ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a torque detecting apparatus provided with a conversion device, which is positioned on the axis of one of an input shaft and an output shaft extended on a same axis and mutually connected by a torsion bar and which serves to convert the relative rotational displacement between the input and output shafts into a linear displacement, a slidable member causing a sliding motion corresponding to the linear displacement obtained by the conversion by the conversion device, and detection device for generating an electrical signal by detecting the sliding motion of the slidable member. The conversion device comprises a lever shaft portion, a leg portion and link arrangement.
The leg portion oscillates, when the lever shaft portion of conversion device is rotated by the link arrangement, to cause the sliding motion of a slidable member, engaging with the leg portion on the other shaft.
