Problems solved by technology

However, when such a GMR element is used in a switching device, there is a problem that the limitation of the free layer makes the change of the resistance value of the GMR element insensitive, and the switching operation cannot be performed quickly.

Abstract

The present invention relates to a non-contact type switching device which can perform on-off operation rapidly even using a GMR element. The non-contact type switching device (1) comprises a magnet (M) reciprocating motion according to operation of manipulator and a GMR element (65) detecting the magnetic field direction coming from the magnet (M), an output signal is switched according the magnetic field direction detected by the GMR element (65), and a magnetization direction of the GMR element (65) is changed according to the magnetic field coming from the magnet (M) only.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a non-contact switch device, and more particularly, to a non-contact switch device that switches an output signal by detecting the direction of a magnetic field from a reciprocating magnet with a GMR element. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, a small magnetic induction switch has been proposed, in which a Hall IC, a movable member to which a magnet is fixed, and a coil spring supporting the movable member are arranged in a switch case. When the upper end is pressed, the output signal of the Hall IC is changed from OFF to ON according to the position of the magnet fixed to the movable member (for example, refer to Patent Document 1). [0003] On the other hand, there has been proposed a magnetic sensor utilizing a giant magnetoresistance effect (GMR element) in which an output signal is changed by detecting the direction of a magnetic field from a magnet (for example, refer to Patent Document 2). In a magnet...
