Position sensor to detect rotation position of shaft, e.g. steering wheel shaft; is coupled to shaft by driven gear and toothing or driving gear of shaft, which are coupled by elastic clamp clips

摘要

The sensor is coupled to the shaft by driven gears (4,14) and a toothing or driving gear (2) of the shaft. The driven gears and the driving gear are coupled by elastic clamp clips (17,18). Preferably, two rotation position sensors (3,13) are coupled to the driving gear and are supported in bearing elements pressed towards the shaft by the clamp clips. Preferably, the rotation axes of the sensors and the shaft lie in a common plane.
