Abstract: The torque detecting apparatus comprises an input shaft to which a torque is inputted, an output shaft for outputting the inputted torque, a connecting shaft for connecting the input shaft and the output shaft to transmit the torque, a coil for detecting a torque applied from the input shaft to the connecting shaft based on a torsional angle which arises at the connecting shaft, and a holding cylinder for holding the coil coaxially, wherein the holding cylinder has inside thereof a recess extending in the circumferential direction, and the coil is fitted in the recess. Projections for supporting the holding cylinder at a predetermined position are provided on the outer surface of an axial portion which does not have the recess. Accurate torque detection can be effected even when pressure applied to the projections provided at the holding cylinder constituting the torque detecting apparatus is changed.

Abstract: An insulation film whose requisite constituent elements are first elements and a second element. The first elements include B, P, O and Fe. The second element can generate cations whose hexa-coordinated ion radius, defined by Shannon, R. D., is 0.073 nm or more, and which are bivalent or more. Since the second element having a large ion radius is incorporated into network formers made from the first elements, it is possible to improve the heat resistance of the insulation film.

Abstract: A magnetic first detecting cylinder covers a magnetism leakage preventing member covering a first shaft. A second detecting cylinder is rotated along with a second shaft connected to the first shaft and one end thereof is opposed to one end of the first detecting cylinder with a clearance. A reluctance with respect to a passing magnetic flux in a first magnetic circuit constituted by generating the magnetic flux passing the first detecting cylinder and the second detecting cylinder by a first coil, is changed in accordance with an elastic relative rotational amount by a change in a transmitting torque of the two shafts. The magnetism leakage preventing member is molded from a synthetic resin material injected into a molding die. The first shaft and the first detecting cylinder are integrated to the magnetism leakage preventing member molded by being inserted into the molding die before injecting the synthetic resin material.
