LINEAR MOTION TRANSDUCER Russian patent published in 1997 - IPC

FIELD: measuring equipment, can be used for measurement of translations of assemblies and mechanisms. SUBSTANCE: linear motion transducer has a current-conducting cylinder with a cut in generating line and a non-magnetic current- conducting screen. The novelty in the transducer is the fact that it uses an additional toroidal coil, current-conducting jumper passing through the hole of the toroidal coil, and the current-conducting cylinder has another cut diametrically opposite to the first one; the cuts do not reach one end of the cylinder, and the jumper connects the cylinder parts divided by the cuts. The toroidal coil leads serve as the transducer output. EFFECT: improved design. 1 dwg
