Zusammenfassung: | A position detection device is configured to detect a position of a moving member moving backward and forward in a predetermined moving direction. The position detection device is provided with a conductive detection member attached to the moving member, and an exciting coil and a detection coil that are arranged extending in the moving direction of the moving member and facing the conductive detection member. The conductive detection member includes a recessed portion recessed in a direction away from the exciting coil and the detection coil. A voltage is induced in the detection coil by a current flowing in the conductive detection member due to a magnetic field generated by the exciting coil, and a magnitude of the voltage induced in the detection coil varies with a position of the recessed portion relative to the detection coil. A vehicle steering device is provided with a shaft, a housing, and the position detection device. |
