Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A reciprocating apparatus comprises a reciprocating member, a drive mechanism, an input device, a work-switch position calculating unit configured to calculate a work-switch position for the drive mechanism, a direction-switch position calculating unit configured to calculate a direction-switch position, a remaining-distance calculating unit configured to calculate a remaining distance that is a difference between the direction-switch position calculated by the direction-switch position calculating unit and a direction-switch position input at the input device, a target direction-switch position calculating unit configured to add the remaining distance, to the direction-switch position calculated by the direction-switch position calculating unit, thereby to calculate a target direction-switch position, and a corrected position calculating unit configured to calculates a corrected work-switch position for the drive mechanism so that the drive mechanism may cause the reciprocating member to start moving in the opposite direction at the target direction-switch position calculated by the target direction-switch position calculating unit.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A reciprocating apparatus comprising: a reciprocating member configured to reciprocate freely; a drive mechanism configured to move the reciprocating member back and forth; an input device configured to input conditions in which to reciprocate the reciprocating member, the conditions including speed data for the reciprocating member and an input direction-switch position of the reciprocating member; a work-switch position calculating unit configured to…
