<p>The kinetic energy or speed of a carriage running under inertia is detected and the forward or reverse propelling force imparted to the carriage is varied in accordance with the detected kinetic energy or speed for acceierating, decelerating or stopping the carriage without undue shock. For this purpose the carriage first passes first and second detecting means (13, 14) whose outputs are applied to a speed computing unit (17) and thereafter a force is applied to the carriage by second control means (11). The kinetic energy or the speed is then computed by the speed computing unit (17) using the output of third and fourth detecting means (15, 16) (which the carriage then passes) and first control means (11) apply a further force to the carriage.</p> |
