DEFINITION

Classification: 318/630

(under subclass 560) Subject matter in which some means to prevent "backlash" is provided to increase the accuracy of the positioned member. "Backlash" is an inherent inaccuracy more or less present in ever mechanical device caused by the "give" between parts. Backlash is also present in electrical components. Included herein are systems which do not specifically recite the term "backlash" but effectively compensate for it by always approaching balance from the same direction.
