Absolute position transducer |
摘要 |
<p>An absolute position-sensing device is usable to measure the relative position of two elements. An absolute scale includes an integrated track extending along a measuring axis of the scale. The integrated track includes a plurality of periodic portions interleaved with a plurality of non-periodic portions. Each periodic portion includes a plurality of periodically-placed scale elements. Each non-periodic portion includes a plurality of code elements indicative of an absolute measurement value. The code elements may have a length that is narrower along the measuring axis than the length of the periodic scale elements. The offset of the periodic-placed elements relative to a readhead of the device is combined with the absolute measurement value to determine an absolute position.</p> |
