摘要:
A non-contact position sensor includes a plurality of magnets, at least one magnetic sensor element, and an object to be detected. The plurality of magnets form a magnetic circuit which includes a U-shaped first magnetic body, a U-shaped second magnetic body, and the plurality of magnets. The plurality of magnets are disposed between the two U-shaped magnetic bodies. The magnetic sensor element is held by the two U-shaped magnetic bodies.
摘要:
A non-contact type position sensor enhanced in characteristics. A first magnetic element has a first magnetic detecting part at one end side thereof. A first magnet has one pole thereof fixed to the other side of the first magnetic element. A second magnetic element is positioned underneath the first magnetic element, and has a second magnetic detecting part at one end side thereof, and has the other pole of the first magnet at the other end side thereof. A third magnetic element is positioned substantially on circles concentric with the first magnetic element, and has a third magnetic detecting part at the one end side thereof. A second magnet has one pole fixed to the other end side of the third magnetic element. A fourth magnetic element is positioned underneath the third magnetic element, and has a fourth magnetic detecting part at one end side thereof, and also has the other pole of the second magnet at the other end side thereof. A magnetic detecting element is positioned between the first and second magnetic detecting parts, and is positioned between the third and fourth magnetic detecting parts.
摘要:
A position sensor includes a shaft to be detected, a first magnet being fixed to the shaft and having a first polarity vector parallel to an axis of the shaft, a second magnet being disposed opposite to the first magnet and having a second polarity vector crossing the first polarity vector substantially orthogonally three-dimensionally, and first and second semiconductor magnetoresistive elements being disposed over the second magnet and functioning as a magnetoelectric transducer having a magnetosensitive axis substantially orthogonal to the first and second polarity vectors. The first and second elements generate an output responsive to an axial movement of the shaft.
