Abstract
Abstract A mobile body controlling gear is provided that can suppress an occurrence of yaw motion due to an offset when the P control is switched to the PID control. The yaw-axis control signal Ep is added to the control signal from the P/PID controller. The added signal is input to the actuator. The yaw-axis driving unit performs yaw-axis control. The yaw-axis angular velocity detection sensor signal Sa is compared with the reference signal r. Then the P/PID controller receives the comparison signal. The reference value memory holds the yaw-axis control signal Ep immediately before the P/PID switching unit switches the P control mode to the PID control mode. The yaw-axis control signal Ep is handled as the reference signal rb for the PID control. The reference value rb is added to the angular velocity zero detection reference value rz and to the yaw-axis control signal Ep. The resultant sum is input to the PID terminal of the P/PID switching unit. The error between the resultant sum and the yaw-axis angular velocity sensor output Sa is output as an error to the P/PID controller.

Claim 1
Independent Claim
112 words
A mobile body controlling gear comprising: a controller switched to a P control mode or a PID control mode to manipulate a mobile body; and memory means for holding a balance reference value of a control signal at a manipulation side in the P control mode; wherein said controller controls said mobile body in the PID mode by subtracting the balance reference signal held in said memory means from an error signal input to said controller a when status is switched from the P control mode to the PID control mode, so that an offset due to the balance reference signal of the control signal in said P control mode is canceled.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
112 words
