Title: Shinji Nagata: Inventor of a Position-Detecting Device.
Introduction
Shinji Nagata is an inventor associated with Ibara, Japan, and Tazmo Co., Ltd. His work includes a patent for a device that determines the absolute position of a movable member.
Latest Patents
Nagata is credited with 1 patent: “Position Detecting Device for Detecting the Absolute Value of a Position of a Movable Member Which Has a Sensor Mounted Thereon.” The invention uses a scale with light-emitting elements spaced along the direction of movement and a sensor mounted on the movable member. The sensor detects light within a range longer than the largest spacing between the elements and produces a signal based on where the light is received. A control section uses that signal and stored information about the position of a driven light-emitting element to calculate the member’s position.
