Abstract

Abstract A servo-motor control system varies a set point input signal to a comparator between predetermined limits in order to establish three detectable output conditions. When the difference between the feedback signal and the set point signal exceeds the average deviation of the set point input to the comparator, the comparator produces a characteristic output signaling rotation in one direction. When this difference signal is less than a negative quantity equal to the average deviation, the comparator produces a characteristic output which signals rotation in the other direction. If the difference signal is less than the absolute average value, then a third characteristic output is produced which causes a cutoff in the energization of the motor.

Claim 1
Independent Claim 217 words
A servo-motor control system for driving a servo-motor in an analog servo-system comprising in combination: a comparator circuit having two input means and an output means; means for generating a set point signal which periodically and continuously varies between predetermined limits; means for coupling said set point signal generator to one input means of said comparator; means for coupling a feedback signal to the other input means of the comparator; means for energizing said servo-motor; means responsive to the output of said comparator for coupling said energizing means to said motor; said responsive means coupling said energizing means to said motor for rotation in one direction when the difference between the feedback signal and the set point signal exceeds a predetermined percentage of the variation of the set point input to the comparator; said responsive means coupling said energizing means to said motor for rotation in the opposite direction when the difference between the set point signal and the feedback signal is less than a negative quantity equal to a predetermined percentage of the variation of the set point signal; and said responsive means disconnecting said energizing means from said motor when the difference between said set point signal and said feedback signal is less than a predetermined percentage of the variation in the set point signal.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 217 words
