Sensor arrangement for air intake control flap for IC engine using magnet attached to shaft of control flap cooperating with contactless sensor fitted in centering ring integral with shaft bearing element

摘要

The sensor arrangement uses a magnet (3), fitted to the shaft (4) of the air intake control flap (1) and cooperating with a contactless sensor (2) for providing a flap position signal, the sensor fitted in a centering ring (11) formed integral with a bearing element (6) for the control flap shaft. The sensor housing (12) can be fitted in the centering ring via an access opening (14) in the assembled air intake housing.
