A non-interdependent displacement measuring device for converting a rotary motion to a linear motion is disclosed, which includes a driving unit, a detection unit, and a resistance device. The driving unit includes an adjustment section and a driving section. The detection unit is arranged in the adjustment section. The driving section is connected to the resistance device. The detection unit includes a sensing module and a transmission module, and the detection unit is arranged in the adjustment section, so that when the adjustment section rotates, the detection unit detects turns and an angle of rotation of the adjustment section to generate a detection signal, which, after being subjected to calculation, is transmitted through the transmission module to the electronic device to display the level of an resistance, so as to overcome the drawbacks of the prior art that accuracy is poor, calibration is difficult, and fabrication is difficult due to a magnet and a sensor being arranged as two separate parts.

A rotation angle measuring apparatus and method are provided for measuring a rotation angle of a moving disk relative to a stationary disk, the moving disk being configured to rotate about an axis and the stationary disk being arranged opposite the moving disk. A magnet is arranged on the moving disk. A first magnetic sensor is arranged on the stationary disk, the first magnetic sensor generating an angle signal under the action of the magnet as the moving disk rotates. An incremental rotation angle of the moving disk is determined on the basis of an output of the receiving region, a period of the static electric field is determined on the basis of an angle signal generated by the first magnetic sensor, and an absolute rotation angle of the moving disk is determined on the basis of the period of the static electric field and the incremental rotation angle.

A magnetic tag sensor includes a cylinder and threaded pipe embedded therein and simulates a magnetic dipole; two threaded pipe wiring interfaces being connected to first and second cables, running through a cylinder upper cross-section outer wall and extending out of the cylinder; the cylinder is sleeved on a guide rail and at a junction between a riverbed and water; an guide rail end inserts into the riverbed, a water sealing box is mounted on a top of the guide rail, a power supply module, a relay and a load arranged inside the water sealing box, the first cable connected to a positive pole of the power supply module, and the second cable connected to a negative pole through the relay and load connected in series; and the threaded pipe in the wall of the cylinder moves up and down with the riverbed to generate a magnetic field signal.

Magnetic-based electronic valve readers for determining a location and orientation of magnets coupled to implantable medical devices to determine a setting of the device (e.g., setting of a fluid flow control valve of the medical device). The electronic valve readers include an orientation sensing mechanism that is provided and configured to enable the electronic valve reader to: 1) allow for internal offset calculation of an orientation change of the electronic valve reader during a reading process; and/or 2) during the reading process, provide an indication or warning to the clinician that the orientation of the electronic valve reader has changed to an extent at or exceeding a predetermined angular acceptance threshold or window. Systems including the disclosed electronic valve readers and methods of reading a setting of the device are also disclosed.
