Abstract

Abstract A compact rotation detecting device in which a rotor providing a set and a reset permanent magnets, a disk providing a plurality of wires having Wiegand effect in the radial direction of the disk, and spiral coils mounted on plural insulating disks are assembled in a housing case in a stack fashion, the spiral coils being automatically connected in series by the assembly, and upon rotation of the rotor pulse frequency proportional to the amount of the rotor's rotation being derived from the series connection of the spiral coils.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 141 words
A rotation detecting device comprising a housing case, a lid of said housing case, a rotor having a set and a reset permanent magnets and a shaft for rotating said rotor, a disk providing a plurality of wires having Wiegand effect in the radial direction of said disk, coil blocks having an insulating plate mounting spiral coils for producing a pulse current by operation of said wires having Wiegand effect upon the rotation of said rotor, and terminals mounted on said insulating plate of said coil block and extended from a first surface on which said spiral coil is mounted to a second surface opposit to said first surface of said insulating plate for automatically connecting said spiral coils on said coil blocks in series upon assembly of said coil blocks by insertion of said coil blocks into said housing case.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 141 words
A rotation detecting device comprising a housing case, a lid of said housing case, a rotor having a set and a reset permanent magnets and a shaft for rotating said rotor, a disk providing a plurality of wires having Wiegand effect in the radial direction of said disk, coil blocks having an insulating plate mounting spiral coils for producing a pulse current by operation of said wires having Wiegand effect upon the rotation of said rotor, and terminals mounted on said insulating plate of said coil block and extended from a first surface on which said spiral coil is mounted to a second surface opposit to said first surface of said insulating plate for automatically connecting said spiral coils on said coil blocks in series upon assembly of said coil blocks by insertion of said coil blocks into said housing case.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 61 words
A rotation detecting device according to claim 1, further comprising a ring to be mounted to the bearing mounted in said housing case and used for said shaft, which ring acting as a fastener for fastening said disk having wires and said coil blocks with said housing case thereby to increase the electric connection between said spiral coils and said terminals.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 102 words
A rotation detecting device according to claim 1, further comprising cavities provided at peripheral portions of said disk having said wires and said coil blocks for achieving a predetermined alignment between said disk having said wires and said coil blocks in order to correctly contact said spiral coils with said terminals on said insulating plates and a projected portion provided on the inner surface of said housing case for contacting said cavities of said disk having said wires and said coil blocks with said projected portion thereby to achieve said predetermined alignment between said disk having said wire and said coil blocks.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 35 words
A rotation detecting device according to claim 1, wherein said spiral coil is comprised of a slight strip of copper foil deposited on said insulating plate by a suitably adhesive material in a spiral shape.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 31 words
A rotation detecting device according to claim 1, wherein said spiral coil is comprised of a thin conductive strip printed and wired on an insulating board as a printed wiring board.
