Patent AT-E399980-T1: [Translated] POSITION DETECTION DEVICE

A position detecting means comprising a sensor arrangement ( 14 ) for producing at least one sensor signal in a fashion dependent on a body ( 11 ) moving past said means, the sensor signal or signals continuously changing on such movement past. The at least one sensor signal is compared with at least one reference value in a comparator arrangement ( 20 ), control means being provided for electronic setting of the sensor arrangement ( 14 ) by changing the reference value and the output signal of the comparator arrangement ( 20 ) forms the position signal (P) for detection of a relative position of the body ( 11 ) and the sensor arrangement ( 14 ). Accordingly it is possible for the arrangement ( 14 ) to be mechanically set in a relatively rough manner and fine adjustment may be performed by changing the reference value electronically.
