Acquisition system for detecting the angular position of a gas twist grip in a motorcycle
First Claim
1. A system (1) for acquiring the angular position of a gas twist grip (2) in a motorcycle;
- the acquisition system (1) comprises;
a fixed supporting body (3);
a rotating shaft (4) turnable mounted in the supporting body (3);
a transmission device (6) mechanically connected to the gas twist grip (2) and to the revolving shaft (4) to transmit the motion of the gas twist grip (2) to the revolving shaft (4) itself;
a main angular position sensor (10), which is carried by the supporting body (3), is coupled to the revolving shaft (4) to determine the angular position of revolving shaft (4), and is adapted to provide two reciprocally redundant measures of the angular position of the revolving shaft (4);
an angular control position sensor (11), which is separate and independent from the main angular position sensor (10), is carried by the supporting body (3), is coupled to the revolving shaft (4) to determine the angular position of the revolving shaft (4), and is adapted to provide two reciprocally redundant measures of the angular position of the revolving shaft (4) that are independent from the two reciprocally redundant measures of the angular position of the revolving shaft (4) provided by the main angular position sensor (10).
