Multiturn angle measuring device

摘要

Multi-turn angle of rotation measurement instrument has a sampling unit for determining the angular position of the input shaft and further measurement bodies (11-13) for use in determination of the number of revolutions executed by the shaft. The input gear wheel (40) connected to the input shaft is arranged so that its rotation angle is not parallel to that of the first gear wheel (41). Also the number of teeth on the input gear wheel is small that the number on the first gear wheel. Subsequent gear wheels are parallel to the input shaft and the drive for the first gear wheel as well as the second gear wheel are skew-gears.
