Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Sensoranordnung, die zur Erfassung rotatorischer Bewegungen von Messobjekten ausgebildet ist, mit zumindest einem Magneten sowie einem magnetosensitiven Sensor, gemäß den Merkmalen des Oberbegriffes des Patentanspruches 1.The The invention relates to a sensor arrangement which is rotatable for detecting Movements of measuring objects is formed, with at least one magnet and a magneto-sensitive sensor, according to the features of the preamble of claim 1.
Solche Drehwinkel-Sensoranordnungen, die auf magnetosensitiver Basis, insbesondere mittels Hall-Sonden, funktionieren, sind grundsätzlich bekannt. Derzeit werden insbesondere große zu erfassende Winkelbereiche (zum Beispiel 270 Grad) nur mit aufwendigen und kostenintensiven Drehwinkel-Systemen realisiert. Außerdem sind für die Abdeckung solch großer Winkelbereiche mehr als nur ein magnetosensitiver Sensor erforderlich.Such Angular-angle sensor arrangements based on magneto-sensitive, in particular using Hall probes, work, are basically known. Currently especially big to be detected angle ranges (for example, 270 degrees) only with elaborate and cost-intensive rotation angle systems realized. Besides, they are for the Cover such great Angular ranges more than just a magneto-sensitive sensor required.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Sensoranordnung, die zur Erfassung rotatorischer Bewegungen von Messobjekten ausgebildet ist, bereit zu stellen, die auch große Winkelbereiche ohne hohen Aufwand und kostengünstig erfassbar macht.Of the Invention is based on the object, a sensor arrangement, the is designed for detecting rotational movements of measuring objects, to provide, which is also great Angle areas without high effort and cost makes detectable.
Diese Aufgabe ist durch die Merkmale des Patentanspruches 1 gelöst.These The object is solved by the features of claim 1.
Erfindungsgemäß ist vorgesehen, dass der Magnet in einem Magnetfeldgeber eingebettet und kreisförmig ausgebildet ist, wobei sich der Querschnitt des Magneten in Umfangsrichtung stetig ändert. Damit ist es möglich, mit nur einer Drehbewegung (über 360 Grad) oder auch mehreren Drehbewegungen, die aufeinander folgen, einen entsprechend großen Winkelbereich zu erfassen. Gleichzeitig bleibt der Aufbau der Sensoranordnung einfach und kostengünstig, da der Magnet (entweder ein permanenter Dauermagnet aus metallischem Werkstoff oder Kunststoff oder einer entsprechenden Legierung oder ein Elektromagnet) geschützt in dem Magnetfeldgeber eingebettet ist. Dadurch ist es ohne weiteres möglich, den Magnetfeldgeber an dem Messobjekt zu befestigen, wobei es alternativ auch denkbar ist, dass das Messobjekt selber den Magnetfeldgeber bildet. In vorteilhafter Weise ist der Magnetfeldgeber aus Spritzgegossenen Kunststoff hergestellt und wird als separate Einheit an dem Messobjekt befestigt oder schon mit der Herstellung des Messobjektes selber hergestellt.According to the invention, it is provided that the magnet embedded in a magnetic encoder and formed circular is, wherein the cross section of the magnet in the circumferential direction constantly changing. This makes it possible with only one turning movement (over 360 degrees) or several rotational movements that follow each other, a correspondingly large To capture angle range. At the same time, the structure of the sensor arrangement remains simple and inexpensive, because the magnet (either a permanent permanent magnet of metallic Material or plastic or a corresponding alloy or an electromagnet) protected is embedded in the magnetic encoder. It's easy by doing so possible, to attach the magnetic encoder to the measurement object, where it is alternative It is also conceivable that the measurement object itself the magnetic field transmitter forms. Advantageously, the magnetic encoder is injection molded Made of plastic and is used as a separate unit on the test object fixed or already with the production of the measurement object itself produced.
Weiterhin ist erfindungswesentlich, dass sich der Querschnitt des Magneten in Umfangsrichtung stetig ändert. Dabei wird je nach Signalauswertung der sich in Umfangsrichtung stetig ändernde Querschnitt so gewählt, dass er sich in Umfangsrichtung, also in seinem radialen Verlauf, stetig linear oder alternativ stetig nicht linear verändert. Dies hat zur Folge, dass sich das Ausgangssignal des magnetosensitiven Sensors, beispielsweise der Hall-Sonde, je nach Drehrichtung ansteigt oder abfällt, bis es zu einem Sprung kommt, bei dem sich der Verlauf des Ausgangssignals wieder umkehrt.Farther is essential to the invention that the cross section of the magnet constantly changes in the circumferential direction. Depending on the signal evaluation, this will be in the circumferential direction constantly changing Cross section chosen so that he is in the circumferential direction, ie in its radial course, continuously linear or alternatively non-linearly varied. This As a result, the output signal of the magneto-sensitive Sensor, for example, the Hall probe, depending on the direction of rotation increases or drops off, until it comes to a jump, in which the course of the output signal reversed again.
Mit der erfindungsgemäßen Anordnung können somit Winkelbereiche bis zu 360 Grad bei einfachem Aufbau der Anordnung gemessen werden.With the inventive arrangement can thus angle ranges up to 360 degrees with a simple structure of the arrangement be measured.
Eine bevorzugte Anwendung ist in der Fahrzeugtechnik zu sehen, hier insbesondere bei Personen- oder Lastkraftwagen, genauso wie bei Arbeitsfahrzeugen (automotive Winkelmaessung). Beispielhaft sei die Messung des Anstellwinkels einer Heckklappe eines Personenkraftwagens genannt. Mit der erfindungsgemäßen Anordnung wird es somit bei vereinfachtem Aufbau ermöglicht, die Stellung der Heckklappe zu ermitteln. Dies ist gerade dann wichtig, um nicht nur die Endstellungen (geschlossen oder geöffnet) zu erfassen, sondern auch eine Vorverraststellung. Diese liegt vor, wenn der Benutzer des Fahrzeuges die Heckklappe nahezu geschlossen hat (die Drehfalle der Heckklappe befindet sich dann in vorveriegelter Stellung) und eine motorbetriebene Anordnung die Heckklappe in ihre geschlossene und damit endgültig verriegelte Position bringt (sogenannte Zuziehhilfe). Gleiches gilt auch für eine motorbetriebene Tür oder Heckklappe, die mittels Motorkraft nicht nur in die geschlossene, sondernauch in die geöffnete Stellung gebracht werden kann.A preferred application is to be seen in vehicle technology, in particular here in passenger cars or trucks, as well as in work vehicles (automotive angle measurement). An example is the measurement of the angle of attack called a tailgate of a passenger car. With the arrangement according to the invention Thus, it is possible with a simplified structure, the position of the tailgate to investigate. This is important then, not just the end positions (closed or open) to capture, but also a Vorverraststellung. This is when the user of the vehicle almost closes the tailgate has (the catch of the tailgate is then in pre-locked Position) and a motorized arrangement the tailgate in her closed and thus final locked position brings (so-called Zuziehhilfe). same for also for a motorized door or tailgate, which by means of engine power not only in the closed, but also in the open Position can be brought.
Zwei Ausführungsbeispiele einer erfindungsgemäßen Sensoranordnung, auf die die Erfindung jedoch nicht beschränkt ist, sind im Folgenden erläutert und anhand der Figuren gezeigt.Two embodiments a sensor arrangement according to the invention, however, to which the invention is not limited are hereinafter explained and shown by the figures.
