Automatic transfer vehicle steering system

Abstract

Abstract PURPOSE: To make the simple and precise steering control possible by detecting the mark provided on the passage surface along an anticipated passage, and thereby steering in accordance with the mode based on the angle information, the position information and the judgement information. CONSTITUTION: The mark provided on the passage surface along the anticipated passage is detected, and in accordance with the configuration and the size of the mark, whether the mode 1 for correcting the amplitude angle and the position, the mode 2 for only correcting the position or the mode 3 for changing the direction either to left or right is judged by the mode judge circuit. Further, the angle deviation and the position deviation are computed inputted to the steering pattern generating device by the code judge circuits (I), (II) to determine the various amount to be steered. This various amount is applied to the servo motor through the controller to carry out the steering control. COPYRIGHT: (C)1980,JPO&Japio
