US 2020/0025564 A1 · Method And System For Determining An Angular Position Of A Component Of A Goods Processing Apparatus

Abstract

A goods processing apparatus can include a pivotable display, a sensor, and a controller. The sensor detects an angle of inclination of the pivotable display. The pivotable display is rotatable about a x-axis of a Cartesian coordinate system. The sensor is disposed on the pivotable display and includes respective transducers at least in a direction of a y-axis and a z-axis of the Cartesian coordinate system. The sensor generates respective digital measured values for each of the y-axis and the z-axis. The controller processes the two digital measured values to derive the angle of inclination of the pivotable display based on the two digital measured values, and stores, in a memory of the goods processing apparatus, the derived angle of inclination.

Dependent claims

A method for determining an inclination of an adjustable component of a goods processing apparatus further including a controller and an inclination sensor, the method comprising:

providing the inclination sensor on the adjustable component, the adjustable component being rotatable about a x-axis of a Cartesian coordinate system, wherein the inclination sensor includes respective transducers at least in a direction of a y-axis and a z-axis;
generating, using the inclination sensor, respective digital measured values for each of the y-axis and the z-axis, and providing the generated digital measured values to the controller;
processing, by the controller, the two digital measured values to derive a valid measured value for the inclination of the component based on the two digital measured values, and
storing, in a memory of the goods processing apparatus, the derived measured value for the inclination of the component.
