Definitions

  • the invention relates to a magnetic sensor arrangement, in particular for sensing the movement of linearly or rotationally moved elements, according to the generic features of the main claim.
  • magnetic field-sensitive sensors are used in many areas in which contactless detection of a movement is desired. This can be both a rotational movement and a linear movement.
  • the movement can be determined directly by the time-changing magnetic field at the sensor location.
  • passive transmitter elements which consist of a soft magnetic material
  • the magnetic field is generated by a working magnet which is firmly connected to the sensor. The sensor measures the change in the magnetic field of the working magnet, which is caused by the movement of the encoder elements.
  • XMR sensors In addition to the Hall technology for magnetic field measurement which is known per se, so-called XMR technologies, ie magnetoresistive measuring principles, are also increasingly being used in the case of passive sensor elements in the motor vehicle sector. It should be noted that XMR sensors, in contrast to Hall sensors, detect the so-called "in-plane" component of the magnetic field in the sensor element. XMR sensors previously used use a working magnet, the field of which must be adjusted so that the offset at the location of the sensitive element is zero, or a so-called back bias field is generated that defines the working point of the sensor.
  • DE 101 28 135 AI describes a concept in which a hard magnetic layer nearby, i.e. is deposited in particular on and / or under a magnetoresistive layer stack.
  • This hard magnetic layer then couples mainly to the magnetosensitive layers through its stray field and thereby generates a so-called bias magnetic field, which acts as a magnetic field offset, so that even with only a slight variation of an external magnetic field superimposed on the internal magnetic field, a well measurable and relatively large one Change in the actual measured value, which is detected as a change in resistance in the layer arrangement, can be achieved.
  • the sensors described above are often designed in a manner known per se for speed detection, for example in motor vehicle technology, in a so-called gradiometer arrangement.
  • the sensor thus only measures the signal of a magnetic pole wheel whose pole pair spacing corresponds approximately to the predefined gradiometer spacing.
  • the gradiometer principle in contrast to the absolutely measuring XMR elements, the sensitivity of the sensors to homogeneous interference fields can be reduced.
  • a comparison of the magnets previously used so that the offset can be eliminated at both locations of the sensor elements of the gradiometer arrangement can no longer be carried out here; Electronic adjustment is possible in principle, but here there is a relatively small signal with a large offset.
  • the magnetic sensor arrangement according to the invention has two sensor elements in a gradiometer arrangement, each of which is assigned to one of two magnetic regions of a gap permanent magnet arranged at a predetermined distance. These areas and the entire gap permanent magnet are advantageously arranged with regard to the dimensions, the gap width and the gap shape, the gap depth and their positions in relation to the sensor elements such that the offset of the output signal of the sensor elements in the gradiometer alignment is minimized.
  • the design of a magnetic circuit that has a working field for one the gradiometer principle, ie generated with a detection of the field gradient sensor is optimized and thus enables offset-free operation of the sensor with variation of the magnetic field by moving encoder elements, in particular ferromagnetic gearwheels.
  • the magnetic circuit was composed of two areas, the fields of which overlap so that the so-called "in-plane" components of the resulting magnetic field, or the working field in the sensitive x-direction in the case of XMR sensors, at the gradiometer positions be reduced so that they vary around the zero position due to the influence of the passive encoder elements. This means that very small signals can be detected without offset.
  • the single-component gap magnet according to the invention is of simpler construction and less expensive to manufacture.
  • the gap of the gap magnet has a wedge-shaped or another curved contour.
  • This gap shape means that the offset optimization in the magnetic circuit is not reduced to the two gradiometer positions, but takes place over a wide area parallel to the surface of the magnet or a flux guide disk. This results in significantly reduced positioning requirements for the gradiometer position of the XMR sensor element with regard to the magnet arrangement.
  • the gap of the gap permanent magnet it is also possible for the gap of the gap permanent magnet to have a rectangular contour.
  • flux guide disks are arranged as homogenizing plates between the sensor elements and the magnetic areas. This homogenizes the field in the plane of the sensor elements and reduces the necessary positioning accuracy of the sensor elements compared to the magnet pair for offset-free operation.
  • the magnetization of the regions is rotated by a predetermined angle ⁇ in each case deviating from its longitudinal direction facing the sensor elements.
  • This premagnetization which is caused by the oblique position of the field, ensures that the sensor elements are located in a magnetic field in which the sensitivity is maximal due to a so-called bias field.
  • an arrangement of the aforementioned homogenizing plates is advantageously possible.
  • the invention can be used particularly advantageously in a magnetic sensor arrangement for detecting the angle of rotation of a wheel as a transmitter element, the wheel, for example as a steel wheel, being provided with teeth on its periphery for influencing the magnetic field in the region of the magnetic sensor arrangement.
  • speed sensors on the wheel or on the crankshaft there are areas of application as speed sensors on the wheel or on the crankshaft, as phase sensors on the camshaft, as speed sensors in the transmission or as other linear travel, angle or proximity sensors in which the magnetic field changes are induced by moving metallic elements , drawing

  • the optimal working point of the sensor 6 is set via the distance between the individual magnets 4 and 5, defined by the gap width sa and the gap depth st, and can be adapted to the gradiometer distance GM of the sensor elements 7 and 8. Furthermore, the field line profiles depend on the dimensions h, b and t of the gap magnet 2. For a fixed gradiometer distance GM, e.g. 2.5 mm, can be determined here, for example, by the size, material and arrangement of the gap magnet 2 in such a way that the sensor 6 operates without offset and thus can detect signals that are as small as possible in order in turn to allow the greatest possible distance from a transmitter element.

  • FIG. 9 shows an exemplary embodiment of a magnet 23, in which, instead of a suitably shaped gap 21 in the gap magnet, a specially shaped flux guide disk 24 on the surface of the rectangular magnet 23 for insertion sentence is coming. Due to the properties of the soft magnetic material of the flux guide disk 24, the field in the plane of the sensor elements 7 and 8 is shaped differently than in the case of a pure magnet, the x component (cf. FIG. 7) of the magnetic field being minimized over wide x ranges.

  • the optimized shape of the gap 21 ensures an offset reduction of the magnetic field B in the gradiometer direction not only at the two positions of the sensor elements 7 and 8 but also over a wide range, so that the required positioning accuracy of the gradiometer in relation to the magnet 20 can be significantly reduced.

  • the x component of the B field (Bx) is plotted here over the gradiometer position x relative to the center of the sensor. It can be seen that the amount of the offset of the magnetic field B is smaller than lmT over a wide range. It can also be seen here that the course of the magnetic field Bx for the two simulated positions of the encoder wheel 11 (tooth 12, course 25) and the gap (course 26)) takes place symmetrically around the zero position, that is to say that the signal of the respective one Sensor element 7,8 is offset-free. The magnetic stroke as the difference between the tooth and gap position, however, remains high.
