Abstract

A control apparatus of a magnetic bearing controls electromagnets so that both a displacement deviation of a center of gravity of a rotary shaft and an angle of twist around the center of gravity of the rotary shaft become 0, thereby supporting the rotary shaft in space by the magnetic force of the electromagnets. The apparatus includes .theta..sub.X and .theta..sub.Y control devices for controlling angles .theta..sub.X and .theta..sub.Y of twist of the two degrees of freedom of a rotational motion orthogonal to each other around the center of gravity and perpendicular to an axial direction of the rotary shaft, a cross feedback being produced so that both a feedback signal of the rotary angle .theta..sub.X and a feedback signal of the rotary angle .theta..sub.Y are respectively fed back as cross feedback signals to the .theta..sub.Y and .theta..sub.X control devices. A rotational speed detecting device for detecting a rotational number of the rotary shaft. Each of the control devices includes a break frequency and gain value varying device which has a break frequency not larger than a reply frequency of the entire control apparatus with respect to the cross feedback signal, the var…
