Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2017144144A1] The invention relates to a rotational angle sensor (10) comprising: a stator element (12), which has a stator transmitting coil (20) and at least one stator receiving coil (22); a rotor element (14), which is mounted for rotation with respect to the stator element (12) about an axis of rotation (A) and which has a rotor receiving coil (28) and a rotor transmitting coil (30), which are electrically connected to each other; wherein the rotor receiving coil (28) is inductively coupled to the stator transmitting coil (20) such that an electromagnetic field produced by the stator transmitting coil (20) induces a current in the rotor receiving coil (28), which current flows through the rotor transmitting coil (30) such that the rotor transmitting coil (30) produces a further electromagnetic field; wherein the at least one stator receiving coil (22) is inductively coupled to the rotor transmitting coil (30) in such a way that the inductive coupling is dependent on a rotational angle between the stator element (12) and the rotor element (14), and the electromagnetic field produced by the rotor transmitting coil (30) induces at least one angle-dependent alternating voltage in the at least one stator receiving coil (22). The at least one stator receiving coil (22) has at least two circular-ring-sector-shaped partial windings (32a, 32b), which divide the stator element (12) into sectors, and the rotor transmitting coil (30) has an identical number of sickle-shaped partial windings (34a, 34b), which extend around the axis of rotation (A) one after the other.
