Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for position measurement in crane and electric monorails, according to the features of the preamble of claim 1.
  • a positioning device for a conveyor system in which two lasers are arranged on a gantry crane, which scan reference elements attached to the floor.
  • the reference elements consist of two marking areas arranged at a certain distance from one another and in a certain direction.
  • One of the marking areas has an elongated strip-like shape and is scanned by a laser beam, while the other marking area has a very small area and is detected by the second laser beam. Both marking areas are arranged in such a way that only when a desired position is reached both can be detected by the respective laser beams.
  • Coded position sensors are known from "Controls and Regulations in Mechanical Engineering” 3rd edition, Verlag Europa-Lehrstoff, Wuppertal, with which distances can be measured absolutely.
  • a code reading device is moved along a code carrier and the code marks located on the code carrier are scanned by reading heads.
  • Several code marks form a code word on the code carrier, which is a direct measure of the distance traveled by the code reading device from a fixed reference point.
  • the code marks of a code word are divided into several tracks which lie alongside one another along the code carrier. For this reason, care must be taken to ensure that the tracks lie next to each other with the exact clock and, moreover, the read heads, which are lined up next to one another transversely to the direction of movement, must have no offset with respect to the clock tracks. If such an offset occurs, for example due to skewing, a so-called skew error occurs and mixed code marks are read from adjacent code words, which leads to corresponding errors.
  • Such a measuring system is therefore preferably limited to applications in which the spatial dimensions are small and one careful guidance of the reading heads towards the code carrier can be achieved. Large tolerances must be used in crane construction, which makes the use of such a measuring device impossible.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to provide a device for position measurement with which a distance can be determined with a high degree of measurement accuracy and which is insensitive to tilting or tilting of the code reading device with respect to the code carrier.
  • the arrangement is largely insensitive to tilting or slanting between the reading device and the code carrier, because regardless of the slanting position, the same code word is always read out by the reading device, provided that the sloping position is not so extreme that the reading device reads next to the code carrier. Also, a height offset of the code carrier is practically irrelevant, which considerably simplifies the attachment of the code carrier to the running rail, since there are no such high demands on the positional accuracy.
  • Code mark sequences that have the above-mentioned property of being unique along the code carrier are easiest to generate according to the theory of primitive polynomials with the aid of feedback shift registers. In this way, the uniqueness of each code word is guaranteed, as the number theory shows.
  • the code reading device contains a reading head for each position of the code word, i.e. in the case of a ten-digit code word, ten read heads are arranged next to one another, their relative distance being equal to the length of a code mark on the code carrier.
  • the code words read from the code carrier are in no way lexicographically arranged when the cat is continuously driving, if the code words are interpreted as a binary number, it is expedient to convert the code word into a binary number which corresponds to the number of the code word within the generating code sequence table. After the conversion, the determination of the cat position is then the product of the code mark length with the number of the code word read, based on the start of the table, which corresponds to the start of the code carrier.
  • one of the rollers delivers a clock signal that determines when the information supplied by the reading heads is correct information and when the reading heads are unfavorably above code mark boundaries .
  • a crane designated 1 with a boom 2 is illustrated, which has a horizontally extending guide rail 2 in the form of an I-profile, which projects at one end from a wall 3, not shown.
  • a conveyor element designed as a trolley 4 can run along the running rail 2 and can be moved longitudinally in the longitudinal direction of the running rail 2 by means of rollers 5, at least one of which can be driven by a drive device which cannot be identified.
  • the trolley 4 is provided for lifting and lowering loads 6 with a conventional lifting device 7, on the traction means 8 of which the load 6 is to be attached.
  • a code carrier 11 is attached to the web 9 of the I-shaped running rail 2 and extends over the entire length of the shortened running rail 2.
  • a code reading device 12 cooperates with this code carrier 11, which is located on the trolley 4 and thus runs past the code carrier 11 when the trolley 4 moves along the running rail 2.
  • the code reading device 12 is connected via a line 13 to evaluation electronics 14, which forward the determined data to a central control circuit 15 via sliding contacts and busbars which are attached on the opposite side of the web 9.
  • the control circuit 15 shuts down or starts the drive device of the trolley 4 according to the position reached.
  • the busbars for the drive device are also located on the back of the web 9 and are therefore again not recognizable.
  • the code carrier 11 consists of an elongated strip 10 which is fastened on the web 9 and passes over the entire length of the running rail 2.
  • the code carrier 11 is formed from a plurality of strips 10 which abut one another without a gap.
  • rectangular fields 16 of equal size can be seen, which symbolize the individual code marks 17.
  • These fields 16, like the field 16 ', are either opaque or, like the field 16 das, transparent, with two different values zero and one can be represented. For example, the value zero is assigned to the opaque field 16 'and the value one to the transparent field 16 ⁇ .
  • the code carrier 11 is scanned or read by means of the code reading device 12, which carries lamps 18 opposite the top of the code carrier 11 and reading stations 19 opposite the bottom. Both the reading stations 19 and the lamps 18 are mounted on a common frame 20 which is connected to the trolley 4 and is moved along parallel to the code carrier 11 when the trolley 4 is traveling. Each of the reading stations 19 - in the exemplary embodiment shown there are five - is connected via connection lines 21 to the evaluation circuit 14, which reports its data to the central controller 15 via conductor lines 22.
  • the code carrier 11 shown is a so-called transmissive code carrier which, depending on the value of the code mark, transmits more or less light from the illumination device to the reading station.
  • a reflective code carrier can also be used, in which case the lighting device and the reading stations are located on the same side of the code carrier 11 and the reading station evaluates the light reflected by the reflective code carrier in order, depending on the reflection conditions, at the corresponding mark to generate digital zero or a digital one.
  • the code marks 16 are arranged in a track or line one behind the other along the travel rail 2 without gaps, so that canting and inclination of the reading stations 19 arranged in a row next to one another in the longitudinal direction of the code carrier 11 cannot lead to reading errors.
  • a five-digit binary number can be read with five reading stations 19; their largest value is 31, so that a total of 32 different numerical values can be distinguished.
  • any group of five adjacent code marks 17 must be unique along the running rail 2 , ie this group may only appear once along track 2.
  • code word is used for a group of five adjacent code marks.
  • Sequences of numbers that meet the above condition that each number occurs only once in the sequence are so-called pseudo-random numbers.
  • pseudo-random numbers According to the theory of "primitive polynomials", they can be generated with the aid of a linear feedback shift register, the number of digits of which corresponds to the number of digits in the binary code word.
  • FIG. 3 shows the shift register which is generated for a five-digit code. It contains a total of five D flip-flops 23a ... 23e, the clock inputs 24 of which are connected in parallel, so that they change their state at the same time. Which state they take after the clock pulse depends on the state of the Q output of the previous flip-flop 23a ... 23e, because the D input of flip-flop 23a is connected to the Q output of flip-flop 23b, the D input of flip-flop 23b is connected to the Q output of flip-flop 23c etc., up to flip-flop 23e .
  • a modulo-2 adder 25 At its D input there is a modulo-2 adder 25 with three inputs 26, one of which is connected to the Q output of flip-flop 23d and the other to the Q output of flip-flop 23a, while in the third one is permanently connected binary one is fed.
  • a modulo-2 adder 25 has the property that its output is a logic one only if and when an odd number of its input connections are in the logic one state.
  • the modulo-2 Adder 25 receives an H signal at two of its inputs 26, its output changes to L, ie with the next clock pulse the shift register pulls in a zero and the flip-flop 23e is in the zero state.
  • the two flip-flops 23c and 23d are in the state one, while finally the flip-flops 23a and 23b in turn have the state zero.
  • the further states that the flip-flops 23a ... 23e can assume in the further successive clock cycles are shown in the table from FIG. 4. Obviously, each five-digit binary number occurs only once within a period of a total of 31 numbers.
  • code word read can be used determine how many code words from the table according to FIG. 4 it is, ie how many steps or code word changes were necessary to arrive at the relevant code word.
  • stride length corresponds to the length of a code mark; thus the distance of the trolley 4 from the beginning of the code carrier 11 is equal to the length of a code mark 17 multiplied by the position of the code word in the table.
  • FIG. 5 contains a table which indicates the length of the shift register according to FIG. 3 and how the individual outputs of the shift register must be linked in the modulo-2 operation in order to determine the binary digit which is fed into the least significant D flip-flop will.
  • a corresponding number of code words and thus increments can be distinguished, which the trolley 4 can measure on the running rail 2 from the beginning of the running rail 2 without having to measure the position the trolley 4 along the running rail 2 ambiguities occur.
  • each individual code mark 17, which are of equal length to one another, defines the step length after which the reading stations 19 of the reading device 12 read a new code word when they are exceeded. Based on its position within the table according to FIG. 4, the read code word defines how many steps are necessary to get from the code word zero to the read code word.
  • the Evaluation circuit 14 converts the read code word into a binary number, which indicates the number of steps passed since the beginning of code carrier 11.
  • a suitable conversion circuit 28 is shown in FIG. 6. It contains a binary comparator 29 with two sets of inputs 31 and 32, which have an input connection for each digit of a multi-digit binary word, in order to be able to check two multi-digit binary words for identity in bit parallel. Depending on the result of this comparison, the level at an output 33 is H or L. In detail, the state is H if the two binary words are different and L if the two binary words are identical.
  • the binary word supplied by the reading stations 19, which is fed into the input 31 via the lines 21, is compared with a binary word that a shift register 34 generates at its binary output 35.
  • This shift register 34 has the structure explained in detail in FIG. 3 and also its mode of operation.
  • the output 35 has a connection which is correspondingly connected to an associated connection of the input 32 on the comparator.
  • the signal of the output 33 controls on the one hand a start / stop oscillator 36 at its inhibit input 37 and on the other hand a non-retriggerable monoflop 38 at its trigger input 39.
  • the two inputs 37 and 39 are connected to the output 33 via a corresponding line.
  • the start-stop oscillator 36 contains a clock output 41, which is connected to a clock input 42 of the shift register 34 and a clock input 43 of a binary counter 44 via corresponding lines.
  • both the shift register 34 and the binary counter 44 each have a reset input 45 or 46, both of which are connected to an output 47 of the monoflop 39 via lines.
  • the binary counter 44 has a bit-parallel output 48, i.e. a separate output connection for each binary position and is connected to a data input 49 of an output register 51 via parallel data lines. Its bit-parallel output 52 is connected to the conductor lines 22.
  • the output register 51 is to be controlled via a load input 53, specifically the binary word at the input 49 is taken over to the output when an L level is present at the input 53.
  • the circuit described so far works as follows: as long as the binary word, which is supplied by the reading stations 19 to the input 31, matches the binary word which the shift register 34 feeds into the input 32, the output 33 has an L level. This L level blocks the start / stop oscillator 36 at the inhibit input 37 and also ensures that the output register 51 outputs the same binary word that is fed in at the input 49. If the trolley 4 now travels a distance, namely more than one code mark 17 on the code carrier 11, the code word read by the reading stations 19 changes, which consequently differs from the code generated in the shift register 34 word differs.
  • the output 33 of the comparator 29 therefore changes from L to H, whereby on the one hand the start-stop oscillator 36 is released at its inhibit input 37 and on the other hand the monoflop 38 is triggered by the positive edge going to H.
  • the monoflop 38 then delivers a short reset pulse to both the counter 44 and the shift register 34, both of which are then brought to the 00000 state.
  • the output 52 in the output register 51 is separated from the input 49, so that during the subsequent counting process the old binary number at output 52 is retained.
  • the clock pulses from the start / stop oscillator 36 both start to clock the shift register 34 and at the same time count up the counter 44.
  • the shift register 34 generates with each fed clock, starting from the code word 00000, each subsequent code word from the table according to FIG. 4, until the generated code word finally matches the code word that the five reading stations 19 deliver.
  • the output 33 switches from H to L, which stops the start / stop oscillator 36 and releases the load input 53 of the output register 51.
  • the binary number that the binary counter will then appear at the output 52 of the output register 51 44 has reached until there is identity between the two code words, namely the one read by the reading stations 19 and the code word generated by the shift register 34.
  • this binary number is one Number of steps that the trolley 4 would have to pass through in order to get from the beginning of the code carrier 11 to the detected position.
  • This number of steps is supplied to the central controller 15 via the conductor lines 22.
  • the conversion circuit 28 contains a ROM memory 55, into whose address inputs 56 the code word supplied by the reading stations 19 is fed via the lines 21.
  • the ROM memory 55 then generates a binary number at its data outputs 57, which indicates the position of the code word in the table according to FIG. 4 and thus the step number at which the trolley 4 is located. The distance of the trolley 4 from the beginning of the code carrier 11 is thus equal to the code mark length multiplied by the step number.
  • each reading station 19 therefore contains three equidistantly arranged reading heads 58a, 58b and 58c, which are each formed by a photodiode or a phototransistor in the optically operating reading device 12.
  • the reading heads 58a to 58c are arranged equidistantly and since the reading stations 19a to 19e from FIG. 8 are also distributed equidistantly, the distance between immediately adjacent reading heads 58 of adjacent reading stations 19a to 19e is equal to the distance between the reading heads 58 within a reading station 19a to 19e.
  • the sets of read heads 58a .. 58c are nested one inside the other, ie all read heads with the reference symbol a belong to the left, those with the reference symbol b to the middle and those with the reference symbol c to the right sentence.
  • the selection circuit 61 shown in FIG. 8 contains three conversion circuits 28a to 28c, each of which has the structure shown in FIG. 6 and accordingly each of which also has an input 31a to 31c with five connections each. For example, all the read heads 58a of the adjacent reading stations 19a to 19e are connected to the conversion circuit 28a at the input 31a thereof. This means Tet that every third read head of the total of fifteen read heads, starting with the one on the far left, is connected to the conversion circuit 28a.
  • the heads 58b of the reading stations 19a to 19e are connected to the conversion circuit 28b, and finally all reading heads 58c of the reading stations 19a to 19e are connected to the input 31c of the conversion circuit 28c.
  • the reading heads 58 are each at a distance from one another which is equal to a third of the length of a code mark 17, six cases can be distinguished from one another when reading five successive code marks 17. First assume that the read heads 58 are above the code marks 17, as shown in FIG.
  • the selection circuit 61 therefore has two independently operating binary comparators 62 and 63 with the inputs 64, 65, 66 and 67, each of which can process five bits in parallel in this exemplary embodiment.
  • output 52a is connected to input 64, output 52b to input 65 and input 66, and finally output 52c to input 67.
  • a multiplexer 68 is provided, which has two inputs 69 and 71, each five bits long, and comprises a five bit output 72.
  • the multiplexer 68 is controlled at its two selection inputs 73 and 74, which receive their signal from comparison outputs 75 and 76 of the two binary comparators 62 and 63.
  • the two inputs 69 and 71 are connected to the outputs 52a and 52b, as shown, while the selection input 73 is connected to the comparison output 75 and the selection input 74 to the comparison output 76.
  • both comparison outputs 75 and 76 are in the H state, which is why the multiplexer 68 switches the input 71 through to the output 72.
  • the code carrier 11 has migrated so far that only the two conversion circuits 28c and 28b now provide the same binary number, the output 75 changes to L, while the output 76 remains high. In this case too, the multiplexer 68 switches the input 71 through to the output 72.
  • the comparison circuit 61 is provided with two comparators 62 and 63 only because of the simpler understanding, because when setting up the truth table for switching the multiplexer 68 it is not difficult to see that the actuation of the multiplexer 68 is solely dependent on the signal on the Input 74 and thus the binary comparator 63 is dependent. In the case of an optimized circuit, the binary comparator 62 can therefore be omitted and the comparator is only controlled via a single selection input, namely the input 74.
  • the binary code shown for the code mark sequence has the advantage of particularly reliable readability. From the representation of the new arrangement, however, it is also easy to see that, instead of binary code marks, higher-value code marks, for example ternary or quaternary, can be used in the same way.
  • the entire reading head of the code reading device 12 has a length of at least 16 cm. If, on the other hand, a three-value code was used for addressing instead of a two-value code, a distance of 1771.46 m could be continuously addressed with an 11-digit code word length. At the same time, the read head would only have a length of approx. 11 cm, i.e. would have about two thirds the length of the read head for a 16-digit code with which only a third of the length of the line can be read or addressed.
  • the shift register when using a three-value code has the structure shown in FIG. 9 if three-digit code marks are used for reasons of a simplified representation.
  • the circuit according to FIG. 9 contains a first modulo-3 adder 79 with two inputs, one of which is constantly supplied with a "1". With its output, the modulo-3 adder 79 is connected to a further modulo-3 adder 81 connected downstream, also with two inputs and one output, which ver with an input of a memory 82 is bound, the content of which corresponds to the position Q1 from the code word.
  • the output of the memory 82 is on the one hand via a feedback line 83 at the second input of the modulo-3 adder 81 and also at an input of a downstream memory 84, the output of which is connected to the input of a third memory 85.
  • This output of the memory 85 represents the output of the circuit for generating a pseudo random sequence with a three-value code. It is also connected to an input of a modulo-3 multiplier 86, the other input of which is constantly supplied with a "2".
  • This modulo-3 multiplier 86 has the property of multiplying the number present at the output of the memory of the memory 85 by two and of making a number falling within the numerical range of the code.
  • the modulo-3 multiplier 86 also supplies a "0" at its output, which is fed via a feedback line 87 into the second input of the modulo-3 adder 79 . If the output of the memory 85 delivers a "1”, the modulo-3 multiplier 86 generates a "2" at its output and if the last option the memory 85 contains a "2”, the modulo-3 multiplier 86 generates a "1"".
  • each of the connecting lines shown between the modulo-3 adders 79, 81, the memories 82, 84, 85 and the modulo-3 multiplier 86 are multiple lines in order to transfer the numerical values from one circuit to the next. The passing on of the numbers from one memory to the next occurs with every cycle of a clock generator, not shown.
  • the code carrier 11 shows how a three-value code can be represented on the code carrier 11.
  • the code carrier 11, on which a "0" is to be displayed is transparent, as shown at 88.
  • the "2" that is the most significant digit from the set of characters, is read at those points at which the code carrier 11, as in 89, is designed to be opaque.
  • the value "1” between the values "0” and "2”, as shown at 91 acquires a lattice structure and transmits an amount of light that corresponds between the full shadowing by a code mark corresponding to a "2" and the full transmission of a code mark representing the "0". Otherwise, as before, all code marks are of the same length.
  • the section of the code carrier 11 shown in FIG. 11 thus contains the code marks corresponding to the number sequence 120020101. If one compares this number pattern with the table according to FIG. 10, it is not difficult to see that when the reading head reads the left three numbers, it reads a number 9, which can be obtained with the circuit according to FIG. 9 after the fourth cycle (it should be taken into account that the table can be read from left to right and the numbers on code carrier 11 from right to left). If the read head in FIG. 11 is moved, it detects the number sequence 200, which corresponds to the fifth code word number of the table speaks; etc.
  • a possible evaluation electronics for detecting the code marks on the code carrier 11 is shown in a highly schematic manner in a block diagram in FIG.
  • the transmissive code carrier 11 extends between a group of light-emitting diodes 92 and a group of photodiodes or phototransistors 93.
  • the number of light-emitting diodes 92 for lighting and the number of photodiodes 93 is selected in accordance with the exemplary embodiment explained with reference to FIG. 8 and is 3- times the number of digits that a code word contains. Since a three-digit code is selected in the present case, the number of photodiodes and light-emitting diodes is 9.
  • These semiconductor components 92, 93 are acted upon or read out sequentially via multiplexers 94, 95.
  • the two multiplexers 94 and 95 are shown schematically as mechanical switches, but, as is common today, they are electronic digital switches.

Analog-digital converters suitable for this are known and therefore no detailed description needs to be given.
  • the analog-digital converter supplies the digital number corresponding to the number read to the central control and evaluation electronics 97 via a line 102.
  • the operation of the circuit explained so far is as follows:
  • the two multiplexers 94 and 95 are actuated synchronously by the central control and evaluation circuit 97 via the control line 96.
  • This activates a pair of light emitting diodes 92 and photodiodes 93 which are opposite each other with respect to the code carrier 11, in the sense that the light diode in question lights up due to the connection to the supply voltage U, while on the other hand the one belonging to this light emitting diode 92 and behind the code carrier 11 located photodiode 93 is switched to the analog-digital converter 99.
  • the digital number read in this way is transferred to the central control and evaluation electronics 97, which in turn contains a linear memory which has a memory location for each photodiode 93, which can store numbers between "0" and "2".
  • the central control and evaluation electronics 97 contain a complete pattern of the piece of code carrier read. Since, as mentioned, the photodiodes 93 are distributed in the same way as in the exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 8, there are three nested numerical values in the associated memory of the control and evaluation electronics, which now correspond, as in connection with FIG. 8 can be described, evaluated and implemented in the corresponding clock pattern. There is also the possibility of first converting the nested numbers obtained into the code word number or measure number and then carrying out the comparison as described in FIG. 8.
  • a precedence condition can be provided, insofar as the actual position of the cat 4 is the position that results when two code word numbers are the same or it is the lower of two code word numbers when two decrypted numbers in the code word number are " 1 "differentiate.
  • the numerical values can also be color-coded. Color coding allows even higher-quality codes in a simple manner. For example, in the exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 13, a four-value code is shown on the code carrier, the digits of which are encoded via the colors yellow, green, red and blue.
  • the circuit arrangement shown in the block diagram in FIG. 14 for reading a color-coded code carrier 11 contains illuminating devices 103 that emit punctiform light and emit white light as possible.

  • the lighting devices 103 are on the input side of the multiplexer 94, which they one after the other with the supply voltage U and thereby lights up.
  • On the other side of the code carrier 11 there is an optical system 104 which images all code marks lying within a code word length on a photodetector 105.
  • the photodetector 105 consists, for example, of three photodiodes provided with corresponding color filters, so that only that photodiode generates a maximum output signal whose filter color matches the respective color of the code mark. It is also possible to use only three spectral colors red, green and blue as filter colors, the signal then being recognized correspondingly yellow if the photodiode for green light and that for red light deliver approximately the same signal amplitudes.

In the selected example, these are three lines, because the color yellow is determined based on the signals on the lines for red and for green.
  • the color detector 107 provides at its output 108 a digital number which belongs to the color read on the code carrier 11 in accordance with the respectively selected table.
  • the control and evaluation electronics 97 processes these digital numbers, as explained in connection with FIG. 12.
  • the control and evaluation electronics 97 can recognize which “read head” is active, although only one common photo detector 103 is provided for all read heads.
  • the photodetector 105 forms, as it were, with one of the light sources 103 a reading head corresponding to the reading heads 58 from FIG. 8.
