Abstract: A radiation emitting device for emitting light may include a laser light source configured to emit light along an emitting direction, and a non-imaging optical system arranged downstream of the laser light source in the emitting direction. The optical system may include a plurality of optical elements arranged along the emitting direction for shaping a radiation characteristic of the radiation emitting device in a horizontal direction and a vertical direction perpendicular to the horizontal direction, such that the radiation characteristic is asymmetrical along the vertical direction. A first optical element of the optical system may be configured to cause spreading of the light along the horizontal direction; a second optical element of the optical system may be configured to cause collimation of the light along the vertical direction, and a third optical element of the optical system may be configured to cause radiation asymmetry along the vertical direction.

Abstract: The tension element position sensor includes three housing elements, wherein the two outer housing elements are configured pot shaped with a base towards a center housing component, wherein one element is the spring motor and the other is the rotation angle sensor. Thus the rotation angle sensor includes two Hall sensors, wherein an encoder magnet rotates as a function of the rotation of the winding drum opposite to the faces of the Hall sensors on the face side of one respective gear of two gears meshing with one another. Herein the arrangement of the gears and circuit boards in the receiver of this lateral housing component is of particular importance. Also the spring motor can be completely preassembled and stored in a closed manner.

Abstract: To provide a thin and slender magnetic angle sensor, a main circuit board is disposed in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the sensor. This sensor element in form of a chip is supported on a sensor circuit board, which is positioned transversely to the main circuit board at the forward narrow side of the main circuit board.

Abstract: The rotational position of an encoder magnet can be scanned over more than 360° by respective sensor elements in that magnets are disposed on different stages of a suitable transmission, in particular of a differential transmission, and the magnets are scanned by separate sensor elements, whose signals are computed with one another and yield a total number of revolutions. In particular, when an assembly of this type shall be built very small, undesirable magnetic interferences for the sensor elements have to be avoided through flux conductor elements since the interferences distort the measurement results. Thus, a differentiation is made between active and passive flux conductor elements.

Abstract: In order to be able to measure over more than 360° with a magnetic angle sensor, it is proposed not to adjust the distance between the encoder magnet and the sensor element in addition to the rotation, e.g. by means of a thread, like in the prior art, but to maintain said distance constant, but instead to adjust a magnetic variator with respect to its axial distance from the sensor element, or also in transversal direction, which variator can be a flux conductor or also a secondary magnet.

Abstract: To be able to measure the angular deviation simultaneously in two directions in space a magneto-sensitive sensor unit on the one hand (that can measure the magnetic flux density in at least two directions in space or orthogonal to each other) and a magnet on the other hand are moved relatively to each other, wherein one of both elements are provided in such a way that it aligns itself directly or indirectly according to the gravity. An optimal measuring result is achieved by guiding one of both elements on a defined, reproducible surface so that the center axis of this element is directed always to the center axis of the other element.
