Method, system, and sensor apparatus for detecting rotational speed of a gear assembly

Abstract

Provided are approaches for incorporating a plurality of sensors within a housing assembly coupled to a gear assembly. In one approach, a sensor apparatus includes a housing assembly including a first section and a second section coupled to the first section, and a set of speed sensors disposed within the first section. In one approach, the set of speed sensors is configured to detect rotational speed of one or more gears of the gear assembly. The sensor apparatus further includes a position sensor disposed within the second section. In one approach, the position sensor is configured to detect a position of a park lock element. The sensor apparatus further includes a printed circuit board (PCB) disposed within the housing assembly, wherein the set of speed sensors and the position sensors are connected to the PCB.
