Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of eddy current induction angle sensors, and more specifically, to an eddy current induction angle sensor. Background Art
[0002] Currently, mainstream angle sensors on the market all use the Hall effect principle. Angle sensors using this principle are affected by a variety of factors in their operating environment: 1. The influence of the ambient magnetic field: The voltage signal output by the Hall effect sensor is related to the strength and direction of the surrounding magnetic field. If the strength or direction of the magnetic field in the surrounding environment changes, the output signal will also be affected. 2. The influence of the ambient temperature: The output signal and sensitivity of the Hall effect sensor will change with changes in temperature. Therefore, in actual application, it is necessary to calibrate it according to the actual ambient temperature. 3. The influence of the Hall effect element itself: Parameters such as the sensitivity, linearity, and response time of the Hall effect sensor will also affect its accuracy.
[0003] Therefore, the application environment of the Hall principle structure angle sensor is subject to certain restrictions. Low temperature, high temperature environment, and the environment with magnetic field will affect the accuracy of the sensor.
[0004] The eddy current induction principle angle sensor on the market cannot cover a 360° detection range, and is generally in the range of 0°-60°. Utility Model Content
[0005] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology, the utility model provides an eddy current induction angle sensor, which can effectively eliminate the influence of high and low temperatures and surrounding magnetic fields on the sensor, and ensure that the sensor accuracy is not affected in high and low temperature environments and the presence of magnetic fields in the surrounding environment; it can effectively avoid the fact that the accuracy of traditional Hall angle sensors depends on the accuracy of the Hall element itself to determine the accuracy of the angle sensor, so as to adapt to the different uses of the angle sensor and the requirements for accuracy, differentiate the production of sensors, and achieve limited value to meet the needs of different users for different accuracy requirements; and the use of a bipolar target wheel structure and the software adopting a "cursor algorithm" can effectively achieve the advantage of 360° detection range coverage of the entire circular cycle.
[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention provides the following technical solution: an eddy current induction angle sensor includes a single-stage target wheel, an eddy current induction coil 1 is installed on the upper surface of the single-stage target wheel, a PCB board is installed on the eddy current induction coil 1, a multi-stage target wheel is installed on the upper surface of the PCB board, and an eddy current induction coil 2 is installed on the lower surface of the multi-stage target wheel.
[0007] As a preferred technical solution of the eddy current induction angle sensor of the present invention, a target wheel rotating shaft is installed in the middle of the PCB board and the multi-stage target wheel.
[0008] As a preferred technical solution of the eddy current induction angle sensor of the present invention, the single-stage target wheel has one stage.
[0009] As a preferred technical solution of the eddy current induction angle sensor of the present invention, the multi-stage target wheel has multiple stages.
[0010] As a preferred technical solution of the eddy current induction angle sensor of the present invention, the number of stages of the multi-stage target wheel is a multiple of three.
[0011] As a preferred technical solution of the eddy current induction angle sensor of the present invention, the multi-stage target wheel and the single-stage target wheel are connected by a target wheel rotating shaft.

[0014] 2. The utility model realizes the function of angle sensor by using the principle of eddy current induction. The detection accuracy of the sensor can be improved by adjusting the number of poles of the "multi-stage target wheel". It can effectively avoid the traditional Hall angle sensor whose accuracy depends on the accuracy of the Hall element itself. Therefore, it can adapt to the different uses of the angle sensor and the demand for accuracy, differentiate the production of sensors, and achieve limited value to meet the needs of different users with different accuracy requirements.
