ABSTRACT:
To provide association of a particular angular position of a gear, for example the starter gear of an internal combustion (IC) engine, with an inductive pick-up (10), at least one tooth (15) is made a marker tooth by relieving the end portion (15') over a portion (B1) of its width (B) for a predetermined portion (H1) of the height (H) of the tooth, leaving the remainder of the tooth at its normal height (H) so that operation of the gear is not impaired. The output signal derived from the pick-up will be distorted when the at least one tooth passes thereby, thus providing a reference pulse. The tooth (16, 18) adjacent the marker tooth (15, 17) can be likewise relieved, preferably to a lesser extent. Relief can be parallel to the end portion of the tooth, or at an angle of inclination, the relief of an adjacent tooth preferably being at an angle of inclination opposite that of the marker tooth.
