[0035] figure 1 with figure 2 The position detector and the actuator using the position detector in the first embodiment of the present invention are shown in .

[0036] For example, the actuator 1 is used as a driving power source for driving a throttle valve (throttle valve) of a vehicle (not shown). The actuator 1 is provided with a motor 2 , a housing 5 , a cover 6 , an electronic control unit (hereinafter, “ECU”) 11 , a rotating body 12 , a position detector 10 , and other components.

[0037] Such as figure 1 As shown, the motor 2 has an output shaft 3, a motor terminal 4 and the like. Electric power is supplied to the motor 2 via the motor terminal 4 . The motor 2 rotates by receiving electric power from the terminal 4 . The rotation of the motor 2 is output from an output shaft 3 . For example, the output shaft 3 is connected to a throttle valve through a gear set (not shown) or the like. Therefore, when the motor 2 rotates, the throttle valve also rotates.

Abstract

A position detector includes a magnet disposed between first ends of first and second magnetic flux transmission parts and a magnet disposed between second ends of the first and second magnetic flux transmission parts. The position detector also includes a Hall IC that is positioned within a gap and moves relative to a rotating body. The Hall IC detects a density of the magnetic flux from the first and second magnetic flux transmission parts and outputs a signal according to the density of the magnetic flux passing therethrough in order to detect a position of a detection object. A minimum magnetic flux density position within the gap may be shifted to a position having the highest detection accuracy such that the position detection accuracy of the detection object is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure generally relates to a position detector for detecting the position of a detection object. Background technique [0002] In general, magnetic position detectors detect changes in the position of a detection object relative to a reference component. Magnetic position detectors may utilize magnetic flux generators such as magnets. For example, a position detector disclosed in Patent Document 1 (ie, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. JP-A-H08-292004) is configured to form a magnetic flux transmission part having two magnets provided on a reference part. closed magnetic circuit. In this structure, the two magnets are respectively bound by the ends of the two magnetic flux transmission members facing each other. A spill magnetic flux flow from one transfer part to the other takes place in the gap between the respective ends of the two flux transfer parts. The magnetic flux density detector is configured to move together with the detect...
