Magnetic type angle sensor
First Claim
1. A method of producing a magnetic type angle sensor, said magnetic type angle sensor comprising a rotary body and a magnetic sensing device arranged facing said rotary body and sensing a change in a magnetic field along with rotation of said rotary body, said rotary body including a first sensed part provided on a circumferential surface thereof with a plurality of recessed parts and projecting parts alternately at equal intervals in a circumferential direction thereof and a second sensed part provided on the circumferential surface thereof with a projecting part at only one location, said method comprising the steps of:
- providing a gear-shaped member including a first portion to be formed into said first sensed part and a second portion to be formed into said second sensed part;
forming an annular groove on the circumferential surface of said gear-shaped member between said first portion and said second portion; and
forming said second sensed part by removing all of the projecting parts except at one location from the second portion.

Abstract
A magnetic type angle sensor includes a rotary body having a first sensed part provided on a circumferential surface thereof with projecting parts and recessed parts at equal intervals in a circumferential direction thereof and a second sensed part provided on a circumferential surface thereof with a projecting parts at just one location, and a magnetic sensing device for sensing a change in a magnetic field along with rotation of the rotary body. The rotary body is formed with a plurality of projecting parts and recessed parts in a gear shape by gear cutting on the circumferential surface, then is cut with a groove at the center thereof in the axial direction thereof and has all projecting parts in a half section in the axial direction thereof cut off except for one.
