Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A plurality of cores is arrayed while being inclined at a predetermined angle to an axis of a detected object, and end surfaces of two-side leg portions are attached in such a way as to face the detected object via an inner circumferential surface of an insulating tubular body.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A magnetostriction type torque detection sensor comprising: an insulating tubular body concentrically attached in such a way as to cover an outer circumference of a detected object; a plurality of detection coils wound along a groove provided on a circumferential surface of the insulating tubular body; and a plurality of cores attached to the insulating tubular body in such a manner that each of the plurality of detection coils passes through a U-shaped space portion surrounded by a bridging portion connecting two-side leg portions, wherein the plurality of cores is arrayed while being inclined at a predetermined angle to an axis of the detected object and is attached in such a manner that end surfaces of the two-side leg portions face the detected object via an inner circumferential surface of the insulating tubular body. 2. The magnetostriction type torque detection sensor according to claim 1 , wherein the plurality of cores is attached to the insulating tubular body in such a manner that a magnetic path which is formed at the plurality of cores and the detected object is at an inclination angle of any one of ±45° to the axis of the detected object. 3. The magnetostriction type torque detection sensor according to claim 2 , wherein a first insulating tubular body to which the plurality of cores is attached in such a manner that a magnetic path which is formed at the detected object is formed at an inclination angle of +45° to the axis of the detected object and a second insulating tubular body to which the plurality of cores is attached in such a manner that a magnetic path which is formed at the detected object is formed at an inclination angle of −45° to the axis of the detected object are located close to each other in an axial direction.
