The role of Angle sensors in cars.
The main role of the automobile Angle sensor is to detect the rotation Angle and steering direction of the steering wheel, thereby helping to control the stability and safety of the vehicle.
The automobile Angle sensor, especially the steering wheel Angle sensor, provides the vehicle electronic control unit with the correct steering instruction by measuring the rotation Angle of the steering wheel when the car turns, and ensures that the car travels according to the driver's steering intention. This sensor not only plays an important role in the vehicle stability control system, through the four wheel independent automatic pressure braking control and engine torque control to suppress the sudden steering operation or the phenomenon of sideshow when the road condition changes, but also widely used in the automotive power stability control system, by detecting the rotation Angle, rotation direction and steering speed of the steering wheel. Helps control vehicle stability and safety.
When the car Angle sensor fails, there may be a series of symptoms, such as insensitive steering wheel operation, unstable vehicle driving, ABS system fault lights on. Therefore, it is very important for car manufacturers and owners to select high-quality steering Angle sensors and carry out regular inspection and maintenance to ensure that they work properly and improve driving safety.
In short, the automobile Angle sensor is an indispensable part of the modern automobile, it accurately measures and monitors the steering Angle of the vehicle, improves the vehicle's driving safety and navigation accuracy, and is of great significance for the realization of accurate navigation and route planning.
How the automotive Angle sensor works
The working principle of the automobile Angle sensor is to detect the rotation Angle and direction of the steering wheel, convert the mechanical rotation into electrical signals, which are transmitted to the automobile electronic control unit (ECU), so as to realize the control of the automobile steering system. The sensor usually contains photoelectric coupler, hall sensor and other components, through the changes of these components to sense the rotation Angle and direction of the steering wheel.
The specific working principle of automobile Angle sensor
The working principle of automotive Angle sensors can be divided into several main parts:
photoelectric coupler : The photoelectric coupler consists of a light-emitting diode and a phototransistor. As the steering wheel turns, the phototransistor outputs an electrical signal according to the light signal passing through the slot.
Hall sensor : Hall sensor uses the Hall effect. When the magnetic pole rotor is rotating, the Hall circuit generates the corresponding Hall voltage to detect the rotation Angle and direction of the steering wheel.
Giant Magnetoresistance (GMR) sensor : This sensor uses the giant magnetoresistance effect to detect changes in the direction of the magnetic field, thereby sensing the rotation Angle and direction of the steering wheel.
These sensors convert the detected signals into electrical signals, which are transmitted to the car's electronic control unit (ECU), which issues corresponding control instructions according to these signals to achieve the control of the car steering system.
Application and importance of automobile Angle sensor
The automobile Angle sensor plays an important role in the automobile steering system. It can not only improve the safety and comfort of driving, but also improve the handling performance of the car. By accurately detecting the rotation Angle and direction of the steering wheel, the sensors ensure the stability and accuracy of the car when turning, avoiding dangerous situations caused by understeering or oversteering.
