Fly by wire servos with internal loop closure

摘要

Embodiments are directed to obtaining a first analog signal corresponding to a position error between a commanded gang output of a plurality of electro-mechanical actuators configured to be run in parallel with one another and a measured gang output of the plurality of electro-mechanical actuators, obtaining a second analog signal corresponding to an output torque, and processing, by a circuit, the first analog signal and the second analog signal to generate and output a discrete that indicates a status of the torque in terms of direction and magnitude.

1. A servo assembly comprising:
a hydraulic primary servo; a plurality of electro-mechanical actuators coupled to the primary servo and configured to drive the primary servo; at least one device configured to perform loop closure; and a summation bar coupled to a plurality of output arms associated with the plurality of electro-mechanical actuators and configured to perform a mechanical averaging of differences in outputs of the electro-mechanical actuators.
