[0006] In a preferred embodiment, the metal casing has a hollow groove inside, and a dedicated cable is provided on the inner wall of the hollow groove. One end of the dedicated cable is fixedly connected to one side of the circuit board.
[0007] In a preferred embodiment, the inner wall of the end of the metal housing away from the dedicated cable is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the sensing housing, and one side of the sensing housing is fixedly connected to one side of the can-shaped single-opening ferrite core.
[0008] In a preferred embodiment, the can-shaped single-opening ferrite core has a groove inside, and the inner wall of the groove is fixedly connected to one end of the central column.
[0009] In a preferred embodiment, a single-sided groove is provided on one side of the groove, and the inner wall of the groove is movably connected to the outer wall of the single-strand frameless coil.
[0010] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0011] 1. In this utility model, the single-opening ferrite core in the can shape has only a single-sided slot, which can shield interference signals in actual working conditions and ensure that the sensor will not malfunction.
[0012] 2. In this utility model, the inner wall of the single-strand frameless coil does not have a frame support, which allows it to be used in a very small space in terms of manufacturing process, and at the same time, it can make the performance parameters of the single-strand frameless coil more stable.
