Control device comprising a magnetic-field detector

Abstract

Abstract A control device for controlling the output signal of an electric circuit has a magnetic field detector 2 and a magnetic member 6. The magnetic field detector 2 has an electric component, to be precise a bridge circuit composed of resistors dependent on the magnetic field, whose resistance value varies as a function of the field strength of a varying magnetic field present on an end face 4 of the magnetic field detector. The magnetic member 6 is mounted on the end face of the magnetic field detector 2 capable of being displaced transversely above the end face 4. By displacing the magnetic member 6 with respect to the magnetic field detector 2, there is a change in the resistance value of the magnetic field detector, and this change in resistance is processed in the electric circuit in order to control the output signal. <IMAGE>
