Abstract: L'invention concerne un dispositif de détection de position de champ magnétique destiné à détecter la position, sur une surface avant d'une paroi, d'un aimant à champ magnétique d'intensité connue, fixé sur une surface arrière de la paroi. Le dispositif de détection comporte un transducteur de champ magnétique qui produit des signaux proportionnels à l'intensité du champ magnétique détecté. Ces signaux sont traités dans un microcontrôleur et comparés à une valeur de signal de référence représentative de l'intensité de champ magnétique de l'aimant lorsque ce champ n'est pas obstrué, de manière à produire des signaux envoyés à un dispositif d'affichage qui affiche une valeur numérique indicatrice de l'épaisseur de la paroi. Des dispositifs de signalisation audibles et/ou visuels sont également utilisés de manière à diriger le mouvement du dispositif de détection afin que la personne utilisatrice positionne ce dispositif sur la surface avant de la paroi de façon sensiblement adjacente à l'aimant, le positionnement du dispositif de détection étant opéré selon un trajet en spirale qui va en diminuant.
