Device for determining the position of an electronic selection lever of a motor vehicle gearbox has an array of Hall sensors mounted using a lead frame in a curved selection housing so that production costs are reduced

摘要

Device for determining the position of a switching or selection lever (9) that has a permanent magnet (10) attached to its end as a position signaler comprises a number of Hall element position sensors (4) supported on a metallic support or lead frame. The frame also forms the electrical connection and supply lines for the Hall elements. The Hall elements and frame are encapsulated in a plastic housing (7) with the elements at different distances from a lower reference frame.
