Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for contact-less measurement of distances in multiple directions and especially to a multi- axis position sensor.
- inductive sensors For contact-less position measurement inductive sensors can be used.
- the operation principle of such sensors is based on the measurement of a sensor coil's inductance or damping that depend on the distance between sensor and a target body.
- the target material ferrromagnetic or electrically conductive, or both
- the coil's inductance or the damping can be the dominant effect.
- US 4,825,157 discloses another joystic working as a hall sensor and using a magnetic core.
- Position measurement in this context refers to the measurement of all rotations and translations the body can perform in space. Depending on the arrangement one, two or up to all six axes can be measured simultaneously. In case of a rotationally symmetric body, the rotation about its axis of symmetry cannot be measured (5 degree of freedom (DOF) measurement) . In contrast to most other known devices in this area the rotation about its axis of symmetry is considered less important .
- DOF degree of freedom
- the rotor is made of a full conductive cylinder, e.g. steel or aluminum. Eddy currents avoid that a magnetic field exists within said material. Therefore, if the body is moving in one direction (e.g. to the left) the magnetic field is partially suppressed on said side by the eddy currents of the target body. The overall magnetic field moves to the opposite direction (e.g. to the right) . The detector on the opposite side receives the larger signal. If the gap between the concentric coil and the target body is small compared to its diameter, the movement of the overall magnetic field is much larger than the movement of the target body. This leads to a high sensitivity.

- Fig. 1 shows a schematic perspective view of a first configuration of a device according to the invention.
- a coil 1 is wound around an electrically conductive movable target body 2 and is excited by a high frequency current through line 3 and generator 13.
- Target body 2 is an electrically conductive body but not made of ferromagnetic material. Differing from a conventional arrangement where small independent coils are just placed around the target body, the coil is arranged in such a way that its windings enclose the body completely. Therefore, the inductance of the coil 1 is high compared to a conventional arrangement.
- the field of such a coil 1 is rejected by the eddy currents induced in the conductive body 2. This leads to a field concentration in the gap 10 between movable body 2 and coil 1.
- the field highly depends on the gap size 10. Thus, the position of the body 2 has a large impact on the overall field distribution.
- Magnetic field sensors 4 are used around the body 2 along the winding of the coil 1 to measure the asymmetries of the field distribution.
- the sensors 4 are arranged more or less in the same plane 14 of the hollow cylindrical device. The resulting arrangement has good sensitivity for small lateral target body movements (directions X and Y) , is easy to manufacture, and can be operated at relatively low frequencies due to the large inductance of the coil 1.
- Applicant has prepared a device according to the invention with a diameter of the body 2 of 20 millimeters.
- the inner edge of a substrate 14 forming the plane around the body 2 has a diameter of 21 millimeters. Therefore, according to one embodiment of the invention, the gap size 10 is 0.5 millimeters.
- the embodiment is chosen and arranged in such a way that there is a relationship of 40:1 between the diameter of the body 2 and the width of the gap 10. If the body 2 moves e.g. 0.3 millimeters to the right gap 12 decreases to 0.2 millimeters, the opposite gap increases to 0.8 millimeters. Hence the magnetic field will move to the left side by about 12 millimeters.
- the stationary coil 1 encloses the movable target body 2 on a ring substrate 14 as near as possible to the inner circumference of the substrate 14. Such a distance may decrease down to 0.2 millimeters.
- the benefit of this arrangement is its compactness - a large coil inductance that can be achieved using only little space.
- Magnetic field sensors 4 are implemented as coils. These additional coils 4, arranged around the target body 2, are used to measure the voltage induced by the high frequency field created by coil 1. These voltages depend on the target body's position and, hence, yield independent position signals for the X- and Y- directions.
- the cables 3 may be long compared to the dimensions of the device, e.g. 100 to 1, and allow only relatively low frequencies.
- the possible frequency range for the high frequency alternating current depends on the dimensions of the device. Said frequency has to be high enough so that a substantial part of the generated magnetic field cannot enter the conductive body 2; in other words the eddy currents induced in the conductive body 2 displace and reject the magnetic field of coil 1.
- Fig. 2 shows a schematic plan view of the device according to Fig. 1. Identical features are receiving the same reference numerals throughout the drawings. Within the embodiment of Fig. 1 and 2 four coils 4 are used.
- FIG. 3 Similar arrangements yielding such position signals can also be realized by providing more and fewer sensing coils, as for example as shown in Fig. 3 and 4.
- Fig. 3 a second configuration of a device according to the invention is using three coils 4, whereas Fig. 4 shows six coils 4.
- the arrangement of coils according to the invention results in sufficiently large inductances even if the number of windings per coil is low (e.g. five turns) and if the coil size is small (e.g. 10 millimeter coil diameter) .
- this measurement principle is suited for integration on a circuit board (PCB) .
- PCB circuit board
- Use of a circuit board also ensures the possibility to provide all coils 1 and 4 in one production step in the same plane 14 as shown in Fig. 1, allowing for a reproducible and, low cost manufacturing process as well as for an optimum coil placement.
- Coil 1 and coils 4 can be placed set up in as a multi-layer arrangement very close to the target body 2, yield- ing an even improved resolution, see Fig. 7.
- the eddy currents induced in the conductive body 2 reject the field of coil 1.
- the conductive body 2 is then almost without magnetic field lines. This leads to said field concentration in the gap 10 between movable body 2 and fixed coil 1.
- Coils 1 and 4 form a system of coupled inductances.
- the resulting signals can be evaluated based on measurement of the coils' impedances. This can be realized in different ways. Instead of connecting the high frequency alternating current 3 to coil 1, such currents can also be applied to coils 4, resulting in a measurable signal in coil 1.
- the currents applied to the coils 4 can be chosen with a phase offset to each other or with different frequencies .
- Fig. 4 shows a schematic plan view of a third configuration of a device according to the invention with a signal treatment arrangement. The processing of the signals through arrangement 5 in Fig. 4 can be realized differentially in order to eliminate sensor drift.
- a known synchronous demodulation 6 can be used.
- the signal processing arrangement 5 is preferably integrated on the substrate together with the coils 1 and 4.
- the small sensitivity of the feeding line 3 and measurement line permits the separation of the sensor and its signal processing arrangement.
- FIG. 5 shows a schematic plan view of a fourth configuration of a device according to the invention with three magnetic field sensors, using hall sensors 4 instead of coils.
- Fig. 6 shows a schematic plan view of a fifth configuration of a device according to the invention
- Fig. 7 shows a schematic sectional side view of the device according to Fig. 6 according to line VII-VII in Fig. 6.
- the axial target body' s position in Z-direction can be additionally determined by measuring the distance (or gap) 20 to a step or a notch 22 on the target body 2.
- distance measurement can be achieved by evaluating the sum of the signals of coils 4 or by evaluating the impedance of coil 1.
- Fig. 7 actually shows two different embodiments within one drawing. On the left hand side of Fig.
- the coil 1 is prepared on the innermost circumference on and below a substrate and the coil 4 is prepared in the same planes as coil 1 within a larger distance from the z-axis.
- Fig. 7 On the right hand side of Fig. 7 a multilayer arrangement is shown, wherein coil 4 is prepared in sandwich between two parts of coil 1.
- Fig. 8 shows a schematic plan view of a sixth configuration of a device according to the invention
- Fig. 9 shows a schematic sectional side view of the device according to Fig. 8.
- the measurement arrangement can be extended to additional degrees of freedom (DOF) .
- Fig. 8 shows an arrangement with such additional coils 7 provided radially outside of coils 1 and 4, respectively.
- the axial target body' s position in Z-direction can be additionally determined by measuring the gap 20 to a larger cylinder part 22 of the target body 2.
- These coils 7 allow for evaluation of the rotation (tilting) angles about the X- and Y- axes in addition to the displacements in the X- , Y-, and Z-directions . From Fig. 9 can be seen that coils 4 and 7 are provided on the lower surface of the substrate 14 facing the larger cylinder part 22 whereas the cylindrical enclosing coil 1 is provided on the other substrate side at the inner circumference of the substrate 14.
- Fig. 10 shows a schematic plan view of a seventh configuration of a device according to the invention
- Fig. 11 shows a wiring circuit layout of a device according to Fig. 10.
- Coil 1 consists of 4 separate windings. Each coil 4 is connected in series to the corresponding winding of coil 1. This leads to less connecting wires.
- Fig. 10 shows only one turn of the windings for better overview.
- the excitation signal 13 is fed to all coils 4 and the impedances of the coils 4 are measured.
- Fig. 11 shows a two layer wiring board.
- the solid lines show wires on the top layer, the dashed lines show wires on the bottom layer, and the dots are interconnections between the two layers.
