  • Patent number: 5761822
    Abstract: The invention relates to a measuring cord displacement transducer. A sealed measuring cord displacement transducer is proposed which has a measuring cord, a cord drum, a flat spiral spring which, with the cord drum, is arranged coaxially in a rotationally fixed manner on the same shaft, having a rotary encoder connected to the shaft and a housing surrounding the displacement transducer with a mechanical interior and an electrical interior which are separate and spaced apart axially in the longitudinal direction of the shaft, so that the cord drum and the flat spiral spring can be accommodated in the mechanical interior and the rotary encoder and the associated electronics can be accommodated in the electrical interior. In this case, the housing of the mechanical interior is formed by two shell-like, respectively one-piece bearing shells.

  • Patent number: 5473237
    Abstract: A robust angle-position sensor for the absolute measurement of the angle of rotating or angle position, respectively over several revolutions has a resolver and further inductive angle of rotation sensor elements. Switching elements of a time multiplex device are in the form of toroidal core chokes. The electronic processing circuit is arranged at a point remote from the point of measurement.
