Device for detecting position on travel path and in transmission of motor vehicle, has transducer magnet for generating magnetic flux density, and magnetic angle sensor for detecting flux density direction of magnetic flux density

摘要

The device (1) has a transducer magnet (2) for generating a magnetic flux density (B), and a magnetic angle sensor (3) for detecting a flux density direction (D) of the magnetic flux density at the location of the magnetic angle sensor. An evaluation unit is provided for determining the position of the transducer magnet from the flux density direction depending on a characteristic line for the flux density direction at the sensor location as a function of the position of the transducer magnet on the travel path. An independent claim is included for a method for detecting a position on a travel path and in a transmission of a motor vehicle.
