Abstract

PURPOSE:To enable non-contact detection of position at a low cost with a high reliability and a high durability, by arranging a pair of magnets, having a tapered shape different in the direction of magnetization, linearly to make the relative position thereof with a magnetic detection body mobile along the length of the magnets and close thereto. CONSTITUTION:Magnets 1 and 2 which are of a bar in the shape are used in a pair as molded in a taper 12 and arranged linearly on a support base 5. The direction of magnetization is so set that the magnets 1 and 2 are magnetized at the right angle to the length thereof and in the opposite direction to each other. A support base 6 for supporting a magnetic detection element 3 is made mobile linearly in the direction 7 or 8, for example, using a slider or the like. The distance between the magnets 1 and 2 and the magnetic detection body 3 and an effective thickness of the magnets are changed by varying 7 and 8 the length-wise relative position of the magnets 1 and 2 to the magnetic detection body 3. In turn, this changes information on the intensity of magnetism affected by the magnetic detection body 3 linearly 9 or non-linearly 10 and 11.
