Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
An apparatus for measuring a speed of a vehicle having an in-wheel motor including a lock nut part fixed to an outer portion of a rotation shaft rotated by receiving power of the in-wheel motor, and restricting movement of a bearing part positioned outside the rotation shaft; a connection part coupled to the lock nut part; a magnet part having a magnetic force, and fixed to the connection part; and a speed sensor part installed to be separated from the magnet part, and measuring rotations of the magnet part.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. An apparatus for measuring a speed of a vehicle having an in-wheel motor, comprising: a lock nut part fixed to an outer portion of a rotation shaft configured to be rotated by receiving power of the in-wheel motor, the lock nut part being configured to restrict a movement of a bearing part positioned outside the rotation shaft; a speed sensor part separated from the lock nut part and configured to measure a rotation of the lock nut part; and a magnet part having a magnetic force and fixed to the lock nut part so as to be separated from the speed sensor part. 2. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the lock nut part comprises: a lock nut body having a ring shape and locked to the outer portion of the rotation shaft; and outer projections projecting on a circumferential outer surface of the lock nut body in shapes of prominences and depressions, and measured by the speed sensor part. 3. The apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the lock nut part further comprises engagement grooves forming groove portions between the adjacent outer projections. 4. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the magnet part is formed by sintering powder having a magnetic force and bonded to a rim of the lock nut part. 5. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the magnet part comprises: a magnet body facing an upper surface of the lock nut part and extending in a ring shape; and engagement projections extending from the magnet body and inserted into engagement grooves in an outer portion of the lock nut part. 6. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the rubber magnet part is bonded to the lock nut part by applying vulcanization.
