Abstract:
A rotary encoder includes: an axis holding unit that holds a rotary axis member; a rotary slit plate that rotates around a rotary axis of the rotary axis member; a fixed slit plate that is arranged so as to face the rotary slit plate; a light emitting unit; a light receiving unit that receives the light emitted from the light emitting unit; and a fixed slit table that has a first positioning unit that is attached with the fixed slit plate and positions the fixed slit plate, and a light emitting unit holding unit that holds the light emitting unit. The first positioning unit has an abutting unit and a deformation unit. The fixed slit plate is arranged in between the abutting unit and the deformation unit while the fixed slit plate abuts to the abutting unit, by the deformation unit that has deformed.

Claim (Index 1):
A rotary encoder comprising:\n an axis holding unit that holds a rotary axis member; a rotary slit plate that is connected to the rotary axis member and rotates around a rotary axis of the rotary axis member; a fixed slit plate that is arranged so as to face the rotary slit plate; a light emitting unit that emits light to the fixed slit plate and the rotary slit plate; a light receiving unit that receives the light emitted from the light emitting unit; and a fixed slit table that has a first positioning unit that is attached with the fixed slit plate and positions the fixed slit plate, and a light emitting unit holding unit that holds the light emitting unit, the first positioning unit having an abutting unit to which first end portions of the fixed slit plate abut and that substantially does not deform, and a deformation unit that is arranged so as to face the abutting unit and deforms by abutting of second end portions of the fixed slit plate, the fixed slit plate being arranged in between the abutting unit and the deformation unit in a state where the fixed slit plate abuts to the abutting unit, by the deformation unit that has deformed.
