摘要:
An absolute encoder is provided with a movable member, which may be a disc, a photodetector and a processing circuit. The movable member has a plurality of tracks T arranged from higher to lower orders, each track having a bright and dark pattern. The photodetectors A1-A4 receive a light through the bright and dark patterns to output triangular detection signals A1-A4 associated with the track T. The processing circuit processes the detection signals A1-A4 to produce bit signals P1-P3 which indicate a position of the movable member. The processing circuit is provided with an input unit 1, a comparator unit 2 and a logic unit 3. The input unit 1 receives the detection signals A1-A4 for producing a plurality of triangular wave signals having the same period but different phases. The comparator unit 2 comparatively processes the triangular wave signals with each other to produce a plurality of rectangular wave signals having different phases. The logic unit 3 logically processes the rectangular wave signals with each other to output at least three bit signals P1-P3 from one track.

The optical displacement detecting device utilizes an encoder plate 2 mounted displaceably along a given first plane and having thereon a periodic slit pattern 1. A light source 4 is disposed behind the encoder plate 2 to illuminate the slit pattern 1 to form a primary fringe image 3 shifting along the first plane. A lens member 6 is utilized to project the primary fringe image 3 by a given magnification to form a secondary enlarged fringe image 5 shifting along a given second plane. A light receiving unit 8 is fixed in the secondary plane to optically detect the shifting secondary enlarged fringe image 5 through a periodic mask pattern to thereby output an electric signal 7 indicative of a displacement of the encoder plate 2.

An image pickup apparatus includes a lens barrel, a lens holding frame made movable in an optical axis direction inside the lens barrel, a movable lens held in the lens holding frame, a yoke inserted into the lens barrel and attached to the lens barrel, a magnet attached to the yoke, and a driving coil that is attached to the lens holding frame and located to be opposed to the magnet and gives propulsion to the lens holding frame. A pair of first fitting sections is provided in the lens barrel. A pair of second fitting sections is provided in the lens barrel. An interval between the first fitting sections is set larger than an interval between the second fitting sections. A distance from the optical axis to the respective first fitting sections is set larger than a distance from the optical axis to the respective second fitting sections.

摘要:
An absolute encoder is comprised of a movable member formed thereon with a plurality of slit patterns to define a plurality of tracks (T.sub.1, T.sub.2) which are bit-coded according to a digital code system such as a binary coded quaternary system indicative of absolute addresses, and which are arranged in parallel manner from a higher order to a lower order. A light source irradiates an illuminating light onto the movable member. A pair of photodetector arrays 1, 2 receive the illuminating light through the slit patterns to output detection signals (A.sub.0.sup.+ -A.sub.3.sup.-) for the respective tracks. A processing circuit processes the detection signals to produce bit signals (P.sub.0 -P.sub.3) and to decode the same to read an absolute address of the movable member. This processing circuit has an operation circuit (3-20) for logically processing lower order detection signals (A.sub.0.sup.+, A.sub.0.sup.-) obtained from the lower order track T.sub.1, with higher order detection signals (A.sub.2.sup.+ -A.sub.3.sup.-) obtained from the higher order track T.sub.2 to produce the higher order bit signals P.sub.2, P.sub.3 in synchronization with either of leading and trailing edges of the lower order bit signal P.sub.0. In order to detect a great number of tracks, the illuminating light from the lower order tracks may be received through an expansion optical system, while the illuminating light from the higher order tracks may be received directly by the corresponding photodetector array.
