Abstract

Abstract A frequency transmitter of high accuracy for the indication of the rotating condition of wheels, especially for brake slippage control installations in motor vehicles, in which a rotating part driven by the wheel cooperates by means of teeth with the poles of a stationary magnetic part which may also be provided with teeth, whereby the rotating part is connected with its drive by an axially elastic cross spring that permits a radial play.
