Seat position detecting apparatus, a rail position detecting apparatus and a movable body detecting apparatus
First Claim
1. A seat position detecting apparatus comprising:
- a fixed rail fixed on a vehicle floor;
a movable rail at which a vehicle seat is fixed for sliding on the fixed rail; and
a position detecting means directly mounted at one of either the fixed rail or the movable rail for detecting a relative position between the fixed rail and the movable rail by detecting the other of either the fixed rail or the movable rail.

Abstract
A seat position detecting apparatus includes a fixed rail fixed on a vehicle floor, a movable rail at which a vehicle seat is fixed for sliding on the fixed rail, and a position detecting means directly mounted at one of either the fixed rail or the movable rail for detecting a relative position between the fixed rail and the movable rail by detecting the other of either the fixed rail or the movable rail, wherein a first engaging means is provided at either the fixed rail or the movable rail at which the position detecting means is mounted, and a second engaging means provided complementarily to the first engaging means engages with the first engaging means through the position detecting means.

9. A rail position detecting apparatus includes a position detecting means provided at one of either a fixed rail or a movable rail slidably engaging each other, and the other of either the fixed rail or the movable rail is defined as an object;
- wherein the position detecting means detects the object with a magnet and a magneto detecting element, and the position detecting means detects the object based on a magnetic flux from the magnet flows out and flows in through a surface at which the position detecting means faces to the object.
- 10. A movable body position detecting apparatus includes a position detecting means provided at one of either a guide member or a movable member slidably engaging each other, and the other of either the guide member or the movable member is defined as an object, wherein the position detecting means detects the object with a magnet and a magneto detecting element, and the object is not provided between the magnet and the magneto detecting element.
