Abstract
In a linear motor comprises one or more moving units provided to move linearly on a base frame, one or more magnetic field forming members to opposed each of the moving units, and moving means provided on said magnetic forming members for moving the magnetic forming members on the base frame by reaction force occurring when the moving units are driven, whereby vibration acting on the base frame at the time of moving of the linear motor can be cancelled by the motion of the magnetic field forming members.
Claims12
A linear driving apparatus comprising:
- at least one moving unit provided to move linearly on a base fram;
- magnetic field forming members opposed to each one of the moving units;
- and
- moving means provided on said magnetic forming members for moving a magnetic forming member on the base frame by reaction force occurring when at least one moving unit is driven, so that when at least one moving unit moves in a first direction the magnetic forming members will move in a second direction which is opposite to said first direction.
A linear driving apparatus comprising:
- one or more moving units provided to move linearly on a base frame;
- one or more magnetic field forming members opposed to each of the moving units;
- moving means provided on said magnetic forming members for moving the magnetic forming members on the base frame by reaction force occurring when the moving units are driven;
- and
- retraction means for retracting said magnetic field forming members to a home position, said retracting means formed by a motor to move the magnetic field forming members in response to the signal representing the movement of the magnetic field forming members or moving unit said retracting means is formed by a motor to move the magnetic field forming members in response to the signal representing the movement of the magnetic field forming members or moving unit.
A linear driving apparatus comprising:
- a base frame;
- a magnetic field forming member movable linearly with respect to the base frame;
- and a movable member which5 is disposed on said magnetic field forming member and movable linearly with respect to the base frame by said magnetic field forming member;
- and
- means to absorb repelling force formed on said magnetic field forming member when said said movable member moves in linearly by action of said field forming member.
A linear driving apparatus in which a driving force created by magnetic fluxes of a magnetic field forming member is applied to a movable member so that a movable object is linearly moved alternately, comprising:
- first guide means for slidably shifting said movable member in the direction of said drive force;
- second guide means for slidably shifting said magnetic field forming member with its length shorter than the distance of the movement of said movable object in parallel with the direction of said drive force;
- and
- drive means for linearly driving said magnetic field forming member along said second guide means.
A linear driving apparatus for linearly driving an object comprising:
- a floor supported vibration eliminating table,
- means for absorbing vibration located between said table and floor;
- a movable element positioned on said table for driving an object by steering force applied to said movable element;
- and
- a magnetic field forming member for applying magnetic flux to said movable element said magnetic field forming member being freely movable in a linear and anti-steering force direction on said vibration eliminating table, so that no vibration occurs on said vibration eliminating table.
