  • Publication number: 20240343298
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a steering system for a vehicle having a steering element. The steering element is linearly displaceable in a longitudinal direction of a central longitudinal axis of the steering element. A detection device for detecting a position of the steering element is also provided, the detection device having at least one rack section extending parallel to the central longitudinal axis. The rack section is linearly displaceable together with the steering element and the detection device has at least one detection gear wheel and a permanent magnet is fastened to the detection gear wheel. To be able to implement a compact and/or cost-efficient design and/or a true-power-on function, the detection gear wheel engages in the rack section.

  • Publication number: 20240308572
    Abstract: A steering system for a vehicle is disclosed, for example a steer-by-wire steering system or an electric power steering system. The steering system includes a linearly displaceable steering rod, a spindle nut which is coupled to the steering rod and which is rotatable to displace the steering rod, and a detection device for detecting a rotational position of the spindle nut. The detection device comprises a magnetic target object, which is directly or indirectly rotationally coupled to the spindle nut, a magnetic sensor for detecting the rotational position of the magnetic target object, and a revolution counter for detecting a number of revolutions of the magnetic target object. The magnetic sensor and the revolution counter are present in a common integrated circuit.

  • Publication number: 20220355863
    Abstract: A sensor apparatus (01) is for determining a rotation angle position of a rotatable shaft (02). The sensor apparatus (01) comprises a main gear wheel (03), which is coaxially coupled to the rotatable shaft (02), and a secondary gear wheel (04), which is arranged so as to be rotatably coupled on the main gear wheel (03). The sensor apparatus (01) furthermore comprises two targets (06, 07), each of which is arranged on a lateral face of the main gear wheel (03) or of the secondary gear wheel (04), and two rotation angle sensors (08, 09), which are arranged in the immediate vicinity of the main gear wheel (03) and the secondary gear wheel (04) on a circuit board (05). The angles of the main gear wheel (03) and of the secondary gear wheel (04) are determined and forwarded as an angular signal to an evaluating unit (10) arranged on the circuit board.
