Abstract
Abstract In order to pick up in a simple manner which is reliable, and under rough operating conditions, a rotation of the rotor in a miniature motor excited by permanent magnets with magnet segments at a tangential distance with magnet segments distributed at the bore circumference of the stator, it is proposed to arrange in at least one pole gap between the magnet segment a measuring coil. A signal is induced by the pulsation of the stray field due to rotation of the rotor. The measuring coil is advantageously arranged in a non-magnetic, preferably plastic support body held between the individual poles or the magnet segments respectively.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim
117 words
A rotation detection or speed pick-up device for a miniature d-c motor excited by a permanent magnet with magnet segments distributed over the inner circumference of the stator housing, said magnet segments being separated by pole gaps, and with a rotor which is slotted or serrated over its circumference, the device comprising: an axially insertable non magnetic plastic support body held between the individual poles of the permanent magnet segments within the stator housing; and a measuring coil coupled to said support body and disposed in one of said pole gaps for generating a signal induced by pulsation of the stray field when the rotor rotates and having a frequency corresponding to the speed of the rotor.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
117 words
A rotation detection or speed pick-up device for a miniature d-c motor excited by a permanent magnet with magnet segments distributed over the inner circumference of the stator housing, said magnet segments being separated by pole gaps, and with a rotor which is slotted or serrated over its circumference, the device comprising: an axially insertable non magnetic plastic support body held between the individual poles of the permanent magnet segments within the stator housing; and a measuring coil coupled to said support body and disposed in one of said pole gaps for generating a signal induced by pulsation of the stray field when the rotor rotates and having a frequency corresponding to the speed of the rotor.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
35 words
The rotation detection device according to claim 1, further comprising an induction iron core surrounded by said measuring coil, said coil extending circumferentially along a distance smaller than the slot width of the slotted rotor.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
31 words
The rotation detection according to claim 1, wherein the measuring coil and the iron core are plugged into pockets of the plastic support body and are held by a detent lock.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
43 words
The rotation detection device according to claim 1 wherein the measuring coil has measuring coil terminals (41, 41) connected to the ends of the measuring coil, said coil terminals being held in the plastic support body for connection to an external connection line.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
37 words
The rotation detection device according to claim 4, wherein the measuring coil terminals can be connected to jack contacts in the assembly of the miniature d-c motor with corresponding brush bridge mating contacts on the commutator side.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
43 words
The rotation detection device according to claim 1 wherein the plastic support body is provided with at least one axial guide slot and the motor housing has least one corresponding axial guide dog whereby the guide dog is disposed in said guide slot.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
23 words
The rotation detection according to claim 1 wherein the plastic support body is clamped between opposite tangential ends of two adjacent magnet segments.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
30 words
The rotation detection device according to claim 7, wherein the plastic support body is secured by means of detent snap hooks to the axial ends of the adjacent magnet segments.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
98 words
A rotation detection device for a miniature d-c motor excited electrically by individual exciter poles distributed over the inner circumference of a stator housing, separated by pole gaps, and with a rotor which is slotted or serrated over its circumference, the device comprising: an axially insertable non-magnetic plastic support body which is held within one of said pole gaps between said individual exciter poles within the stator housing; and a measuring coil, located on said support body, which generates a signal induced by a slot frequency pulsation of the stray field within the gap when the rotor rotates.
