    The present invention relates to a linear inductive position sensor for an angular measurement of a rotating mechanical part. In such a configuration, the linear position sensor performs the function generally performed by a rotary sensor which it then replaces.
    Any type of inductive sensor, both linear and rotary has the advantage of allowing to determine the position of a mechanical part, or any other element, without requiring contact with the part of which we want to know the position. This advantage makes the applications of such sensors are very numerous in all types of industries. Such sensors are also used in consumer applications such as the automotive field in which the present invention has been made. However, it can be used in other diverse and varied fields.
    There are mainly three types of inductive sensors. The first type of sensor relates to linear inductive sensors for which a translational movement of a mechanical part is measured. The second type of sensor relates to rotary inductive sensors which follow a rotational movement of a mechanical part about an axis, these rotary inductive sensors also being referred to as resolvers. The term resolver refers to a position sensor that is also able to measure even at high rotational speeds. A third type of sensor relates to sensors that can provide a linear as well as rotary measurement function and including sensors marketed under the inductosyn® brand.
    A non-contact inductive sensor is a position sensor whose principle is based on the variation of the coupling between the primary and the secondary of a transformer operating at high frequency and without magnetic circuit. Such a sensor thus comprises a fixed portion of the transformer type with a primary circuit and at least two secondary circuits, the high frequency alternating current being able to induce an electric voltage in each of said at least two secondary circuits. It is possible that the transformer is simply a printed circuit on which primary and secondary are constituted by tracks traced on this printed circuit.
    The coupling varies as a function of the position of a moving conductive part, seat of induced currents, and of which we want to know precisely the position relative to the transformer, this part forming the second part, this second part being the only moving part of the sensor inductive by being called target. The inductive sensor is said to be contactless because there is no contact between the fixed and movable parts of the inductive sensor.
    The primary circuit is powered by an external source varying over time at high frequency and the secondary circuits are the seat of induced voltages. The conductive target whose position is to be known is generally of simple form. For a linear sensor dedicated to measuring a translational movement of a mechanical part, the target has a parallelepiped shape and for a rotary sensor, the target has a given angular sector of given angle. The dimensions of each of these targets as well as the elements of the primary and secondary circuits must be selected to optimize the characteristics of the specifically linear or rotary sensor.
    The flows of the secondaries brought back to the primary stream form, according to the position of the target, envelopes of precise values of given amplitude which are independent of time. The values of the flows of the secondary and primary are advantageously constructed to realize on the full course of the sensor sine and cosine functions of the position of the target.
    These sine and cosine functions are very useful in the electronic processing of the sensor. We report the two functions before taking the arc tangent, the output of the tangent arc thus giving an image of the position of the target. The sine and cosine function argument is a linear or affine function of the target position. Thus, the race of the target represents a more or less large part of the spatial period of these trigonometric functions.
    The behavior of this sensor is therefore identical to that of a transformer with a primary transmitting coil and two secondary coils. From a physical point of view, the modification of the primary coupling with the secondary ones is done by means of the effect of electromagnetic skin.
    The primary being supplied with high frequency, the phenomena occurring in the sensor are all high frequency. The target which is a massive conductive part is therefore the seat of important induced currents. The penetration depth of these induced currents is given by the classical formula of skin thickness. The calculation giving for aluminum a value of 50pm which is a preferred but non-limiting material for the target, the induction therefore hardly penetrates into the target. The magnetic flux produced by the primary thus bypasses the target. This strongly modifies the field lines. This change is perceived by the secondary that depending on the position of the target receive more or less flow. These variable flows according to the target are also variable as a function of time. They therefore generate a voltage across the secondary circuits that is measured by the electronics. The sensor therefore measures the position of the target according to the flows received in the secondary circuits.
    The document US-A-2014/67788 discloses a rotary inductive sensor for measuring the angular position of a mechanical part in rotary motion comprising a primary winding, associated with at least one secondary winding, and a target secured to the rotating part around of a central axis. The primary winding is centered around an axis coinciding with the central axis of rotation of the target, and traversed by a high frequency alternating current capable of inducing an electric voltage in each secondary winding. The target consists of several angular sectors of the same angular aperture regularly distributed at one end of the mechanical part in rotary motion.
    It is known that inductive sensors, in particular rotary inductive sensors for which the value measured for the target is an angle, present errors in the measurement of the angular position of the target, and therefore of the mechanical part in rotary motion. In this document, it is intended to decrease the angular aperture of each target angular sector of an angular adjustment sector to eliminate an order of the harmonic in a Fourier decomposition deviation from the linearity. This requires a transformation of the complicated angular sectors and only partially solves the problem of errors in the angular position measurement of the target for a rotary inductive sensor.
    In addition, the target of the rotary inductive sensor is frequently positioned at one end of the mechanical part which is often in the form of a shaft. It is common, particularly in the field of motor vehicles, that the two ends of such a shaft are attached to other parts and can not receive the angular sectors of the target.
    The problem underlying the present invention is to conform a linear inductive sensor comprising a fixed part and a moving target to measure the angular position of a mechanical part in rotary motion in place of a rotary inductive sensor, the inductive sensor. linear and mainly its target can be placed in various positions relative to the rotating mechanical part and not only at one end of the part. For this purpose, the present invention relates to a linear inductive sensor comprising, on the one hand, a fixed portion of the transformer type with a primary circuit and at least two secondary circuits, the primary circuit being traversed by a high frequency alternating current suitable for inducing an electrical voltage in each of said at least two secondary circuits and, on the other hand, a metallic moving part carrying a target intended to be fixed on a mechanical part performing a rotational movement about a central axis that the inductive sensor measures angularly, remarkable in that the target is in the form of a metal spiral carried by a circular face of a ring having a central recess, the ring being intended to be fixed on the mechanical part being concentric to the mechanical part, the metal spiral protruding axially from the crown by at least one turn around the recess centrally away from the central recess.
    A linear sensor measures a linear motion. However, the present invention allows the transformation of a rotational movement, i.e. that of a rotating mechanical part, into an apparently linear motion. This is done through a spiral arranged on a circular flat face of a crown. With a spiral, the rotational movement is followed as that of a surface that moves radially on the crown. The use of a spiral makes the rotational movement of the mechanical part is followed by being transformed into a linear movement of the target, that is to say, for the same turn a succession of different portions of the spiral passing in front of the sensor in a movement similar to a linear motion. The fixed portion of the inductive sensor then measures the position of the portion of the spiral that is in front of him at a given moment.
    The main advantage of the present invention is the obtaining of an inductive sensor of small size allowing an absolute measurement of the angle of rotation of a rotating mechanical part, for example a shaft. The principle of this linear sensor can be used to make it an angular speed sensor of the crown and therefore of the mechanical part, that is to say to allow it to be used in an equivalent manner to an angular or resolver sensor .
    It is possible to place the crown and therefore the target at any location on the periphery of the mechanical part and not only at its ends. It is even possible to use a ring-shaped element, for example a flange, already present on the mechanical part. It solves the problem of lack of space at the ends of a mechanical part whose rotational movement is controlled, this by offering a wide range of possible positions of the crown on the mechanical part.
    Advantageously, the spiral has a first end close to the central recess of the crown, the spiral ending in a second end farthest from the central recess, a radial distance between the first and second ends of the spiral corresponding approximately to the length of the fixed part of the sensor in which the primary and secondary circuits extend.
    The larger and wider the spiral, the more the sensor will process signals from the secondary circuits that are strong and therefore more exploitable. The smaller the spiral, the smaller the space and less mass the target will be with the disadvantage of creating weaker signals than signals obtained by a large and wide spiral. The choice of the spiral depends on privileging either the lightness of the target or the signal processing. Compromise solutions are of course possible.
    Advantageously, the fixed part is disposed opposite and at a distance from the circular surface of the ring bearing the spiral, the fixed part extending parallel to a radius of the ring. The secondary circuits advantageously extending in the length of the fixed part are then in an adequate position so that their signals they emit allow the detection of the passage of a part of the spiral making target on a portion of these circuits.
    Advantageously, the spiral has a working portion adapted to cooperate with the fixed part for the angular measurement of the mechanical part, this working portion extending over most of the length of the spiral with the exception of two portions of end, the maximum width of the working portion of a spiral adapted to be carried by the circular face of the ring being at most equal to half the length of the fixed portion of the sensor, and the minimum width of the portion working of a spiral adapted to be carried by the circular face of the ring being at least equal to a little less than a quarter of the length of the fixed part. This is in relation to the arrangement of meshes in the secondary circuits, secondary circuits emitting a respectively sine or cosine signal by presenting specific mesh successions. It is therefore possible to select a spiral among spirals of different configurations for the same crown.
    Advantageously, the working portion of the spiral carried by the circular face of the ring has a constant width or a width varying on this portion of work between half the length of the fixed part of the sensor and up to a little less than quarter of this length.
    Advantageously, a secondary circuit of said at least two secondary circuits generates a cosine signal by having at least one unit of three cells with a mesh of large central dimension surrounded by two small side cells, the two small meshs being mounted in phase opposition to the large mesh, the large mesh having a double length of that of each small mesh, and another secondary circuit generates a sine signal by having at least one unit of two meshes with equivalent dimensions and mounted in phase opposition.
    Advantageously, said at least one unit of two meshes of a secondary circuit and said at least one unit of three meshes of another secondary circuit extend in length in the length of the fixed part, the primary circuit and said at least two secondary circuits being superimposed with respect to each other.
    Advantageously, said at least two secondary circuits have several units of mesh, the mesh units of the same circuit being aligned in the length of the fixed part with each time a longitudinal offset.
    Advantageously, the spiral is machined or molded aluminum. Aluminum is a good conductor, lightweight, easily machinable and low cost material. In addition, aluminum is resistant to corrosion. The invention also relates to an assembly of a mechanical part and a linear inductive sensor, the mechanical part performing a rotational movement about a central axis and the linear inductive sensor angularly measuring the rotational movement of the part, remarkable in that the linear inductive sensor is as previously mentioned, the ring of the mobile part of the sensor being fixed on the mechanical part while being radial and concentric with the mechanical part, the mechanical part passing through the ring by the central recess of the crowned.
    Advantageously, the mechanical part is of cylindrical shape having two circular ends separated by a curved lateral surface, the ring being fixed on the curved lateral surface at a distance from the two circular ends, the fixed part of the sensor being inserted into the space delimited by the circular face of the ring bearing the spiral and a circular end of the cylindrical part, the fixed part of the sensor extending radially to the mechanical part and at a distance from the mechanical part.
    Indeed, the preferred but nonlimiting application of the present invention is for a rotating shaft as a mechanical part, this shaft being cylindrical. This shaft is advantageously a driven shaft, more particularly by an electric motor, the presence of an inductive sensor associated with the shaft for servocontrolling the electric motor and the shaft. Finally, the invention relates to a motor vehicle having at least one rotary shaft provided with a linear inductive sensor, characterized in that said at least one rotary shaft, as a mechanical part, and the inductive sensor form an assembly as previously described. . Other features, objects and advantages of the present invention will appear on reading the detailed description which follows and with reference to the appended drawings given as non-limiting examples and in which: FIG. 1 is a diagrammatic representation of a front view of a crown carrying a relatively large spiral-shaped target according to a first embodiment of the present invention; FIG. 2 is a schematic representation of a front view of a crown carrying a target in relatively small spiral shape according to a second embodiment of the present invention, - Figure 3 is a schematic representation of an embodiment of the primary circuit and two secondary circuits in the fixed part of an inductive sensor, this mode of embodiment of the circuits that can be implemented in an inductive sensor according to the present invention,
    It should be borne in mind that the figures are given by way of examples and are not limiting of the invention. They constitute schematic representations of principle intended to facilitate the understanding of the invention and are not necessarily at the scale of practical applications. In particular, the dimensions of the various elements illustrated are not representative of reality.
    For example in FIGS. 1 and 2, the spiral forming the target winds between the central recess and the outer periphery of the ring and can even protrude from this ring in FIG. 1, an overflow being in no way essential for the spiral according to the present invention. Such winding of the spiral is not limiting, the spiral may not join the central recess and / or the outer periphery. In case of overflow of the spiral outside the crown, the overflow width shown in dashed lines in FIG. 1 is not limiting. In Figures 1 and 2, the spiral has tapered ends, which is not limiting either. The width of the spiral can be constant over the largest portion of the spiral.
    The positioning of the fixed part of the sensor with respect to the ring and to the spiral shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 is also not limiting, the important thing being that a different portion of spiral is arranged aligned with the fixed part during a moment during the rotation of the part whose angular movement is to be measured. In Figure 2, the fixed portion of the sensor is shown slightly protruding in the central recess and the outer periphery of the crown, which is not mandatory and even in some non-preferred configurations.
    In what follows, reference will be made to all the figures taken in combination. When reference is made to one or more specific figures, these figures are to be taken in combination with the other figures for the recognition of the designated reference numerals.
    With particular reference to FIGS. 1 and 2, the present invention relates to an inductive sensor 1 to 3 linear comprising, on the one hand, a fixed part 1 of the transformer type and, on the other hand, a movable part 2,3 serving as target. This inductive sensor can be used in a motor vehicle on at least one rotary shaft present in the vehicle and provided with a linear inductive sensor, which is not limiting.
    As can be seen in FIG. 3, the fixed part 1 of the inductive sensor 1 to 3 comprises a primary circuit 6 and at least two secondary circuits 7, 8. The primary circuit 6 is traversed by a high-frequency alternating current suitable for inducing an electrical voltage in each of said at least two secondary circuits 7, 8.
    The movable part 2, 3 comprises a metal target 2 intended to be fixed on a mechanical part performing a movement in rotation about a central axis that the inductive sensor 1 to 3 angularly measures. In accordance with the invention, it is sought to position the target on the workpiece at multiple points of the workpiece and not at one of its ends 2a, such ends 2a being frequently secured to other elements from which a frequent impossibility to place the target at one end of the room.
    To do this, the target is in the form of a metal spiral 2 carried by a circular face of a ring 3 having a central recess 4, the ring forming the remainder of the fixed portion 2, 3. The ring 3 is intended for to be fixed on the mechanical part being concentric to the mechanical part, the metal spiral 2 protruding axially from the ring 3 by at least one turn around the central recess 4 away from the recess 4 central.
    Figures 1 and 2 show two embodiments of the spiral 2, a spiral 2 relatively large in Figure 1 and a spiral 2 relatively small in Figure 2. In these two embodiments, the spiral 2 may present a first end 2a close to the central recess 4 of the crown 3 but not necessarily adjacent to this recess 4 central. In Figure 2, for example, the spiral 2 may be a quarter turn adjacent to the central recess 4 while in Figure 1, the spiral 2 is more than a quarter turn and less than one turn around.
    The spiral 2 may end with a second end 2a furthest from the central recess 4 but not necessarily adjacent to or protruding from the outer periphery of the crown 3. In the case of a spiral 2 projecting from the outer periphery of the crown3, as shown in the figure! the overflowing parts5 have no use in measuring the angular movement of the part bearing the crown 3. On the other hand, this makes it easier to make and / or to join it to the 3. It is therefore practically only for manufacturing reasons that a large spiral 2 projecting from the outer periphery of the crown 3 can be provided.
    The radial distance between the first and second ends 2a of the spiral 2 may correspond approximately to the length of the fixed portion 1 of the sensor 1 to 3 in which the primary 6 and secondary circuits 7, 8 extend. As can be seen in Figures 1 and 2, the first and second ends 2a of the spiral 2 may not be aligned radially although they can be too. In the first case, the radial distance is thus taken between a first point lying on the circle concentric with the ring 3 passing through an end 2a of the spiral 2 and a second point lying on the circle concentric with the ring 3 passing through one end 2a of the spiral 2, the first and second points being aligned radially and thus borne by the same radius of the crown 3.
    The fixed part 1 can be arranged opposite and at a distance from the circular surface of the ring 3 carrying the spiral 2, the fixed part 1 extending parallel to a radius of the ring 3, thus radially to the ring 3. There is a gap between the fixed part 1 and the spiral 2. The greater the gap between the fixed part 1 of the sensor 1 to 3 and the target 2, the greater the thickness of the spiral 2 can be, this being taken in the direction of projection of the spiral 2 of the crown 3. The same may be said for its width I. The width I of the spiral 2 refers to the width of the spiral branch 2 and not to the total width that 'occupies the spiral 2 on the crown 3, this total width may contain several spiral branches 2 and the spacing between branches.
    The spiral 2 may have a working portion adapted to cooperate with the fixed part 1 for the angular measurement of the mechanical part. This working portion 2b may extend over most of the length of the spiral with the exception of two end portions 2a, these two end portions being advantageously tapered.
    As it is possible to choose the spiral 2 carried by the circular face of the crown 3 between different types of spiral, the maximum width of the working portion 2b of a spiral 2 adapted to be carried by the circular face of the crown 3 , that is to say the maximum width occupied by a spiral branch in the working portion 2b, may be at most equal to half the length of the fixed portion 1 of the sensor 1 to 3. The minimum width the working portion 2b of a spiral 2 adapted to be carried by the circular face of the ring 3 may be at least equal to a little less than a quarter of the length of the fixed part 1.
    It can therefore be envisaged to select a spiral 2 to be secured on a ring 3 to form a target among spirals with working portions 2b of different widths for the spirals relative to each other, provided that this advantageous condition is respected.
    For the same spiral 2 selected, the working portion 2b of the spiral 2 carried by the circular face of the crown 3 may have a constant width I, that is to say the width occupied by a spiral branch 2 in this portion of work 2b. Alternatively, the working portion 2b of the spiral 2 carried by the circular face of the ring 3 may have a width I varying on this working portion 2b between half the length of the fixed portion 1 of the sensor and up to a little less than a quarter of that length. In Figure 2, the spiral 2 can be considered to be of constant width over most of its length. Most of the spiral 2 is intended to be opposite the fixed portion 1 of the inductive sensor 1 to 3. The ends 2a of the spiral 2 are frequently outside the useful surface of the sensor 1 to 3.
    Spiral 2 is a good conductor of electricity. Of these materials, aluminum is preferred. The joining of the spiral 2 with the crown 3 requires great precision. Several manufacturing methods can be implemented, for example by machining or molding. Providing the spiral 2 with an overhanging portion 5 of the crown 3 may be advantageous for its positioning on the crown 3.
    For purposes of order, the stroke of the spiral 2 taken between its two ends 2a may be 24 mm, the fixed portion 1 of the sensor 1 to 3 may be 326 mm long and 10 to 15 mm thick. The invention also relates to an assembly of a mechanical part and an inductive sensor 1 to 3 linear, the mechanical part performing a rotational movement about a central axis and the linear inductive sensor 1 to 3 angularly measuring the movement in rotation of the room. The inductive sensor 1 to 3 linear is as previously mentioned, the ring 3 of the movable portion of the sensor 1 to 3 being fixed on the mechanical part being radial and concentric to the mechanical part, the mechanical part passing through the ring 3 by the 4 central recess of the crown 3. The dimension of the central recess 4 is selected depending on the mechanical part.
    As previously mentioned, it is possible to use a crown-shaped part of the mechanical part, when existing, as support for the spiral-shaped target for producing the moving part of the inductive sensor 1 to 3.
    The mechanical part is frequently of cylindrical shape having two circular ends separated by a curved lateral surface, this mechanical part being able to be an axis or a transmission shaft, this particular but not only in the automotive field.
    In the case of a cylindrical mechanical part, the ring 3 can be fixed on the curved lateral surface of the mechanical part at a distance from the two circular ends. The fixed part 1 of the sensor 1 to 3 is then inserted into the space delimited by the circular face of the ring 3 carrying the spiral 2 and a circular end of the cylindrical part, the fixed part 1 of the sensor 1 to 3 extending radially to the mechanical part and at a distance from the mechanical part so as to leave a gap between the fixed part 1 and the target spiral 2.
    In a restriction to the field of means of locomotion, which is not limiting, this mechanical part may be an element on board a motor vehicle or more generally any means of transport. In this case, the signals generated by the secondary circuits 7, 8 are supplied by the inductive sensor 1 to 3 to a vehicle computer, for example an engine control, in order to allow in particular servocontrol of the mechanical part if the mechanical part is driven by an electric motor.
    FIG. 3 shows an embodiment of a fixed part 1 with a primary circuit 6 or emitter circuit and two secondary circuits 7, 8 or receiver circuits. The fixed part 1 of the inductive sensor 1 to 3 houses a printed circuit board comprising a primary circuit 6 and two secondary circuits 7, 8 coupled to the primary circuit 6. The primary and secondary circuits 6, 7, 8 are connected to an electronic module controlling and operating data supplied back by the primary 6 and secondary circuits 7, 8.
    In a known manner, the primary circuit 6 makes it possible to generate a magnetic field during the circulation of current in its interior. The magnetic field thus created induces a current in the secondary circuits 7, 8. During the rotation of the workpiece, the spiral-shaped target carried by the crown secured to the workpiece, the target, the crown and the mechanical part being non visible in Figure 3, moves relative to the primary and secondary circuits. The target modifies the magnetic coupling between the primary circuit 6 and the two secondary circuits 7, 8. Also, by measuring the electrical voltages at the terminals of the secondary circuits 7, 8, it is possible to deduce the precise position of the target and therefore the angular position. of the mechanical part.
    In the presence of the target, the secondary circuits 7, 8 placed near the target see a smaller amount of flux of the magnetic field than if the target was absent. The secondary circuits 7, 8 are dissimilar. A first secondary circuit 7 is able to generate a cosine signal during the passage of the target and a second secondary circuit 8 is able to generate a sine signal during a passage of the target.
    The first secondary circuit 7 generating a cosine signal has at least one unit of three meshes 70, 71 with a mesh of large central dimension 70 surrounded by two small meshes 71 lateral, the two small meshes 71 being mounted in phase opposition to the large mesh 70, the large mesh 70 having a length twice that of each small mesh 71.
    The second secondary circuit 8 generating a sine signal has at least one unit of two meshes 80 of equivalent dimensions and mounted in phase opposition. The sine / cosine signals are correlated temporally by the calculation of the arctangent in order to accurately determine the position of the target.
    Said at least one unit of two meshes 80 of a secondary circuit 8 generating a sine signal and said at least one unit of three meshes 70, 71 of another secondary circuit 7 generating a cosine signal can extend in length in the length of the fixed part 1. The primary circuit 6 and said at least two secondary circuits 7, 8 can be superimposed on each other.
    The two secondary circuits 7, 8 or more may have several units of mesh, the mesh units of the same circuit being aligned in the length of the fixed part 1 with each time a longitudinal offset.
    The present invention applies to any angular position measurement requiring an inductive technology for example in the presence of a magnetic field of a magnet motor in the vicinity.
