Definitions
- the present invention uses a slit composed of a transmissive surface having a constant width and high transmissivity and a reflective surface using a reflective material, and converts an optical signal emitted from a light emitting element and reflected by the reflective surface into an electric signal by a light receiving element.
- the optical signal transmitted through the transmitting surface is converted into an electric signal by another light receiving element, and an inverted signal having a phase inverted from that of the reference signal can be obtained.
- the present invention relates to a position detection unit for detecting a position and a speed of a motor which can obtain a strong signal with respect to noise.
- FIG. 3 is a diagram showing a configuration of a sensor unit of a position detection unit to which a conventional method (transmission type) is applied
- FIG. 4 is a signal generated by the position detection unit.
- 1 is a slit
- 2 is a light emitting element
- 3 is a light receiving element
- 5 is a reflection surface
- 6 is a transmission surface.
- the transmission-type detection method consists of a light-emitting element, a light-shielding part with a certain width, and a continuous pattern of transmission parts, and converts light from the light-emitting element into an optical signal corresponding to the position of the motor.
- a light receiving device for converting the optical signal into an electric signal is arranged in a straight line.
- a separate light receiving element (not shown) was obtained on the same side as the side on which the light receiving element 3 is provided, and a B-phase signal having a 90 ° phase shift from the A-phase signal was obtained. Place it so that By doing so, the A-phase signal and B-phase signal as shown in Fig. 4 By using these two signals and measuring with a counter, the direction in which the motor travels and the approximate position can be determined. Also, by calculating the A-phase signal as a cosine signal and the B-phase signal as a sine signal, it is possible to know the signal one period / position (multiple position).
- FIG. 5 is a diagram showing a configuration of a sensor unit of a position detection unit to which a conventional method (anti- ⁇ type) is applied.
- the light shielding surface of the slit 1 used in the transmission type detection method is made of a material that reflects light.
- Light from the light emitting element 2 is incident on the slit 1 at a certain incident angle 0, and the light reflected on the reflecting surface 5 of the slit 1 is converted into an electric signal by the light receiving element 3 having an angle of 1 °.
- a material having low reflectance may be used for the transmission part 6 of the slit 1.
- the method of generating the A-phase signal and the B-phase signal and determining the traveling direction and the position of the motor using the two signals is the same as the transmission detection method.
- the size of the position detection unit has been reduced and the price has been reduced, and the sensor part is configured using a light-emitting diode for the light-emitting element and a photodiode array for the light-receiving element.
- a large light-receiving area cannot be obtained, and the current output from the photodiode becomes small, making it susceptible to noise (for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. Hei 6-149925).
- the present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and has as its object to provide a position detection unit that can improve noise resistance.
- the present invention generates a sine wave optical signal for position detection by transmitting or reflecting a light emitting element such as a light emitting diode serving as a light source and an optical signal from the light emitting element.
- An optical position detecting unit having a slit and a first light receiving element such as a photodiode or a phototransistor for converting the sinusoidal light signal into an electric signal, and detecting a position and a speed of a motor;
- the optical axis of the element is inclined at an angle of 0 with respect to the slit, the light from the light source is reflected on the reflection surface of the slit using a reflective material, and the reflected light is inclined at an angle of 10 degrees.
- the element converts the light signal into an air signal to provide a reference signal, and at the same time, converts the light passing through the transmission surface of the slit into an electric signal with a second light receiving element inclined at an angle of 0 to obtain an inverted signal having an inverted phase. It is characterized by doing so.
- an electric signal from the first light receiving element and the electric signal from the second light receiving element are differentially amplified.

- An optical signal that reflects light from the element 2 on the reflecting surface 5 is received by a light receiving element 3 such as a photodiode / phototransistor arranged at an angle of 0 and converted into an electric signal.
- the light signal transmitted from the light emitting element 2 through the transmission surface 6 is received by the light receiving element 4 arranged at an angle ⁇ and converted into an electric signal.
