Abstract
Abstract In a DC motor control apparatus for driving a DC motor in accordance with a signal of the difference between a revolving speed signal from a speed detector coupled with the DC motor and a command speed signal so as to drive the DC motor at a revolving speed indicated by the command speed signal, when a voltage to be applied to the DC motor and the revolving speed signal from the speed detector are both detected, the operation of the DC motor control apparatus is decided as normal, and when the voltage to the DC motor is detected but the revolving speed signal from the speed detector is not detected, the operation of the DC motor control apparatus is decided as abnormal and an alarm signal is produced.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
184 words
An abnormality detecting system for a DC motor control apparatus in which a DC motor is driven in accordance with a signal corresponding to the difference between a revolving speed signal from a speed detector coupled with the DC motor and a command speed signal for driving the DC motor at a revolving speed indicated by the command speed signal, said system comprising determining means for determining the normality of the operation of the DC motor control apparatus to be normal comprising a first comparator for comparing the voltage to the DC motor with a first reference voltage and a second comparator for comparing the revolving speed signal from the speed detector with a second reference voltage, said determining means for determining said operation of the DC motor control apparatus comprising means for determining said operation to be normal when the logic outputs from the first and second comparators are equal to each other, and means for determining said operation of the DC motor control apparatus to be abnormal when the logic outputs from the first and second comparators are different from each other.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
184 words
An abnormality detecting system for a DC motor control apparatus in which a DC motor is driven in accordance with a signal corresponding to the difference between a revolving speed signal from a speed detector coupled with the DC motor and a command speed signal for driving the DC motor at a revolving speed indicated by the command speed signal, said system comprising determining means for determining the normality of the operation of the DC motor control apparatus to be normal comprising a first comparator for comparing the voltage to the DC motor with a first reference voltage and a second comparator for comparing the revolving speed signal from the speed detector with a second reference voltage, said determining means for determining said operation of the DC motor control apparatus comprising means for determining said operation to be normal when the logic outputs from the first and second comparators are equal to each other, and means for determining said operation of the DC motor control apparatus to be abnormal when the logic outputs from the first and second comparators are different from each other.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
26 words
The system of claim 1 comprising means for generating an alarm signal when said operation of the DC motor control apparatus is determined to be abnormal.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
127 words
The system of claim 2, said determining means operating for rotation of said motor only in one direction, said determining means comprising a logic gate for receiving the outputs of said first and second comparators, said logic gate having an output corresponding to said determined state of said operation of said motor control apparatus, the output of said first comparator having a first logic state when said voltage to said DC motor is larger than said first reference voltage, and the output of said second comparator having the same first logic state when said revolving speed signal is larger than said second reference voltage, and the output of each said first and second comparators having the opposite binary logic state when each respective condition fails to occur.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
51 words
The system of claim 3, said logic gate having said first logic output when said first comparator has said first logic state and said second comparator has said opposite logic state, and said system comprising a resetable flip-flop for receiving the output of said logic gate for providing said alarm signal.
