  • Publication number: 20230391401
    Abstract: An angular position sensor assembly for determining an angular position of a shaft when the shaft rotates about an axis of rotation of the shaft. A rotational encoder is connected to the shaft in force transmission and a rotational sensor detects a movement of the rotational encoder. On the shaft, a non-rotatable first gear part of a gearbox of the angular position sensor assembly is arranged and the rotational encoder is formed as a second gear part of the gearbox engaged with the first gear part. The gearbox simultaneously forms a fixed mechanical stop of the shaft on a first end of an angular position range of the shaft when the shaft rotates counterclockwise and on a second end of the angular position range of the shaft when the shaft rotates clockwise.

  • Publication number: 20230356776
    Abstract: An elongate body for a vehicle system of a vehicle, the body having at least one cursor band for an inductive linear displacement sensor, the at least one cursor band extending in the direction of a longitudinal extent of the body, the at least one cursor band being designed with a plurality of electrically conductive cursor pads in order to inductively couple at least one excitation coil to at least one sensor coil of a stator of the linear displacement sensor and being designed with non-coupling sections which are electrically less conductive or non-conductive with respect to the cursor pads, the cursor pads being spaced apart from one another in the direction of the longitudinal extent in each case by the non-coupling sections, and the cursor pads of the cursor band being formed on the body.
