Inductive sensor based on the nonius principle

摘要

Sensor (2), in particular angle of rotation sensor, comprising for detecting the position of a moving element within a moving range of the element: - to generate an excitation coil (20), which is supplied with an AC voltage (Ù~) a corresponding to the AC excitation field, - at least one receiver coil (40a, 40b) connected to the excitation coil (20) are coupled in such a way so that the excitation field in the receiving coil (40a, 40b) a voltage (Uout1, Uout2) induced, and - a position sensor unit (30) which is connected to the moving element and by a relative movement of the position indicator unit (30) to the receiving coils (40a, 40b) is a periodic voltage in the receiving coil can be produced within a measuring range, characterized in that by means of the position sensor unit (30) and / or the receiver coil (40a, 40b) of different size ranges are defined, which are a fraction of the range of movement.
