An apparatus for sensing rotational parameters of a shaft relative to a member, the apparatus has a bearing having an inner race with an inner diameter, the inner diameter being greater than the diameter of the shaft. An annular space is formed between the inner diameter and the shaft. A bearing seat is disposed within the space, and is fixed to the shaft. An annular encoder is affixed to the bearing seat. A sensor is located in close proximity to the annular encoder, and is fixed to the member. The bearing seat may be of either the cantilevered or split ring designs. The annular encoder is sensed by the sensor in either an axial or a radial direction. |
