尺)之情況下,即使兩個不同的定位標度尺同時進入兩個相鄰之位置檢測部的檢測範圍,由於在該狀態下基準標記的檢測不會被有效,因此能夠防止基準標記的誤檢測。In this aspect, when the positioning scale moves from a state spanning the detection range of two adjacent position detection parts to outside the detection range of one of the position detection parts, the other position detection part performs The detection of the fiducial mark is enabled. For example, in the case where there are multiple movers (that is, positioning scales), even if two different positioning scales enter the detection range of two adjacent position detection parts at the same time, because in this state, the reference Since the detection of the mark is not effective, erroneous detection of the reference mark can be prevented.

The device is equipped with: a plurality of movers driven along the track; a plurality of position detection parts arranged along the track in order to position the positioning scales installed on each mover, and the intervals between them are smaller than the positioning scales. The length of the scale in the track direction is determined by detecting the reference mark provided on each mover to determine the reference position of each mover; and a reference mark detection validating part, which is connected to the horizontal direction of the positioning scale. When the state spanning the detection ranges of two adjacent position detection units moves outside the detection range of one of the position detection units, the detection of the reference mark by the other position detection unit is enabled.

圖1為表示作為本發明之驅動裝置的一樣態之線型搬運系統1的整體結構之立體圖。線型搬運系統1具備:定子2,其係構成環狀導軌或軌道;及複數個動子3A、3B、3C、3D(以下,統稱為動子3),其係相對於該定子2被驅動並能夠沿著導軌移動。藉由設置於定子2之電磁體或線圈與設置於動子3之永久磁體相互對向,沿著環狀導軌構成有線型馬達。另外,定子2所形成之導軌可以為不限於環狀之任意形狀。例如,導軌可以為直線狀,亦可以為曲線狀,一個導軌可以分叉為複數個導軌,複數個導軌可以匯合為一個導軌。又,定子2所形成之導軌的設置方向亦是任意的、在圖1的例子中在水平面內配置導軌,但是導軌亦可以配置於垂直面內,亦可以設置於任意傾斜角的平面內、曲面內。FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing the overall structure of a
定子2具有:以水平方向為法線方向之導軌面21。導軌面21沿著導軌的形成方向以帶狀延伸,在如圖1的例子般形成環狀導軌之情形下形成連結(假想的)兩端而成之環形帶狀。在如上所述般能夠形成任意形狀的導軌之導軌面21,沿著導軌連續地或週期性地埋設或配置有具備電磁體之複數個驅動模組(未圖示)。驅動模組中的電磁體產生磁場,該磁場對動子3的永久磁體和/或電磁體本身施加沿導軌的推進力。具體而言,若在該等多個電磁體流過三相交流等驅動電流,則產生在沿著導軌之所期望的切線方向上線性驅動具備永久磁體之動子3之移動磁場。另外,在圖1的例子中,將環狀導軌形成於水平面內之導軌面21的法線方向為水平方向,但是導軌面21的法線方向可以為垂直方向、其他的任意方向。The
在定子2中,在設置在與導軌面21垂直的上表面或下表面之定位部22上,連續或週期性地埋設有作為複數個位置檢測部之磁感測器(圖1中未示出),該磁感測器能夠測定安裝在動子3上之作為定位對象或定位標度尺的磁性標度尺(圖1中未示出)的位置。將由恆定間距的條紋狀磁圖案或磁刻度形成之磁性標度尺作為定位對象的磁感測器一般具備複數個磁檢測頭。藉由使複數個磁檢測頭的間隔與磁性標度尺的磁圖案的間距或週期錯開,磁感測器能夠高精度地測定磁性標度尺的位置。在設置有兩個磁檢測頭之典型的磁感測器中,例如兩個磁檢測頭的間隔與磁性標度尺的磁圖案錯開1/4間距(相位錯開90度)。此外,亦可以與上述相反地,在動子3上設置磁感測器,在定子2上設置磁性標度尺。又,若按時間對藉由測位部22測量之動子3的位置進行微分,則能夠檢測動子3的速度,若按時間對該速度進行微分,則能夠檢測動子3的加速度。In the
設置在定子2上之位置檢測部和安裝在動子3上之定位對象或定位標度尺不限於如上的磁式,亦可以係光學式或其他方式。在光學式之情況下,在動子3上安裝有由恆定間距的紋路或刻度形成之光學標度尺,在定子2上設置有能夠以光學式讀取光學標度尺的紋路的光學感測器。在磁式或光學式中,由於位置檢測部非接觸地測定定位對象(磁性標度尺或光學標度尺),因此能夠降低動子3輸送之被輸送物飛散而進入定位部位(定子2的上表面)時的位置檢測部的故障等風險。其中,在光學式中,若由進入到測位部位之液體、粉體等被搬運物覆蓋光學標度,則測位精度劣化,因此若為能夠忽略磁性之被搬運物,則設為即使進入到測位部位亦不會使測位精度劣化之磁式為較佳。The position detection part provided on the
動子3具備:動子本體31,其係與定子2的導軌面21相對向;被定位部32,其係從動子本體31的上部沿水平方向伸出並與定子2的定位部22相對向;以及輸送部33,其係在與被定位部32相反之一側(遠離定子2之一側)從動子本體31沿水平方向伸出並載置或固定有被輸送物。動子本體31具備:與沿著導軌埋設於定子2的導軌面21之複數個電磁體對向之一個或複數個永久磁體(未圖示)。由於定子2的電磁體產生之移動磁場對動子3的永久磁體和/或電磁體本身施加導軌的切線方向的直線動力或推進力,因此動子3相對於定子2沿導軌面21被直線驅動。The
在動子3的被定位部32上,作為定位對象或定位標度尺的磁性標度尺或光學標度尺設置成與設置在定子2的定位部22上之位置檢測部(磁感測器或光學感測器)相對向。在位置檢測部設置在定子2的上表面之圖1的例子中,磁性標度尺等定位對象安裝在動子3的被定位部32的下表面。在定位部22和被定位部32為磁式之情況下,以使導軌面21的電磁體和動子本體31的永久磁體間的磁場不影響定位部22和被定位部32的磁定位之方式,在定子2中將導軌面21和定位部22形成在不同的面或分離的部位,在動子3中將動子本體31和被定位部32形成在不同的面或分離的部位為較佳。On the positioned
在圖1中例示了四個動子3A、3B、3C、3D,但是例如在搬運多次少量的被搬運物之線型搬運系統1中,亦可假設需要數量超過1,000個的動子3。在該等情況下,頻繁發生兩個不同之定位標度尺(即動子3)同時進入兩個相鄰的位置檢測部的檢測範圍之情況。又,彼此接近之兩個動子3(即定位標度尺)亦有可能同時進入一個位置檢測部的檢測範圍。即使在該等複雜之情況下,各位置檢測部亦必須確實地檢測以下所述的動子3的參考標記,並能夠唯一地確定設置有該各參考標記之動子3。FIG. 1 illustrates four
圖2係示意性表示出藉由線型搬運系統1中的位置檢測部和定位標度尺所構成4之定位裝置。定位裝置4具備作為複數個(在圖示的例子中為五個)位置檢測部的磁感測器S1~S5,該磁感測器S1~S5為了對安裝在複數個(在圖示的例子中為兩個)動子C1、C2上之作為定位標度尺的磁性標度尺(以下為了方便亦稱為磁性標度尺C1、C2)進行定位而沿著定子2的軌道方向或動子C1、C2的移動方向(圖2中的左右方向)埋設或配置在導軌面21上。FIG. 2 schematically shows a
各磁感測器S1~S5在移動方向之間隔可以彼此不同,但在本實施方式中說明所有間隔相等的例子。此時的各磁感測器S1~S5在移動方向之間隔例如為30mm。又,各磁性標度尺C1、C2在移動方向之長度亦可以彼此不同,但在本實施方式中說明所有長度相等的例子。此時的各磁性標度尺C1、C2在移動方向之長度例如為48mm。這樣,在本實施方式中,各磁感測器S1~S5在移動方向之間隔(30mm)小於各磁性標度尺C1、C2在移動方向之長度(48mm)。The intervals between the magnetic sensors S1 to S5 in the moving direction may be different from each other. However, in this embodiment, an example in which all intervals are equal will be described. At this time, the distance between the magnetic sensors S1 to S5 in the moving direction is, for example, 30 mm. In addition, the lengths of the magnetic scales C1 and C2 in the moving direction may be different from each other. However, in this embodiment, an example in which all the lengths are the same will be described. At this time, the length of each magnetic scale C1 and C2 in the moving direction is, for example, 48 mm. In this way, in this embodiment, the distance between the magnetic sensors S1 to S5 in the moving direction (30 mm) is smaller than the length of the magnetic scales C1 and C2 in the moving direction (48 mm).
磁性標度尺C1具有移動方向上的兩端部E1L、E1R以及從移動方向的兩側被該兩端部E1L、E1R包挾之長條的標度尺本體AB1。在標度尺本體AB1上形成有沿移動方向等間隔地設置的複數個磁刻度或磁圖案。檢測到標度尺本體AB1的磁刻度之各磁感測器S1~S5在公知的線型編碼器中輸出一般的A相和B相脈衝。典型地,A相脈衝和B相脈衝的相位彼此相差90度。此外,在磁性標度尺C1的兩端部E1L、E1R亦可以形成與標度尺本體AB1相同的磁刻度。The magnetic scale C1 has two end portions E1L and E1R in the moving direction and a long scale body AB1 sandwiched by the two end portions E1L and E1R from both sides in the moving direction. A plurality of magnetic scales or magnetic patterns arranged at equal intervals along the moving direction are formed on the scale body AB1. Each of the magnetic sensors S1 to S5 that detects the magnetic scale of the scale body AB1 outputs general A-phase and B-phase pulses in a known linear encoder. Typically, the phase A pulses and phase B pulses are 90 degrees out of phase with each other. In addition, the same magnetic scale as that of the scale body AB1 may be formed on both ends E1L and E1R of the magnetic scale C1.
磁性標度尺C1的各端部E1L、E1R在移動方向之長度例如為8mm。此時的標度尺本體AB1在移動方向之長度係從磁性標度尺C1的長度48mm減去兩端部E1L、E1R的總長度16mm而得之32mm。這樣,在本實施方式中,各磁感測器S1~S5在移動方向之間隔(30mm)小於磁性標度尺C1的標度尺本體AB1在移動方向之長度(32mm)。The length of each end portion E1L, E1R of the magnetic scale C1 in the moving direction is, for example, 8 mm. At this time, the length of the scale body AB1 in the moving direction is 32 mm, which is obtained by subtracting the total length of both ends E1L and E1R of 16 mm from the length of the magnetic scale C1 of 48 mm. In this way, in this embodiment, the distance between the magnetic sensors S1 to S5 in the moving direction (30 mm) is smaller than the length of the scale body AB1 of the magnetic scale C1 in the moving direction (32 mm).
在動子C1和/或磁性標度尺C1上設置有作為基準標記的參考標記Z1。磁性地檢測到參考標記Z1之各磁感測器S1~S5在公知的線型編碼器中輸出一般的Z相脈衝。詳細情況將在後面敘述,但根據參考標記Z1輸出之Z相脈衝用於確定動子C1的基準位置。在圖示的例子中,參考標記Z1設置在磁性標度尺C1和/或標度尺本體AB1在移動方向之中央。參考標記Z1和磁性標度尺C1在移動方向之兩端的各距離(24mm)小於複數個磁感測器S1~S5的間隔(30mm)。又,參考標記Z1和標度尺本體AB1在移動方向之兩端的各距離(16mm)小於複數個磁感測器S1~S5的間隔(30mm)。A reference mark Z1 as a reference mark is provided on the mover C1 and/or the magnetic scale C1. Each of the magnetic sensors S1 to S5 that magnetically detects the reference mark Z1 outputs a general Z-phase pulse in a known linear encoder. Details will be described later, but the Z-phase pulse output based on the reference mark Z1 is used to determine the reference position of the mover C1. In the illustrated example, the reference mark Z1 is provided at the center of the magnetic scale C1 and/or the scale body AB1 in the moving direction. The distances (24 mm) between the two ends of the reference mark Z1 and the magnetic scale C1 in the moving direction are smaller than the intervals (30 mm) between the plurality of magnetic sensors S1 to S5. In addition, the distances (16 mm) between the two ends of the reference mark Z1 and the scale body AB1 in the moving direction are smaller than the intervals (30 mm) between the plurality of magnetic sensors S1 to S5.
對以上的磁性標度尺C1進行之說明同樣適用於磁性標度尺C2等其他磁性標度尺。但是,以上各部的尺寸和參考標記的位置按每個磁性標度尺任意確定。以下只要沒有特別提及,關於磁性標度尺C1的說明同樣適用於磁性標度尺C2等,省略關於磁性標度尺C2等的重複說明。The above description of the magnetic scale C1 is also applicable to other magnetic scales such as the magnetic scale C2. However, the dimensions of the above components and the positions of the reference marks are arbitrarily determined for each magnetic scale. Unless otherwise mentioned below, the description about the magnetic scale C1 is also applicable to the magnetic scale C2 and the like, and repeated description about the magnetic scale C2 and the like is omitted.
各磁感測器S1~S5具備計數部51~55,該計數部51~55對形成在磁性標度尺C1的標度尺本體AB1和/或兩端部E1L、E1R之A/B相的磁刻度進行計數。各計數部51~55中計數值的增減方向對應於各磁感測器S1~S5所檢測之磁性標度尺C1(即動子C1)的移動方向。例如,在動子C1從圖2中的左側向右側移動之情況下,各計數部51~55中的計數值根據各磁感測器S1~S5所輸出之A/B相脈衝的數量而增加,在動子C1從圖2中的右側向左側移動之情況下,各計數部51~55中的計數值根據各磁感測器S1~S5所輸出之A/B相脈衝的數量而減少。Each of the magnetic sensors S1 to S5 is provided with counting
當動子C1在導軌上移動時,依次切換對該磁性標度尺C1進行定位之磁感測器S1~S5。圖3係示意性地示出從左側向右側移動之磁性標度尺C1的定位主體從移動源的磁感測器S1切換到移動目的地的磁感測器S2之情況。如圖所示,在磁性標度尺C1的標度尺本體AB1橫跨兩個相鄰磁感測器S1、S2的檢測範圍之狀態下進行磁感測器S1、S2的切換。在圖示的例子中,在磁感測器S1、S2位於關於磁性標度尺C1在移動方向之中央(參考標記Z1的位置)對稱之位置SW1、SW2之時刻,磁性標度尺C1的定位主體從磁感測器S1切換到磁感測器S2。When the mover C1 moves on the guide rail, the magnetic sensors S1 to S5 for positioning the magnetic scale C1 are switched in sequence. FIG. 3 schematically shows a situation in which the positioning body of the magnetic scale C1 moving from the left to the right switches from the magnetic sensor S1 of the movement source to the magnetic sensor S2 of the movement destination. As shown in the figure, the magnetic sensors S1 and S2 are switched in a state where the scale body AB1 of the magnetic scale C1 spans the detection ranges of the two adjacent magnetic sensors S1 and S2. In the example shown in the figure, at the moment when the magnetic sensors S1 and S2 are at positions SW1 and SW2 that are symmetrical with respect to the center of the magnetic scale C1 in the moving direction (the position of the reference mark Z1), the positioning of the magnetic scale C1 The main body switches from magnetic sensor S1 to magnetic sensor S2.
第1切換位置SW1係距離左端部E1L與標度尺本體AB1的邊界規定距離的標度尺本體AB1內的位置,第2切換位置SW2係距離右端部E1R與標度尺本體AB1的邊界規定距離的標度尺本體AB1內的位置。在圖示的例子中,第1切換位置SW1距標度尺本體AB1的左端的距離和第2切換位置SW2距標度尺本體AB1的右端的距離例如為1mm。在該等情況下,第1切換位置SW1距標度尺本體AB1的中央的距離和第2切換位置SW2距標度尺本體AB1的中央的距離為15mm,其和(30mm)與磁感測器S1、S2的間隔一致。The first switching position SW1 is a position within the scale body AB1 that is a predetermined distance from the boundary between the left end E1L and the scale body AB1, and the second switching position SW2 is a predetermined distance from the boundary between the right end E1R and the scale body AB1. The position within the scale body AB1. In the example shown in the figure, the distance between the first switching position SW1 and the left end of the scale body AB1 and the distance between the second switching position SW2 and the right end of the scale body AB1 are, for example, 1 mm. In these cases, the distance between the first switching position SW1 and the center of the scale body AB1 and the distance between the second switching position SW2 and the center of the scale body AB1 are 15mm, and the sum (30mm) of the distance between the first switching position SW1 and the center of the scale body AB1 is 15mm. The intervals between S1 and S2 are consistent.
當磁性標度尺C1的定位主體從磁感測器S1切換到磁感測器S2時,移動源的磁感測器S1的計數部51的計數值被移動目的地的磁感測器S2的計數部52的計數值接替。以下,將各磁感測器S1~S5檢測磁性標度尺C1的中央(參考標記Z1的位置)時的各計數部51~55的計數值設為零,將各磁感測器S1~S5在比磁性標度尺C1的中央更靠與動子C1的移動方向的相反一側(圖3中的左側)檢測磁刻度時的各計數部51~55的計數值設為正,將各磁感測器S1~S5在比磁性標度尺C1的中央更靠動子C1的移動方向側(圖3中的右側)檢測磁刻度時的各計數部51~55的計數值設為負。When the positioning body of the magnetic scale C1 is switched from the magnetic sensor S1 to the magnetic sensor S2, the count value of the
在圖示的例子中,參考標記Z1的位置對應於計數值「0」,第1切換位置SW1對應於例如計數值「+15,000」,第2切換位置SW2對應於例如計數值「-15,000」。以下,將第1切換位置SW1的計數值「+15,000」亦稱為切換計數值,第2切換位置SW2的計數值「-15,000」亦稱為開始計數值。在圖示的例子中,切換計數值和開始計數值只有正負符號不同。在圖示之狀態下,當磁性標度尺C1的第1切換位置SW1來到磁感測器S1上時,其計數部51的切換計數值「+15,000」轉換為位於第2切換位置SW2之磁感測器S2的計數部52的開始計數值「-15,000」。之後,磁感測器S2成為磁性標度尺C1的定位主體,其計數部52從開始計數值「-15,000」計數到下一個(向磁感測器S3的)切換計數值「+15,000」。In the example shown in the figure, the position of the reference mark Z1 corresponds to the count value "0", the first switching position SW1 corresponds to the count value "+15,000", for example, and the second switching position SW2 corresponds to the count value "-15,000", for example. Hereinafter, the count value "+15,000" at the first switching position SW1 is also called the switching count value, and the count value "-15,000" at the second switching position SW2 is also called the start count value. In the example shown in the figure, the switching count value and the start count value only differ in sign. In the state shown in the figure, when the first switching position SW1 of the magnetic scale C1 comes to the magnetic sensor S1, the switching count value "+15,000" of the counting
圖2中的基準標記檢測控制部40具備:根據各計數部51~55中的計數值使各磁感測器S1~S5進行之參考標記Z1的檢測有效之基準標記檢測有效化部41;以及根據各計數部51~55中的計數值使各磁感測器S1~S5進行之參考標記Z1的檢測無效之基準標記檢測無效化部42。The reference mark
在說明基準標記檢測有效化部41和/或基準標記檢測無效化部42進行之參考標記Z1的檢測控制之前,在圖4和圖5中示出其他實施例。如圖4所示,在線型搬運系統1中首次使用動子C1之情況下,需要藉由由複數個磁感測器(在圖4的例子中為S1、S2)中的任意一個檢測磁性標度尺C1的參考標記Z1,來確定或登記動子C1的基準位置或初始位置。各磁感測器S1、S2必須確實地檢測參考標記Z1,並能夠確定該參考標記Z1係動子C1的標記。因此,為了防止參考標記Z1和/或動子C1的誤檢測,各磁感測器S1、S2原則上處於無法檢測參考標記Z1之狀態,只有在能夠確實地檢測參考標記Z1和動子C1之情況下,參考標記Z1的檢測才被有效化。Before describing the detection control of the reference mark Z1 by the reference mark
如圖4所示,假定在線型搬運系統1中未登記初始位置的動子C1從磁感測器S1的左方向右方沿著導軌移動。圖4之狀態下的磁性標度尺C1的位置不在任一磁感測器S1、S2上,在圖5中顯示為「S1左」。在該「S1左」之狀態下,由於任一磁感測器S1、S2都沒有檢測到磁性標度尺C1的A/B相的磁刻度,因此示意性地示出各個計數部51、52(圖2)的計數值之圖5中的「S1-A/B相」和「S2-A/B相」都為「0」。As shown in FIG. 4 , assume that the mover C1 whose initial position is not registered in the
當動子C1從圖4之狀態移動,其磁性標度尺C1的至少右端部E1R來到磁感測器S1上時,該磁感測器S1檢測形成在右端部E1R和/或標度尺本體AB1上之A/B相的磁刻度,計數部51中的計數值根據來自磁感測器S1的A/B相脈衝的數量而增加。在圖5的例子中,當磁性標度尺C1的「標度尺位置」從「S1左」切換到「S1上」時,表示計數部51的計數值之「S1-A/B相」從「1」增加到「12」。在該「S1上」之狀態下,由於磁性標度尺C1不在磁感測器S2上,該磁感測器S2沒有檢測到磁性標度尺C1的A/B相的磁刻度,因此表示計數部52的計數值之「S2-A/B相」保持為「0」。此外,在本實施例中,為了簡化說明,假定計數值「18」表示一個磁性標度尺的全長,但實際的線型搬運系統1中的每一個磁性標度尺的計數值非常大,例如,如上關於圖3所述,為「30,000」(「-15,000」~「+15,000」)左右。When the mover C1 moves from the state in Figure 4 and at least the right end E1R of the magnetic scale C1 comes to the magnetic sensor S1, the magnetic sensor S1 detects the formation on the right end E1R and/or the scale. On the A/B phase magnetic scale on the body AB1, the count value in the
在圖5的「S1-A/B相」的計數值成為「9」之時刻,在「S1-Z相」一欄中出現之「Z」表示參考標記Z1來到磁感測器S1上。但是,如上所述,由於磁感測器S1原則上處於無法檢測參考標記Z1之狀態(「S1-Z檢測」成為「不可」),因此不檢測「S1-A/B相」的計數值成為「9」之時刻的參考標記Z1。At the moment when the count value of "S1-A/B phase" in Figure 5 becomes "9", the "Z" appearing in the "S1-Z phase" column indicates that the reference mark Z1 has arrived on the magnetic sensor S1. However, as mentioned above, in principle, the magnetic sensor S1 is in a state in which it cannot detect the reference mark Z1 ("S1-Z detection" becomes "disabled"), so the count value of "S1-A/B phase" that does not detect becomes The reference mark Z1 at the time of "9".
在圖5的「S1-A/B相」的計數值為「13」~「18」的期間,磁性標度尺C1成為位於磁感測器S1、S2雙方之上之「S1&S2上」之狀態。具體而言,磁性標度尺C1中比參考標記Z1更靠左側的部分(左端部E1L或標度尺本體AB1的左側部分)位於磁感測器S1上,磁性標度尺C1中比參考標記Z1更靠右側的部分(右端部E1R或標度尺本體AB1的右側部分)位於磁感測器S2上。在該「S1&S2上」之狀態下,由於任一磁感測器S1、S2都檢測到磁性標度尺C1的A/B相的磁刻度,因此表示各個計數部51、52的計數值之「S1-A/B相」和「S2-A/B相」都同樣地增加。During the period when the count value of "S1-A/B phase" in Figure 5 is "13" to "18", the magnetic scale C1 is in the "S1 & S2 upper" state that is located above both magnetic sensors S1 and S2. . Specifically, the part of the magnetic scale C1 that is further to the left than the reference mark Z1 (the left end part E1L or the left part of the scale body AB1) is located on the magnetic sensor S1, and the part of the magnetic scale C1 that is further to the left than the reference mark Z1 The part further to the right of Z1 (the right end part E1R or the right part of the scale body AB1) is located on the magnetic sensor S2. In this "S1 & S2 up" state, since any of the magnetic sensors S1 and S2 detects the magnetic scale of the A/B phase of the magnetic scale C1, " Both "S1-A/B phase" and "S2-A/B phase" increase similarly.
在本實施例中,「S1-A/B相」和「S2-A/B相」在大致相同之時刻在相同的方向上連續增減規定計數值量(在圖示的例子中為「3」計數值量)之情況下,其增減方向即動子C1的移動方向側的磁感測器進行之參考標記Z1的檢測被有效化。在圖示的例子中,由於「S1-A/B相」的「13」~「15」的增加和「S2-A/B相」的「1」~「3」的增加在大致相同之時刻連續產生「3」計數值量,因此增加方向即從動子C1的左側向右側的移動方向側(即右側)的磁感測器S2進行之參考標記Z1的檢測被有效化。這樣,在「S2-A/B相」的計數值「4」以後,「S2-Z檢測」從「不可」切換為「可」。In this embodiment, "S1-A/B phase" and "S2-A/B phase" continuously increase or decrease the predetermined count value ("3" in the example shown in the figure) in the same direction at approximately the same time. ” count value), the detection of the reference mark Z1 by the magnetic sensor on the side of the increasing and decreasing direction, that is, the moving direction of the mover C1 is enabled. In the example shown in the figure, the increase of "13" to "15" in "S1-A/B phase" and the increase of "1" to "3" in "S2-A/B phase" occur at approximately the same time. Since "3" count values are continuously generated, the detection of the reference mark Z1 by the magnetic sensor S2 in the increasing direction, that is, from the left to the right moving direction side of the mover C1 (that is, the right side), is enabled. In this way, after the count value of "S2-A/B phase" is "4", "S2-Z detection" switches from "disabled" to "enabled".
在該狀態下,當「S2-A/B相」的計數值成為「9」時,參考標記Z1來到磁感測器S2上(在「S2-Z相」一欄中出現「Z」),因此由該磁感測器S2檢測到參考標記Z1,動子C1的初始位置被登記在線型搬運系統1中。此外,在「S2-A/B相」的計數值為「9」之時刻,磁性標度尺C1通過磁感測器S1的右側,因此「標度尺位置」成為表示磁性標度尺C1(僅)位於磁感測器S2上之「S2上」,「S1-A/B相」的計數值保持最大值「18」不變。In this state, when the count value of "S2-A/B phase" becomes "9", the reference mark Z1 comes to the magnetic sensor S2 ("Z" appears in the "S2-Z phase" column) , therefore, the reference mark Z1 is detected by the magnetic sensor S2, and the initial position of the mover C1 is registered in the
如上所述,在圖4和圖5的實施例中,僅在兩個相鄰之磁感測器S1、S2的計數值在大致相同之時刻在相同的方向上連續改變了規定計數值量之情況下,動子C1的移動方向側的磁感測器S2進行之參考標記Z1的檢測被有效化,因此能夠用移動目的地的磁感測器S2確實地檢測由兩個磁感測器S1、S2同時檢測到之動子C1的參考標記Z1。但是,在彼此接近之兩個動子以等速度進行移動之情況下,實現了個別地檢測各動子之兩個相鄰之磁感測器的計數值在大致相同之時刻在相同的方向上連續改變規定計數值量之狀況,因此存在會誤檢測參考標記和/或動子之可能性。根據以下說明之本實施方式,藉由圖2所示之結構(特別是基準標記檢測有效化部41和/或基準標記檢測無效化部42),能夠進一步降低參考標記和/或動子的誤檢測的可能性。As mentioned above, in the embodiments of FIGS. 4 and 5 , only when the count values of two adjacent magnetic sensors S1 and S2 change continuously in the same direction by a predetermined count value at approximately the same time, In this case, the detection of the reference mark Z1 by the magnetic sensor S2 on the moving direction side of the mover C1 is enabled, so that the two magnetic sensors S1 can reliably detect the magnetic sensor S2 at the moving destination. , the reference mark Z1 of the mover C1 detected by S2 at the same time. However, when two movers close to each other move at the same speed, it is possible to individually detect the count values of two adjacent magnetic sensors of each mover in the same direction at approximately the same time. A situation where the specified count value continuously changes, so there is a possibility of false detection of the reference mark and/or mover. According to this embodiment described below, by using the structure shown in FIG. 2 (especially the fiducial mark
在圖2中,基準標記檢測有效化部41根據各計數部51~55中的計數值,在磁性標度尺C1、C2從橫跨兩個相鄰之磁感測器S1/S2、S2/S3、S3/S4、S4/S5的檢測範圍之狀態移動到其中一個磁感測器S1~S5的檢測範圍外之情況下,使其中另一個磁感測器S1~S5進行之參考標記Z1、Z2的檢測有效。In FIG. 2 , the reference mark
在圖6和圖7所示之簡單實施例中,基準標記檢測有效化部41根據計數部51、52(在圖6中未示出)中的計數值,在磁性標度尺C1從橫跨兩個相鄰之磁感測器S1/S2的檢測範圍之狀態如虛線所示移動到其中一個磁感測器S1的檢測範圍外之情況下,使動子C1的移動方向側的其中另一個磁感測器S2進行之參考標記Z1的檢測有效。In the simple embodiment shown in FIGS. 6 and 7 , the reference mark
如圖7所示,基準標記檢測有效化部41與圖5同樣地,在兩個相鄰之磁感測器S1、S2中的計數部51、52的計數值以相同之態樣變化(在圖示的例子中,在磁感測器S1的計數值增加到「13」~「15」的期間,磁感測器S2的計數值增加到「1」~「3」)之情況下,判定為磁性標度尺C1處於橫跨兩個相鄰之檢測範圍之「S1&S2上」之狀態。該「S1&S2上」之狀態下的磁性標度尺C1如圖6中實線所示,位於磁感測器S1、S2雙方之上。此時的參考標記Z1位於被兩個相鄰之磁感測器S1、S2的檢測範圍夾持之位置。As shown in FIG. 7 , the reference mark
如圖7所示,磁性標度尺C1橫跨兩個相鄰之檢測範圍之「S1&S2上」之狀態持續到磁感測器S1的計數值成為「18」以及磁感測器S2的計數值成為「6」為止,進而當磁感測器S1的計數值保持為「18」而僅磁感測器S2的計數值增加到「7」時,如圖6中虛線所示,動子C1移動到與移動方向相反一側的其中一個磁感測器S1的檢測範圍外而成為「S2上」之狀態。因此,基準標記檢測有效化部41在僅磁感測器S2的計數值增加到「7」之時刻,使動子C1的移動方向側的其中另一個磁感測器S2進行之參考標記Z1的檢測有效。此外,基準標記檢測有效化部41亦可以在磁感測器S1無法檢測到磁性標度尺C1的A/B相的磁刻度之時刻,使動子C1的移動方向側的其中另一個磁感測器S2進行之參考標記Z1的檢測有效。As shown in Figure 7, the state of the magnetic scale C1 spanning two adjacent detection ranges "S1&S2" continues until the count value of the magnetic sensor S1 becomes "18" and the count value of the magnetic sensor S2 until the count value of the magnetic sensor S1 remains at "18" and only the count value of the magnetic sensor S2 increases to "7", as shown by the dotted line in Figure 6, the mover C1 moves It is outside the detection range of one of the magnetic sensors S1 on the opposite side to the moving direction and becomes the "S2 up" state. Therefore, the reference mark
此時的參考標記Z1如圖6中虛線所示,仍然位於被兩個相鄰之磁感測器S1、S2的檢測範圍夾持之位置,因此動子C1進一步向相同的方向移動,從而參考標記Z1來到磁感測器S2上。具體而言,磁感測器S2的計數值成為「9」時,參考標記Z1來到磁感測器S2上(在「S2-Z相」一欄中出現「Z」),因此由該磁感測器S2檢測到參考標記Z1,動子C1的初始位置被登記在線型搬運系統1中。圖2中的基準標記檢測無效化部42在由基準標記檢測有效化部41以S2計數值「7」有效化之移動方向側的其中另一個磁感測器S2以S2計數值「9」檢測到參考標記Z1之情況下,在S2計數值「10」以後使該其中另一個磁感測器S2進行之該參考標記Z1的檢測無效(使「S2-Z檢測」為「不可」)。At this time, the reference mark Z1, as shown by the dotted line in Figure 6, is still located at a position sandwiched by the detection ranges of the two adjacent magnetic sensors S1 and S2. Therefore, the mover C1 further moves in the same direction, thus the reference mark Z1 Marker Z1 comes to magnetic sensor S2. Specifically, when the count value of the magnetic sensor S2 becomes "9", the reference mark Z1 comes to the magnetic sensor S2 ("Z" appears in the "S2-Z phase" column), so the magnetic The sensor S2 detects the reference mark Z1, and the initial position of the mover C1 is registered in the
接著,對存在複數個動子之情況進行說明。在該等情況下,彼此接近之兩個動子(即磁性標度尺)有可能同時進入一個磁感測器的檢測範圍,因此事先採取如圖8所示的用於防止各磁性標度尺的誤檢測的措施為較佳。Next, the case where there are multiple movers is explained. In such cases, two movers (i.e., magnetic scales) that are close to each other may enter the detection range of a magnetic sensor at the same time. Therefore, measures as shown in Figure 8 are taken in advance to prevent each magnetic scale. Measures for false detection are better.
在圖8中示意性地示出接近到最小可接近距離之兩個磁性標度尺C1、C2同時進入一個磁感測器S1~S5的檢測範圍R之狀態。在該例子中,兩個磁性標度尺C1、C2的最小可接近距離(圖示之狀態下之磁性標度尺C1的右端與磁性標度尺C2的左端的距離)為2mm,磁感測器S1~S5的檢測範圍R在軌道方向(圖8中的左右方向)的長度為5mm。如上所述,在磁性標度尺C1的右端部E1R和磁性標度尺C2的左端部E2L,與磁性標度尺C1的標度尺本體AB1和磁性標度尺C2的標度尺本體AB2同樣地形成有A/B相的磁刻度,因此在圖示之狀態下磁感測器S1~S5會同時檢測右端部E1R的A/B相的磁刻度和左端部E2L的A/B相的磁刻度。該等情況下之磁感測器S1~S5無法區分兩個磁性標度尺C1、C2進行檢測。FIG. 8 schematically shows a state in which two magnetic scales C1 and C2, which are close to the minimum accessible distance, simultaneously enter the detection range R of one magnetic sensor S1 to S5. In this example, the minimum accessible distance between the two magnetic scales C1 and C2 (the distance between the right end of the magnetic scale C1 and the left end of the magnetic scale C2 in the state shown in the figure) is 2mm, and the magnetic sensing The length of the detection range R of the devices S1 to S5 in the track direction (the left-right direction in Figure 8) is 5 mm. As described above, the right end portion E1R of the magnetic scale C1 and the left end portion E2L of the magnetic scale C2 are the same as the scale body AB1 of the magnetic scale C1 and the scale body AB2 of the magnetic scale C2. The ground has an A/B phase magnetic scale, so in the state shown in the figure, the magnetic sensors S1 to S5 will simultaneously detect the A/B phase magnetic scale of the right end E1R and the A/B phase magnetic scale of the left end E2L. scale. In these cases, the magnetic sensors S1 to S5 cannot distinguish between the two magnetic scales C1 and C2 for detection.
為了防止這樣接近之兩個磁性標度尺C1、C2的誤檢測,設置將磁性標度尺C1的右端部E1R和/或磁性標度尺C2的左端部E2L從磁感測器S1~S5的檢測範圍R遮蔽之遮蔽構件B1R和/或遮蔽構件B2L。In order to prevent erroneous detection of the two magnetic scales C1 and C2 that are so close to each other, the right end portion E1R of the magnetic scale C1 and/or the left end portion E2L of the magnetic scale C2 is separated from the magnetic sensors S1 to S5. The detection range R is shielded by the shielding member B1R and/or the shielding member B2L.
遮蔽構件B1R在磁性標度尺C1的右端部E1R至少遮蔽設置在遠離標度尺本體AB1的右端側之A/B相的磁刻度。具體而言,如上所述,全長8mm的右端部E1R中,右端側的部分被遮蔽構件B1R遮蔽。如果將遮蔽構件B1R在軌道方向之長度設為磁感測器S1~S5的檢測範圍R在軌道方向之長度(5mm)以上,則能夠藉由遮蔽構件B1R單獨遮蔽磁感測器S1~S5的檢測範圍R,防止磁性標度尺C1與磁性標度尺C2同時被檢測。又,如果將遮蔽構件B1R在軌道方向之長度設為從磁感測器S1~S5的檢測範圍R在軌道方向之長度(5mm)減去動子C1、C2的最小可接近距離(2mm)而得之長度(3mm)以上,則能夠藉由遮蔽構件B1R單獨實質上遮蔽磁感測器S1~S5的檢測範圍R,防止磁性標度尺C1與磁性標度尺C2同時被檢測。而且,如果將遮蔽構件B1R在軌道方向之長度設為從磁感測器S1~S5的檢測範圍R在軌道方向之長度(5mm)減去動子C1、C2的最小可接近距離(2mm)而得之長度(3mm)的一半(1.5mm)以上,則能夠藉由與同樣長度的遮蔽構件B2L一起實質上遮蔽磁感測器S1~S5的檢測範圍R,防止磁性標度尺C1與磁性標度尺C2同時被檢測。The shielding member B1R shields at least the A/B phase magnetic scale provided on the right end side away from the scale body AB1 at the right end portion E1R of the magnetic scale C1. Specifically, as described above, of the right end portion E1R with a total length of 8 mm, the right end side portion is shielded by the shielding member B1R. If the length of the shielding member B1R in the track direction is set to be at least the length (5 mm) of the detection range R of the magnetic sensors S1 to S5 in the track direction, the magnetic sensors S1 to S5 can be individually shielded by the shielding member B1R. The detection range R prevents the magnetic scale C1 and the magnetic scale C2 from being detected at the same time. In addition, if the length of the shielding member B1R in the track direction is subtracted from the length of the detection range R of the magnetic sensors S1 to S5 in the track direction (5 mm) by subtracting the minimum approachable distance (2 mm) of the movers C1 and C2. If the length (3 mm) or more is obtained, the detection range R of the magnetic sensors S1 to S5 can be substantially shielded by the shielding member B1R alone, preventing the magnetic scale C1 and the magnetic scale C2 from being detected at the same time. Furthermore, if the length of the shielding member B1R in the track direction is subtracted from the length of the detection range R of the magnetic sensors S1 to S5 in the track direction (5 mm) by subtracting the minimum accessible distance (2 mm) of the movers C1 and C2, By obtaining more than half (1.5mm) of the length (3mm), the detection range R of the magnetic sensors S1 to S5 can be substantially shielded together with the shielding member B2L of the same length to prevent the magnetic scale C1 from interacting with the magnetic scale. Scale C2 is tested at the same time.
遮蔽構件B2L在磁性標度尺C2的左端部E2L至少遮蔽設置在遠離標度尺本體AB2的左端側之A/B相的磁刻度。具體而言,如上所述,全長8mm的左端部E2L中,左端側的部分被遮蔽構件B2L遮蔽。如果將遮蔽構件B2L在軌道方向之長度設為磁感測器S1~S5的檢測範圍R在軌道方向之長度(5mm)以上,則能夠藉由遮蔽構件B2L單獨遮蔽磁感測器S1~S5的檢測範圍R,防止磁性標度尺C2與磁性標度尺C1同時被檢測。又,如果將遮蔽構件B2L在軌道方向之長度設為從磁感測器S1~S5的檢測範圍R在軌道方向之長度(5mm)減去動子C1、C2的最小可接近距離(2mm)而得之長度(3mm)以上,則能夠藉由遮蔽構件B2L單獨實質上遮蔽磁感測器S1~S5的檢測範圍R,防止磁性標度尺C2與磁性標度尺C1同時被檢測。而且,如果將遮蔽構件B2L在軌道方向之長度設為從磁感測器S1~S5的檢測範圍R在軌道方向之長度(5mm)減去動子C1、C2的最小可接近距離(2mm)而得之長度(3mm)的一半(1.5mm)以上,則能夠藉由與同樣長度的遮蔽構件B1R一起實質上遮蔽磁感測器S1~S5的檢測範圍R,防止磁性標度尺C2與磁性標度尺C1同時被檢測。The shielding member B2L shields at least the A/B phase magnetic scale provided on the left end side away from the scale body AB2 at the left end portion E2L of the magnetic scale C2. Specifically, as described above, of the left end portion E2L with a total length of 8 mm, the portion on the left end side is shielded by the shielding member B2L. If the length of the shielding member B2L in the track direction is set to be at least the length (5 mm) of the detection range R of the magnetic sensors S1 to S5 in the track direction, the magnetic sensors S1 to S5 can be individually shielded by the shielding member B2L. The detection range R prevents the magnetic scale C2 and the magnetic scale C1 from being detected at the same time. In addition, if the length of the shielding member B2L in the track direction is subtracted from the length of the detection range R of the magnetic sensors S1 to S5 in the track direction (5 mm) by subtracting the minimum accessible distance (2 mm) of the movers C1 and C2, If the length (3 mm) or more is obtained, the detection range R of the magnetic sensors S1 to S5 can be substantially shielded by the shielding member B2L alone, preventing the magnetic scale C2 and the magnetic scale C1 from being detected at the same time. Furthermore, if the length of the shielding member B2L in the track direction is subtracted from the length of the detection range R of the magnetic sensors S1 to S5 in the track direction (5 mm) by subtracting the minimum accessible distance (2 mm) of the movers C1 and C2, By obtaining more than half (1.5mm) of the length (3mm), the detection range R of the magnetic sensors S1 to S5 can be substantially shielded together with the shielding member B1R of the same length to prevent the magnetic scale C2 from interacting with the magnetic scale. Scale C1 is tested at the same time.
在磁性標度尺C1中,可以在未示出的左端部設置與右端部的遮蔽構件B1R(或磁性標度尺C2的左端部的遮蔽構件B2L)同樣的遮蔽構件,亦可以僅在左端部設置遮蔽構件。同樣地,在磁性標度尺C2中,可以在未示出的右端部設置與左端部的遮蔽構件B2L(或磁性標度尺C1的右端部的遮蔽構件B1R)同樣的遮蔽構件,亦可以僅在右端部設置遮蔽構件。In the magnetic scale C1, a shielding member similar to the shielding member B1R at the right end (or the shielding member B2L at the left end of the magnetic scale C2) may be provided at the left end (not shown), or may be provided only at the left end. Set up the masking component. Similarly, in the magnetic scale C2, the same shielding member as the shielding member B2L at the left end (or the shielding member B1R at the right end of the magnetic scale C1) may be provided at the right end (not shown), or only Provide a shielding member at the right end.
遮蔽構件B1R和/或遮蔽構件B2L由將磁性標度尺C1和/或磁性標度尺C2中的至少一個端部從磁感測器S1~S5磁遮蔽之強磁性材料形成。作為強磁性材料,可以例示鐵、鈷、鎳、釓、錳等金屬或合金。此外,在使用光學標度尺代替磁性標度尺作為定位標度尺之情況下,利用光學遮蔽作為位置檢測部的光學感測器之遮光材料形成遮蔽構件即可。如上所述,藉由採取圖8那樣的措施,即使彼此接近之兩個動子的定位標度尺的端部同時進入一個位置檢測部的檢測範圍,亦能夠藉由設置在該端部的至少一方之遮蔽構件,防止兩個定位標度尺同時被位置檢測部誤檢測。The shielding member B1R and/or the shielding member B2L is formed of a ferromagnetic material that magnetically shields at least one end of the magnetic scale C1 and/or the magnetic scale C2 from the magnetic sensors S1 to S5. Examples of ferromagnetic materials include metals or alloys such as iron, cobalt, nickel, gallium, and manganese. In addition, when an optical scale is used as the positioning scale instead of the magnetic scale, the shielding member can be formed by using a light-shielding material that optically shields the optical sensor as the position detection part. As described above, by taking measures as shown in FIG. 8 , even if the ends of the positioning scales of two movers that are close to each other enter the detection range of one position detection unit at the same time, it is possible to detect at least one position detector provided at the end. The shielding member on one side prevents the two positioning scales from being mistakenly detected by the position detection part at the same time.
