[0016] See also Figure 1-2 The utility model provides a technical solution: an inductive angle sensor structure, including a sensor base 1, an interface 1 2, an interface 2 3, an active seat 4 and a driven seat 5, wherein the interface 1 2, the interface 2 3 and the sensor base 1 are an integrated structure and are arranged on the upper part of the sensor base 1, and the active seat 4 and the driven seat 5 are arranged on the lower part of the sensor base 1; a driving gear 6 is arranged on the active seat 4, and a driven gear 7 is installed on the driven seat 5, and the driving gear 6 and the driven gear 7 are meshed with each other; a PCBA board is arranged inside the sensor base 1, and two groups of coils are arranged on the PCBA board, and the two groups of coils are respectively located on the upper part of the driving gear 6 and the driven gear 7; a metal tooth piece 1 8 is arranged on the surface of the driving gear 6, and a metal tooth piece 2 9 is arranged on the surface of the driven gear 7; the two groups of coils are respectively electrically connected to independent control chips, and the two groups of control chips are respectively connected to external controllers through the interface 1 2 and the interface 2 3.
[0017] Furthermore, the metal tooth plate 1 8 and the metal tooth plate 2 9 are annular structures as a whole, and the metal tooth plate 1 8 and the driving gear 6 are concentric structures, and the metal tooth plate 2 9 and the driven gear 7 are concentric structures.
[0018] Furthermore, the metal tooth plate 1 8 and the metal tooth plate 2 9 are both made of copper sheets, and a plurality of groups of racks are evenly arranged on the annular outer sides of the metal tooth plate 1 8 and the metal tooth plate 2 9, and the cross-section of the racks is a square structure.
[0019] Furthermore, the active seat 4 and the driven seat 5 are an integrated structure, and the sensor base 1, the interface 1 2, the interface 2 3, the active seat 4, and the driven seat 5 are all made of plastic materials.
[0020] Working principle: The angle sensor structure of this scheme adopts a redundant design, and there are two independent systems; the detected rotating shaft is connected to the active gear 6 through the active seat 4, and the rotation of the detected rotating shaft can drive the active gear 6 to rotate; the metal tooth piece 1 8 is set on the active gear 6, and when the active gear 6 rotates, it drives the metal tooth piece 1 8 to rotate, and at the same time drives the driven gear 7 to rotate, and then drives the metal tooth piece 2 9 to rotate, ensuring that the metal tooth piece 1 8 and the metal tooth piece 2 9 rotate synchronously; there are two sets of independent coils on the PCBA board in the sensor base 1 directly above the metal tooth piece 1 8 and the metal tooth piece 2 9, and the tooth piece rotates to cut the magnetic flux line and generate induced current; the control chip connected to the coil receives the current change, and after signal processing, the output signal is transmitted to the external controller through the connector connected to the interface 1 2 and the interface 2 3. The external controller processes and calculates the two sets of signals to verify each other and make corresponding responses.
[0021] The inductive angle sensor receives signals from two independent external metal teeth, which are processed by two independent circuit chips and then sent to the controller through two separate connectors. This can not only calibrate the accuracy of the sensor's self-signal, but also ensure that when one system fails, the other system can still be used, thereby greatly improving the accuracy and reliability of the sensor.
[0022] It is worth noting that the entire device is controlled by a main control button. Since the device matched with the control button is a common device and belongs to the existing mature technology, its electrical connection relationship and specific circuit structure will not be described in detail here.
