Title: Hans P. Meyer: Magnetic Field Sensor Inventor.

Introduction

Hans P. Meyer is an inventor associated with Nuremberg, Germany, and Alcatel N.V. His work includes magnetic field detection technologies designed to provide rugged construction, high resolution, and practical electrical connections. He is credited with 3 patents.

Latest Patents

Meyer’s listed patents include “Magnetic Field Sensor with Magnetic Field-Dependent Resistor.” The invention places magnetic-field-dependent resistors on a support against the inside of a housing’s detector side wall. The wall is made thinner near the resistors’ active surface than the other housing walls or base, helping create a rugged, high-resolution sensor.

Another listed invention, “Mounting Arrangement for Magnetic Field Detector,” describes a sensor assembly with multiple stripe-shaped magnetic-field-dependent resistors on a dielectric support and a permanent magnet oriented perpendicular to the support. It presents alternative layouts for positioning the sensor and electrical contacts inside the housing. Small wire conductors connect the resistors to internal terminals, while solder or plug contacts provide external connections.

Career Highlights

Meyer’s patent work focuses on magnetic field sensors and their mechanical and electrical integration. The described designs address sensor placement, housing structure, magnetic components, and connections to external equipment.

Collaborations

Meyer’s listed coworkers include Helmut Becker and Wieland A. Bartel. His work is associated with Alcatel N.V.
