ABSTRACT:
A position sensor is nested into a cup-shaped portion of a molded pedal. The pedal directly drives the position sensor rotor, but the sensor is fully self contained and environmentally sealed. By nesting the sensor within the pedal, assembly is simplified and alignment of components is easily ensured. Additionally, the pedal still retains sufficient width to be designed to have adequate strength. The pedal structure may then be assembled easily and with few pieces, while still ensuring the proper functioning and internal alignment of the sensor.
