STRUT POSITION SENSOR

A power actuator system for a movable vehicle panel such as a lift gate assembly includes a position sensor that detects the pivotal movement of a strut mechanism of the power lift gate assembly relative to the host vehicle. A rotary sensor is coupled directly to an end component of the strut mechan...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A power actuator system for a movable vehicle panel such as a lift gate assembly includes a position sensor that detects the pivotal movement of a strut mechanism of the power lift gate assembly relative to the host vehicle. A rotary sensor is coupled directly to an end component of the strut mechanism and provides signals that indicate the total amount of pivotal or rotary movement of the strut mechanism and the lift gate during the opening and closing of the lift gate. The signals provide information to determine the absolute position of the strut and the lift gate for processing in the vehicle's electronic control unit. La présente invention concerne un système de vérin de puissance pour un panneau mobile de véhicule tel qu'un ensemble de hayon élévateur comportant un capteur de position qui détecte le mouvement pivotant d'un mécanisme de barre de l'ensemble de hayon élévateur de puissance par rapport au véhicule hôte. Un capteur rotatif est couplé directement à un élément d'extrémité du mécanisme de barre et fournit des signaux qui indiquent la quantité totale de mouvement pivotant ou rotatif du mécanisme de barre et du hayon élévateur lors de l'ouverture et de la fermeture du hayon élévateur. Les signaux fournissent une information pour déterminer la position absolue de la barre et du hayon élévateur permettant le traitement dans l'unité de commande électronique du véhicule.
