Steering angle Sensor

Application: Driving dynamics

The steering-angle sensor basically consists of a non-contact angle-measuring device or resistive tracks and wipers. The sensor, which is designed a a hollow shaft, is normally mounted on the steering column or at the steering gear.

 

Today adaptive control systems contribute significantly to increasing driving safety in motor vehicles. These types of control systems improve the transversal dynamic behavior and assist the driver in critical steering maneuvers, e.g. when veering quickly or passing.

Electronic pedal Sensor

Application: Motor management

Electronic pedal sensor modules comprise an accelerator pedal, angle sensor and mechanics for simulating the traditional feeling of the accelerator pedal for the driver.

 

When the accelerator pedal is pressed down, the pedal sensor transmits the information to the control electronics. Based on this information, the position of the throttle valve is calculated.

Gear selection Sensor

Application: Transmission control
Amongst other things, the gear selection sensor consits of a resistance element and wiper support or a non-contacting Sensor.

The gear selection sensor has an integrated processor and is used for detecting the position of the gearshift.

 

Since it is a mechatronic system, this sensor comprises mechanical components as an integrated unit (electronically controlled automatic transmission). The gearshift is decoupled mechanically from the transmission.

When necessary, the driver can select gears in different gear positions by tapping the gearshift sideways.

Throttling device E-Gas, Throttling device for idle speed control

Application: E-gas, idle speed control

The information detected from the pedal sensor are transmitted to the electric motor-driven throttle valve positionier via control and correction electronics. The current throttle valve position is measured by an integrated or adapted angle sensor.

 

The idle controller regulates independent of the load the idling speed or the engine through the throttle position. This leads to an optimised fuel consumption.
