Abstract:
1. An arrangement for detecting the rotation angles on a rotating component, comprising: signal generators and sensors which detect changes in a physical variable which are generated by the signal generators as a function of the change in rotation angle of the rotating component, wherein signals generated by the signal generators are evaluated digitally, first satellite coupled to the circumference of said rotating component, wherein the first satellite rotates as a result of the rotation of the rotating component and has a relatively small circumference, wherein the first satellite comprises: wherein the hypocycloidal transmission is composed of the hypocycloidal disk which is coupled axially to the first satellite and which is offset in axis-parallel fashion with respect to the first satellite by a predefined absolute value, and wherein the rotation signal generator and the first satellite are concentric and the first satellite has a contour which is offset with respect to its axis of symmetry by the predefined absolute value and is coupled to the hypocycloidal disk.
