Abstract

PURPOSE:To produce a magnetic field which includes an encoder plate as a magnetic path over a magnetic detecting element by providing many slits to the entire periphery of the encoder plate. CONSTITUTION:When a handle 12 is rotated manually, a ruler fitting plate 14 rotates around double shaft 8 and a magnetic detecting element which is associated with the fitting plate 14 moves between the encoder plate 20 and a disk 22 along a circumference having its center at the center axis of the double shaft 8. At this time, the magnetic detecting element detects variation of a magnetic field caused by slits 24 of the encoder plate 20 and a magnetic field variation detecting device 26 outputs an electric signal which varies by the slits 24 according to the detection signal of the magnetic detecting element. Then when the encoder plate 20 rotates relatively to the magnetic detecting element, the magnetic field varies by each slit 24 of the encoder plate 20 and the magnetic detecting element detects the variation.
