    摘要: A bracket and washer combination providing secure holding and positioning of a magnetic sensor, wherein an optimal air gap is automatically set as the washer is brought into a slot of the bracket due to facial interaction therebetween. In one embodiment, the sidewalls of the slot have teeth of predetermined pitch, while the washer has smooth sidewalls. In a second embodiment, the sidewalls of the washer have teeth of a predetermined pitch angle, while the sidewalls of the slot are smooth. The member having toothed sidewalls is formed of a material harder than the member having smooth sidewalls. The washer and slot are dimensioned so that the sidewalls of the washer tightly abut the sidewalls of the slot, wherein the teeth of the toothed sidewalls inscribe corresponding grooves into the smooth sidewalls as the washer is pressed into the slot along a transverse axis. Consequently, as the corresponding grooves are inscribed, the washer sidewalls are caused to move in relation to the slot sidewalls in a direction parallel to the pitch of the teeth, resulting in a relative movement between the washer and the bracket along a longitudinal axis. However, since the washer is affixed by a bolt so that it is constrained from moving along the longitudinal axis, the relative movement is provided by the bracket moving along the longitudinal axis in relation to the washer.

    摘要: A device is provided which is capable of generating a surface that at least partially conforms to the contour of an article. The surface is defined by the ends of a number of threaded members which are supported within a suitable support structure. The threaded members are aligned so as to be substantially parallel to and threadably engaged with each other. As a result, rotation of an individual threaded member will cause that threaded member to be longitudinally moved relative to its adjacent threaded members and the support structure, without displacing an adjacent threaded member. The surface can be readily configured manually or automatically to serve as a die or mold cavity when the entire surface has been generated to conform to the entire contour of the article. Alternatively, the surface can be generated so as to provide a suitable fixture surface for supporting and securing a workpiece during a machining or welding operation. Due to its method of generation, the surface can be quickly and repeatedly reconfigured to conform to an article or workpiece having a completely different contour.

    摘要: Position of a rotatable automotive part is sensed with a trio of magnetic field intensity sensors disposed adjacent a ring that rotates with the automotive part, the ring comprising alternating permanent magnet sections with at least one localized magnetic field depression corresponding to a synchronization position of the part wherein the sensors are spaced along the direction of ring rotation so that the relative phase between the output signals of a first pair of the sensors as indicated by the relative output signal magnitude indicates incremental displacement of the part, and so that a significant difference in magnitude between the output signal of a second pair of the sensors indicates the synchronization position.

    摘要: A magnetic shaft angle encoder uses a gear or toothed wheel for inducing periodic electrical pulses in an inductive pickup. The teeth are evenly spaced and every tooth generates a signal as it passes the pickup. A reference tooth is slightly shorter than the others so that the period of the pulse it generates is shorter than the others and is easily detected to obtain an accurate shaft index position. Since a pulse is produced for every tooth, the pulses provide an excellent means of instantaneous speed sensing.

    摘要: The load monitoring circuit includes a solid state current sensor including a positive temperature coefficient (PTC) resistor and a heater resistor. The heater resistor is connected in series with the load and in parallel with the PTC resistor. A third resistor is connected in series with the PTC to form a voltage divider. Current drawn by the load through the heater resistor raises the temperature of the PTC resistor above its anomaly temperature causing the voltage at the divider junction to abruptly switch from a high to a low state to indicate the status of the load.
