SCALE SUPPORT FOR AN ENCODER SCALE AND LINEAR ENCODER COMPRISING SUCH SCALE SUPPORT

Abstract: a scale support for an encoder scale of a linear electric motor includes a scale receiving part having an encoder scale receiving side, and two stands connected to the scale receiving part. each stand comprises a fixation pad arranged to be fixed to a fixation region of a stationary part of the electric motor, the fixation pad being subjected to a displacement induced by a displacement of the fixation region when the scale support is mounted on the stationary part and the electric motor is operating. each stand further comprises a decoupling member configured for a partial mechanical decoupling between the fixation pad and the encoder scale receiving side such that the displacement of the fixation pad of each stand does not cause a deformation of the encoder scale receiving side or a deformation occurring exclusively along a longitudinal direction of the encoder scale receiving side.
