Patent ID: 7081746

Claim:
An inductive displacement detector, comprising: a pair of winding holders arranged opposite, one to the other; a transmission winding arranged on said one winding holder and configured to extend, from one end to a folded portion and fold back therefrom to the other end; a receiver winding including a plurality of reception loops arranged along said transmission winding on said one winding holder; and a plurality of flux coupling windings capable of movement in a direction relative to said transmission winding and said receiver winding, each flux coupling winding including a closed line conductor, crossed or not crossed, having a receiver conductor capable of flux coupling to said transmission winding and a transmission conductor capable of flux coupling to said receiver winding, wherein said flux coupling winding with said line conductor crossed and said flux coupling winding with said line conductor not crossed are alternately arranged on said the other winding holder, and wherein adjacent transmission conductors share a side extending in a direction crossing said direction of relative movement.
