Abstract

PURPOSE:To make it possible to detect torque at high detecting sensitivity with excellent accuracy by forming the powder of super-magnetostriction metal such as Pr2O17, Tb2Co17, SmFe2 and TbFe2, incorporating the powder into magnetostriction metal, and constituting a magnetostriction detector. CONSTITUTION:Super magnetostriction metal such as Pr2O17, Tb2Co17, SmFe2, TbFe2, TbNi0.4Fe1.5 and TbFe2 is made to be powder state. The powder is incorporated into magnetostriction metal. Thus a magnetostriction detector is formed. When torque is not applied on a shaft 10, transistors TRs 17 and 18 are alternately turned ON and OFF, and an output terminal voltage Edc becomes 0V. When the torque is applied on the shaft 10, compressive force acts on a film 11 and tensile force acts on a film 12 under the state wherein the direction of the shaded lines of the magnetostriction film 11 is inclined by 45 degrees in the axial direction. When the magnetostriction line has the negative magnetostriction effect, the permeability is increased in the film 11 and decreased in the film 12. Therefore, a current ic1 is decreased, and a current ic2 is increased. When the rotation of the shaft 10 is reversed, the reverse operation and phenomenon occur in the films 11 and 12. Thus the positive and negative torques are detected.
