Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2017215838A1] An apparatus for determining the relative spatial orientation of two hinge parts (2, 4) of a hinge (1) that are movably connected to one another, having a magnet (9) which is connected to a first of the hinge parts (4) and which causes a local magnetic field (19), a plurality of sensor arrangements (11, 12) which are connected to a second of the hinge parts (2) and permeated by a resultant magnetic field, said resultant magnetic field being formed at least by the local magnetic field (19), the sensor arrangements (11, 12) being permeated by the latter in different directions, wherein the resultant magnetic field at the location of the respective sensor arrangement (11, 12) is detectable by means of each of the sensor arrangements (11, 12) and at least a sensor signal (S1, S2) that characterizes the resultant magnetic field at the location of the respective sensor arrangement (11, 12) is producible, and an evaluation device (13) that is connected to the sensor arrangements (11, 12), by means of which at least one spatial orientation information item (25) that characterizes the spatial orientation of the first hinge part (4) relative to the second hinge part (2) is formable when evaluating the sensor signals (S1, S2), wherein the resultant magnetic field is formed by a superposition of the local magnetic field (19) and at least one interference magnetic field (21), the sensor arrangements (11, 12) being permeated by said interference magnetic field in, or approximately in, the same direction, the resultant magnetic field at the location of the respective sensor arrangement (11, 12) being detectable in different spatial directions (x, y, z) by means of each of the sensor arrangements (11, 12) and an influence of the interference magnetic field (21) on the sensor arrangement (11, 12) or on the sensor signals (S1, S2) when forming the spatial orientation information item being eliminable or at least reducible by means of the evaluation unit (13).
