13 Resistive Displacement Sensors (Potentiometer type) Belts and pulleys: Gears scale the mapping between input and pot shaft motions according to gear ratio. Rack-and-pinion mechanisms convert between linear and rotary motion. Lead-screws convert rotary motion to linear motion via the screw principle. 13

14 Resistive Displacement Sensors (Potentiometer type) Cabled drums convert between linear and rotary motion according to the drum circumference. Cams map rotary motion into linear motion according to the function programmed into the cam profile. Flexible shafts transmit rotary motion between two non-parallel axes with a 1:1 mapping. 14

15 Resistive Displacement Sensors (Potentiometer type) Implementation Protect the shaft from thrust, side, and bending loads (i.e., not use the pot as a bearing) Provide hard limit stops within the pot s travel range (i.e., not use the pot s limit stops) Protect the pot from contaminants. Advantages and drawbacks Pots are easy to use (2.5 to 500 mm) Relatively economical Almost no support electronics Poor repeatability Large hysteresis Subject to wear, particularly when exposed to vibrations. 15

Example 5-3: Suppose in example 5-2 we need a 0.1 cm accuracy. We have a shaft that rotates 250 when the panel moved from one extreme to other. A rotary motion potentiometer has been found which is rotated 300 full-scale movement. It has 1000 turns of wire. Can this be used? It is ok. 17

Answer: The power dissipated by the potentiometer is:c The actual temperature of the potentiometer is: Allowed power dissipation is: It is not ok. 18

30 Optical Encoder Displacement Sensors This part presented by: Mr. Ali Rahmanzadeh. Optical encoder A rotary encoder, also called a shaft encoder, is an electromechanical device that converts the angular position or motion of a shaft or axle to an analog or digital code. 30

31 Optical Encoder Displacement Sensors This part presented by: Mr. Ali Rahmanzadeh. Main parts of encoders - Light source - Condenser Lens - Graduated Disk - Photo detector (Photovoltaic Cells ) - Electronics board 31

32 Optical Encoder Displacement Sensors This part presented by: Mr. Ali Rahmanzadeh. Different types of optical encoders: Incremental encoders: It provides a pulse each time the shaft has rotated a defined distance. absolute encoders: It provides a output with a unique code pattern representing each position. 32

33 Optical Encoder Displacement Sensors This part presented by: Mr. Ali Rahmanzadeh. Incremental encoders: An incremental rotary encoder provides cyclical outputs (only) when the encoder is rotated, that can be easily interpreted to provide motion related information such as velocity. reference or "index", which happens once every turn. This is used when there is the need of an absolute reference, such as positioning systems. The index output is usually labeled Z. 33

34 Optical Encoder Displacement Sensors This part presented by: Mr. Ali Rahmanzadeh. absolute encoders: An "absolute" encoder maintains position information when power is removed from the system. [ The position of the encoder is available immediately on applying power. The relationship between the encoder value and the physical position of the controlled machinery is set at assembly; the system does not need to return to a calibration point to maintain position accuracy. 34

35 Optical Encoder Displacement Sensors Output techniques: In commercial absolute encoders there are several techniques for transmission of absolute encoder data, including parallel binary, analog current, analog voltage, PWM, Profibus, Profinet, EtherNet TCP/IP, CANopen, depending on the manufacturer of the device. This part presented by: Mr. Ali Rahmanzadeh. 35

37 Synchros & Resolvers Synchros and resolvers are angular position transducers. v Synchro Primary on rotor 3 Secondaries on 120 physical angle v Resolver Primary on rotor 2 Secondaries on 90 physical angle 37

38 Synchros & Resolvers Synchros and resolvers advantages over other position transducers. It is absolute position encoder. Synchro converter resolution is typically 12 to 14 bits. Its input is an ac source(220/110 V, 50/60 Hz) so, no need to separate dc excitation. Its output is a high level ac. Any noise induced into signals is small, since, one must divide the stator voltage by the rotor voltage. How do one convert these sinusoidal signals into an indication of position? The answer is a receiver synchro. 38

39 Synchros & Resolvers Receiver synchro. 39

40 Synchros & Resolvers Receiver synchro. The output from the receiver synchro is not linear. There are two angles, as the shaft is rotated through a complete circle. Synchro to digital (S/D) or resolve to digital is a convenient solution. It uses the S1, S2, S3, and R1 and R2 signals from transmitter synchro to produce a binary word. 40
