Abstract
Abstract A speed control device for an electric motor having a rotation speed and driven by a power source and including components for producing a counter value from the rotation speed of the motor, components for comparing the counter value produced from the producing components with a predetermined counter value of a designated speed and producing a deviation output counter value, components for integrating the deviation output for a predetermined period of time including a first integrating circuit for multiplying the deviation output by a predetermined value and producing a resultant and a second integrating circuit for adding a predetermined value to the resultant of the first integrating circuit and producing a resultant, and components for adding said second integrating circuit resultant to the deviation output of the comparator means so as to change the deviation output resultant counter value to a time value for controlling the motor driving power source.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
132 words
A speed control apparatus for an electric motor, comprising means to convert a rotating speed of the motor into a count value, a comparator which compares the count value produced by the conversion means and a count value conforming to a speed designation so as to produce an error count value, differential means to differentiate the error count value of said comparator every predetermined time and to change-over transfer functions dependency on a predetermined magnitude of the differentiated error count value, an error integrator which integrates either the error count value or the differentiated error count value every predetermined time, and a calculating unit which converts the sum of the error count value and the integrated error count value into a time value for controlling a power source for operating the motor.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
132 words
A speed control apparatus for an electric motor, comprising means to convert a rotating speed of the motor into a count value, a comparator which compares the count value produced by the conversion means and a count value conforming to a speed designation so as to produce an error count value, differential means to differentiate the error count value of said comparator every predetermined time and to change-over transfer functions dependency on a predetermined magnitude of the differentiated error count value, an error integrator which integrates either the error count value or the differentiated error count value every predetermined time, and a calculating unit which converts the sum of the error count value and the integrated error count value into a time value for controlling a power source for operating the motor.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
75 words
A speed control apparatus for an electric motor as defined in claim 1, wherein said differential means comprises a differentiator which differentiates the error count value of said comparator, a discriminator which generates a control signal depending on the magnitude of the differentiated error count value, and a change-over switch controlled by said control signal of the discriminator to apply either the error count value or the differentiated error count value to said error integrator.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
216 words
A speed control apparatus for an electric motor, comprising means to convert a rotating speed of the motor into a count value; a comparator which compares the count value produced by the conversion means and a count value conforming to a speed designation so as to produce an error count value; a differential unit including a differentiator for differentiating the error count value of said comparator every predetermined time and producing a differentiated error count value, a discriminator for producing a first signal when said differentiated error count value is greater than a predetermined reference value and a second signal when said differentiated error count value is smaller than the predetermined reference value, and a switch responsive to said first signal to apply said differentiated error count value to an output of said differential unit and responsive to said second signal to apply said error count value of the comparator to said output of the differential unit; means for integrating values at said output of the differential unit every predetermined time to produce an integrated value; means for adding said count error value of the comparator to said integrated value to produce a sum value; and means for converting said sum value into a time value for controlling a power source for operating said electric motor.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
216 words
A speed control apparatus for an electric motor, comprising means to convert a rotating speed of the motor into a count value; a comparator which compares the count value produced by the conversion means and a count value conforming to a speed designation so as to produce an error count value; a differential unit including a differentiator for differentiating the error count value of said comparator every predetermined time and producing a differentiated error count value, a discriminator for producing a first signal when said differentiated error count value is greater than a predetermined reference value and a second signal when said differentiated error count value is smaller than the predetermined reference value, and a switch responsive to said first signal to apply said differentiated error count value to an output of said differential unit and responsive to said second signal to apply said error count value of the comparator to said output of the differential unit; means for integrating values at said output of the differential unit every predetermined time to produce an integrated value; means for adding said count error value of the comparator to said integrated value to produce a sum value; and means for converting said sum value into a time value for controlling a power source for operating said electric motor.
