Housing for a wheel speed sensor

摘要

A sensor for detecting the angular velocity of a rotating member. The sensor includes a bobbin having an exterior defining an annular recess and a coil within the recess. The bobbin also has a generally cylindrical aperture and supports a probe and a permanent magnet in the aperture. The housing is secured to the bobbin and the housing and bobbin include tapered inner and outer surfaces, respectively, that are made to form a wedge fit seal between the bobbin and the housing to prevent the introduction of molding material during the overmolding process. The bobbin also includes supports for supporting the lead wires extending between the coil and the terminals.
