Abstract

Abstract Disclosed is a speed and phase control system for a moving apparatus driven by an electric motor, or the like, and provided with a speed control system for controlling the moving apparatus to an initially set speed, a phase control system for synchronizing the phase of the moving apparatus with a reference signal, and an error correction device storing therein a target value of and for comparing an actual speed or a phase of the moving apparatus with the target value to detect an error therebetween to thereby correct the initially set value in accordance with the error, whereby control is made such that the moving apparatus is operated at the target value of speed and phase thereof. Further, the error correction device is cut off from the speed control system when the speed reaches a value near the target value and at the same time the operation of the phase control system is started.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 143 words
A speed and phase control system for a moving apparatus driven by a drive source to effect predetermined movement comprising: speed control means for detecting an actual speed of said moving apparatus to thereby control said moving apparatus to make the actual speed be an initially set predetermined value; phase control means for detecting a phase position of said moving apparatus to thereby synchronize the phase of said moving apparatus with a reference signal; error correcting means storing therein a target value of speed and for detecting an error between said actual speed and said target value to thereby correct said initially set value in accordance with said error; and change-over means for effecting a change-over operation to stop the operation of said error correcting means and simultaneously start the operation of said phase control means when said error becomes a predetermined value.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 143 words
A speed and phase control system for a moving apparatus driven by a drive source to effect predetermined movement comprising: speed control means for detecting an actual speed of said moving apparatus to thereby control said moving apparatus to make the actual speed be an initially set predetermined value; phase control means for detecting a phase position of said moving apparatus to thereby synchronize the phase of said moving apparatus with a reference signal; error correcting means storing therein a target value of speed and for detecting an error between said actual speed and said target value to thereby correct said initially set value in accordance with said error; and change-over means for effecting a change-over operation to stop the operation of said error correcting means and simultaneously start the operation of said phase control means when said error becomes a predetermined value.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 71 words
A speed and phase control system according to claim 1, in which said error correcting means includes comparator means storing a pair of threshold values slightly separated from said speed target value in the positive and negative directions respectively, said comparator means being arranged to cause said change-over means to effect said change-over operation upon detection the fact that said actual speed reaches a range between said pair of threshold values.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 64 words
A speed and phase control system according to claim 1, in which, said error correcting means includes means for detecting a change in said error in either a positive or negative direction, and counter means for counting the number of occurrence of said change in error and for causing said change-over means to effect said change-over operation when the count reaches a predetermined value.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 198 words
A speed and phase control system for a moving apparatus driven by a drive source to effect predetermined movement comprising: speed control means for detecting an actual speed of said moving apparatus to thereby control said moving apparatus to make the actual speed be an initially set predetermined value; phase control means for detecting a phase position of said moving apparatus to thereby synchronize the phase of said moving apparatus with a reference signal; error correcting means storing therein target values of speed and phase and for detecting speed and phase errors between said actual speed and said target values to thereby correct said initially set value in accordance with said errors; change-over means for effecting a change-over operation to stop the operation of said error correcting means and simultaneously start the operation of said phase control means when said speed error becomes a predetermined value; and phase synchronization detecting means for producing a detection signal upon detection of completion of the phase synchronization by said phase control means, said change-over means applying a value corresponding to a synchronized phase position to said error correcting means in response to said detection signal of said phase synchronization detecting means.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 198 words
A speed and phase control system for a moving apparatus driven by a drive source to effect predetermined movement comprising: speed control means for detecting an actual speed of said moving apparatus to thereby control said moving apparatus to make the actual speed be an initially set predetermined value; phase control means for detecting a phase position of said moving apparatus to thereby synchronize the phase of said moving apparatus with a reference signal; error correcting means storing therein target values of speed and phase and for detecting speed and phase errors between said actual speed and said target values to thereby correct said initially set value in accordance with said errors; change-over means for effecting a change-over operation to stop the operation of said error correcting means and simultaneously start the operation of said phase control means when said speed error becomes a predetermined value; and phase synchronization detecting means for producing a detection signal upon detection of completion of the phase synchronization by said phase control means, said change-over means applying a value corresponding to a synchronized phase position to said error correcting means in response to said detection signal of said phase synchronization detecting means.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 72 words
A speed and phase control system according to claim 4, in which said error correcting means includes a comparator means storing a pair of threshold values slightly separated from said speed target value in the positive and negative directions respectively, said comparator means being arranged to cause said change-over means to effect said change-over operation upon detection the fact that said actual speed reaches a range between said pair of threshold values.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 64 words
A speed and phase control system according to claim 4, in which, said correcting means includes means for detecting a change in said error in either a positive or negative direction, and a counter means for counting the number of occurrence of said change in error and for causing said change-over means to effect said change-over operation when the count reaches a predetermined value.
