DEVICE FOR SENSING THE LINEAR POSITION OF A TRANSMISSION MEMBER IN THE FORM OF A CABLE ATTACHED TO A LEVER OF A MOTOR VEHICLE GEARBOX

摘要

The desired objective is to detect the position of said lever, said member being coupled at least at one of its ends to a terminator of a cable (1) slideably mounted in a sheath terminator (2) which is fixed. The device comprises a magnet (5) mounted inside a tube (1) which constitutes the cable terminator and a Hall-effect sensor (6) positioned on part of the sheath terminator in order to detect movement between the cable terminator and the sheath terminator corresponding to a movement of said lever.
