Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A torque angle sensor according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure includes a torque sensor unit and an angle sensor unit at a housing centrally arranged with a rotation shaft, the torque sensor unit including a stator installed inside the housing, a torque magnet rotatably installed at a center of the stator in conjunction with rotary operation of the rotation shaft, a collector installed at the housing to transmit a magnetic field of the torque magnet, a magnetic device module formed with an individually operating first magnetic device and a second magnetic device in one package to detect the magnetic field transmitted by the collector, and a PCB (Printed Circuit Board) mounted with the magnetic device module, wherein the PCB is arranged to a direction perpendicular to an axial direction of the rotation shaft and installed at a distal end with the magnetic device module.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A torque angle sensor, the torque angle sensor comprising: a housing centrally arranged with a rotation shaft; a torque sensor unit installed inside the housing to detect a torque change between an input shaft and an output shaft; and an angle sensor unit installed inside the housing to detect an angle change between the input shaft and the output shaft, wherein each of the torque sensor unit and the angle sensor unit is installed at a different section of th…
