INDUCTIVE SENSOR WITH IMPROVED SAFETY - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18672162 titled 'INDUCTIVE SENSOR WITH IMPROVED SAFETY

The abstract describes an inductive sensor with multiple measurement paths and a safety path for performing safety checks.

  • The inductive sensor has a first angle measurement path for determining angular position based on a first set of input signals.
  • It also has a second angle measurement path for determining angular position based on a second set of input signals.
  • An amplitude regulation path is included to regulate the amplitudes of output signals.
  • A safety path is present for performing safety checks associated with the measurement paths and amplitude regulation path.

Potential Applications: - Industrial automation - Robotics - Automotive systems - Aerospace technology

Problems Solved: - Accurate angular position measurement - Safety checks for reliable operation - Amplitude regulation for consistent output signals

Benefits: - Enhanced precision in angular position determination - Improved safety features - Consistent and reliable output signals

Commercial Applications: Title: Advanced Inductive Sensor Technology for Precision Measurements This technology can be used in various industries such as manufacturing, automotive, and aerospace for precise angular position measurements, safety checks, and amplitude regulation.

Questions about Inductive Sensor Technology: 1. How does the inductive sensor ensure accurate angular position measurements? 2. What are the key benefits of using an inductive sensor with multiple measurement paths and a safety path?


Original Abstract Submitted

An inductive sensor may include a first angle measurement path associated with determining an angular position based on a first set of input signals. The inductive sensor may include a second angle measurement path associated with determining an angular position based on a second set of input signals. The inductive sensor may include an amplitude regulation path associated with regulating amplitudes of a set of output signals. The inductive sensor may include a safety path associated with performing one or more safety checks. Each safety check of the one or more safety checks may be associated with at least one of the first angle measurement path, the second angle measurement path, or the amplitude regulation path.
