Inductive Sensor Arrangement
20200018623 · 2020-01-16 ·

An inductive sensor device has a scale with scale elements that provide a field pattern in at least one line extending in a measuring direction. The inductive sensor device contains at least one receive circuit with at least one receive coil. The receive coil and the scale are moveable relative to each other in the measuring direction. The receive coil extends from a first end to a second end in the measuring direction. It has a first end section directly adjacent to the first end and a second end section directly adjacent to the second end, and middle section. Each of the sections contains at least one loop of the receive coil. In the end sections the loop area decreases from loop to loop from the loop next to the middle section toward the respective end. Such a loop design compensates for misalignments between the receive coil and the scale.

SMART SCALE RULER

Smart Scale Ruler is an electronic architect's scale having a triangular shaped ruler body. The Smart Scale Ruler has a changeable electronic display for displaying a custom or the desired scale of any unit of length, for a document or plan. A set of depressible buttons function as the inputs for the value of the reference point a user wishes to base the custom scale off of, as well as different settings for the device, in order to display the correct scale on the electronic display.

Cooperative measurement gauge system for multiple axis position measurement
10527397 · 2020-01-07 · ·

A first position measurement device (FPMD) is configured to control and operate both standalone and combined device operating modes. During the combined device operating mode, the FPMD inputs second-device measurement sample outputs provided by a second position measurement device (SPMD) via an inter-device communication connection. The FPMD and the SPMD are held in a fixed relationship in a workpiece measurement arrangement (e.g., with transverse measuring axes). Concurrent measurement data sets are determined as including at least a first-device measurement sample output from the FPMD and a second-device measurement sample output from the SPMD corresponding to concurrent first-device and second-device sample periods. Each concurrent measurement data set is associated with a corresponding measurement sample region on the workpiece. A combined measurement data output (e.g., as output and/or displayed by the FPMD) is provided for the current measurement sample region on the workpiece based on the corresponding concurrent measurement data set.

DIGITAL-DISPLAY MEASURING TOOL HAVING EXCESSIVE-DEVIATION ALERT DEVICE
20200003536 · 2020-01-02 · ·

A digital display measuring instrument having an out-of-tolerance warning device includes: a digital display measurer, a processor arranged in the digital display measurer, and an out-of-tolerance warning device. The processor is configured to calculate a difference between a measured value of the digital display measurer and a preset reference value, and the out-of-tolerance warning device is configured to receive signals of the processor and output a warning in response to a calculation result of the processor. With the digital display measuring instrument, it is only required to measure the size of the to-be-detected member, and it may be determined whether the size of the to-be-detected member meets a requirement by referring to an output of the out-of-tolerance warning device.

Winding configuration for inductive position encoder
10520335 · 2019-12-31 · ·

An electronic position encoder is provided including a scale, a detector and a signal processing configuration. The scale extends along an x-axis direction and includes a signal modulating scale pattern. The detector includes sensing elements and a field generating coil that surrounds an interior coil area. The field generating coil includes first and second elongated portions that each extend along the x-axis direction, connected by an end portion. The elongated portions have a nominal generating trace width dimension along the y-axis direction that is at least 0.1 times the nominal interior coil area width dimension in various embodiments. In various implementations, a conductive shield region of the detector may reduce the effect of a shielded end section of the end portion of the field generating coil on the sensing elements. The shielded end section may be located on a different PCB layer than the elongated portions.
