Position detector device capable of reducing the effect of external magnetic fields on precision in detection

Abstract

Provided is a position detector device capable of suppressing the effect of external magnetic fields on precision in detection. A position detector device (1) comprises: a subject to be detected (4a), which rotates along with the rotation of a handle grip (3) that is disposed on a handlebar (2); a detector unit (5) that detects the subject to be detected (4a); and a case (7) which houses the subject to be detected (4a) and the detector (5). The subject to be detected (4a) is treated as a magnetic cylindrical body, the detector unit (5) is treated as a magnetic detector unit (5) that detects changes in magnetism. A support member (6) rotatably supports the subject to be detected (4a), and further comprises a housing member (65) that houses the detector unit (5) on the interior circumference side of the subject to be detected (4a).

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
