Title:

MULTI-TURN ABSOLUTE ROTATION ANGLE DETECTION DEVICE AND METHOD FOR DETECTING ABSOLUTE ROTATION ANGLE

Document Type and Number:

WIPO Patent Application WO/2013/073319

Kind Code:

A1

Abstract:

This detection device is configured from a gear mechanism (1) provided with first to third counter-shaft gears that mesh with a main-shaft gear (10b), and has a relationship in which the difference between the numbers of teeth of the main-shaft gear and the first counter-shaft gear is two or an integer (a) exceeding two, the difference between the numbers of teeth of the main-shaft gear and the second counter-shaft gear is one, and the number of teeth of the first counter-shaft gear is an integral multiple of the product of the difference of the number of teeth thereof from that of the main-shaft gear and the shaft angle multiplier of a main shaft detector. The detected values of angle detectors (RS0-RS3) are given as digitized angle detected values (P0(4X), P1(1X), P2(1X), P3(1X)) to a multi-turn arithmetic circuit (25). The determination region of the detected value (P0(4X)) of a main shaft is determined, and the rotation angle of the main shaft is found. Further, periodic signal values indicating the differences in rotation angle between the main shaft and first to third counter shafts are generated, respectively, and on the basis of a combination of the relative numbers of rotations of the first to third counter shafts found from the respective periodic signal values, the number of rotations of the main shaft is found. The multi-turn absolute rotation angle can be obtained by adding the rotation angle to the number of rotations of the main shaft.
