Sensor for determining the longitudinal position of a vehicle seat has a magnetic field generator attached to a seat adjuster and a Hall sensor that generates a movement dependent electrical signal

摘要

The sensor (11) for recognition of position alterations of an adjuster or an activation element of an adjuster has a programmable Hall sensor (30) and a field generator (29) that is moved when the adjuster is moved. The Hall sensor detects the change in magnetic field density caused by movement of the field generator and converts it into an electrical signal. The field generator has magnetic and non-magnetic regions. The invention also relates to a corresponding vehicle seat.
