Sensor having duplicate detection lines
View Patent ↗A current sensor including a sensitive portion with a first detection line and a second detection line; the sensitive portion is suitable for detecting the passage of a moving target, a connection device suitable for delivering a detection signal arising from the sensitive portion. The current sensor further includes a duplication device suitable for duplicating the first detection line to make a duplicate first detection line and for duplicating the second detection line to make a duplicate second detection line.
1. A sensor delivering detection information in the form of a variation in current comprising:
a sensitive portion with a first detection line and a second detection line; the sensitive portion is suitable for detecting the passage of a moving target,
a connection device suitable for delivering a detection signal arising from the sensitive portion, and
a duplicate first detection line and a duplicate second detection line,
wherein the connection device includes a first terminal coupled to the first detection line, a second terminal coupled to the duplicate first detection line; a third terminal coupled to the second detection line and a fourth terminal coupled to the duplicate second detection line.
2. The sensor as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the connection device is coupled to the duplicate first detection line and the duplicate second detection line.
3. The sensor as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the duplicate first detection line and the duplicate second detection line are incorporated within the current sensor.
4. The sensor as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the duplicate first detection line and the duplicate second detection line are incorporated within the connection device.
5. An assembly of at least two sensors with a sensor and a second sensor as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the two current sensors are electrically coupled in parallel using the connection devices.
6. The assembly of at least two sensors as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the first terminal and the second terminal of the connection device are coupled to a first terminal and a second terminal of another connection device, and the third terminal and the fourth terminal of the connection device are coupled to a third terminal and a fourth terminal of the other connection device.
7. The assembly of at least two sensors as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the two sensors are coupled to an electronic computer.
8. The assembly of at least two sensors as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the two sensors are coupled to an electronic computer.
