Abstract

Abstract A Wiegand wire forms part of a stator coil facing a rotor on which permanent magnets are located. The stator coil has two coil portions or coil sections which are wound or connected to provide opposing inductive outputs upon passage of the magnets in front of the coils to cancel each other, the Wiegand wire change of magnetization providing the additional read-out output, the amplitude of which will be independent of speed, but the recurrence rate will depend upon speed of the magnets passing the stator of transducer.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim 117 words
Pulse transducer to transduce a shaft speed into a series of electrical pulses, comprising a rotor (1) having a plurality of magnets (2) located thereon of alternate polarity; a stator including at least one coil (4) and comprising, in accordance with the invention, a Wiegand wire (5) surrounded by at least a portion of said coil (4), said coil having another portion not responsive to change of magnetic domain of the Wiegand wire upon passage of the magnets (2) of the rotor with respect thereto, said portions of the coil being so connected that the voltages induced in the coils due to passage of said magnets (2) of the rotor (1) oppose and essentially cancel each other.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 117 words
Pulse transducer to transduce a shaft speed into a series of electrical pulses, comprising a rotor (1) having a plurality of magnets (2) located thereon of alternate polarity; a stator including at least one coil (4) and comprising, in accordance with the invention, a Wiegand wire (5) surrounded by at least a portion of said coil (4), said coil having another portion not responsive to change of magnetic domain of the Wiegand wire upon passage of the magnets (2) of the rotor with respect thereto, said portions of the coil being so connected that the voltages induced in the coils due to passage of said magnets (2) of the rotor (1) oppose and essentially cancel each other.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 27 words
Transducer according to claim 1, wherein the stator includes two coils (3, 4) forming said coil sections, one of said coils (4) surrounding said Wiegand wire (5).
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 17 words
Transducer according to claim 2, wherein (FIG. 1) said coils are coaxial with respect to each other.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 25 words
Transducer according to claim 2, wherein (FIG. 3) each coil is located in a region facing a magnetic element of the rotor of different polarity.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 36 words
Transducer according to claim 2, wherein (FIG. 4) one of said coils (44) is located tangentially with respect to the rotor, and the other of said coils (43) is located radially with respect to the rotor.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 24 words
Transducer according to claim 2, wherein (FIGS. 1, 3) both coils (3, 4; 33, 34) are located radially with respect to the rotor (1).
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 19 words
Transducer according to claim 6, wherein (FIG. 1) both coils (3, 4) are coaxial with respect to each other.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 18 words
Transducer according to claim 2, wherein (FIG. 5) both coils are located tangentially with respect to the rotor.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 18 words
Transducer according to claim 1, further including a threshold stage (10) connected to the output of said transducer.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 18 words
Transducer according to claim 1, wherein said coil sections (3, 4) are inductively essentially separated from each other.
