Arrangement for determining a revolution rate and direction of rotation of a rotating component
A sensor device for contactlessly determining a revolution rate and a direction of rotation of a component that rotates during operation of the component, the component having, on at least one peripheral region, a circumferential structure of web-shaped or tooth-shaped radial protrusions and interposed grooves or tooth gaps includes: a threaded segment configured to positionally fix an arrangement of the sensor device so that the circumferential structure of the component is movable past the sensor device; a magnetic field generating device; and a magnetic field detecting device having at least three magnetic field sensors that are not arranged in alignment along a line. A distance between the magnetic field sensors that are the farthest apart from each other is less than or equal to a width of the grooves or tooth gaps of the component.
Variable speed device and variable speed system
A variable speed device that drives an electric motor includes a first acquiring unit that acquires a first parameter concerning an operation state of the electric motor, a second acquiring unit that acquires a second parameter concerning the operation state of the electric motor, the second parameter being related to the first parameter, a third acquiring unit that acquires a third parameter concerning a setting state of the electric motor, and a display control unit that simultaneously displays, on one display screen, a first display item corresponding to the acquired first parameter, a second display item corresponding to the acquired second parameter, and a third display item corresponding to the acquired third parameter. The display control unit graphically displays the first display item and the second display item in association with each other.

Method and apparatus for monitoring speed and position of a rotating member
A first counter is incremented when a first rotational speed sensing device detects a falling edge of one of the teeth of a single multi-tooth target wheel, a second counter is incremented when a second rotational speed sensing device detects a falling edge of one of the teeth, and a third counter is incremented when either of the first and second rotational speed sensing devices detects either of a rising edge and a falling edge of one of the teeth. A direction of rotation is determined based upon the third counter and a rotational speed of the rotatable member is determined based upon one of the first and second counters. The rotatable member is indicated to be at zero speed when the rotational speed is less than a threshold speed and the direction of rotation changes between a positive direction and a negative direction.
