A magnetic sensor. A plurality of sensing parts are deposited and formed on an element substrate in film form. The inside two of the sensing parts are connected in series to use for a reading of a narrow pitch magnetic pattern, and the outside two of the sensing parts are also connected in series to use for a reading of a wide pitch magnetic pattern. The connection of the sensing parts is carried out by using terminals and wires. The terminals are provided so as to short-circuit the ends of the sensing parts or for every sensing part.

Magnetic sensor for detecting coarse and fine magnetic patterns

A magnetic sensor unit includes an elongated nonmagnetic sensor case, magnets, magnetic sensors, and positioning portions. The sensor case has a plurality of sensor housing recesses formed in a row in its upper surface in its longitudinal direction, and magnet housing recesses formed in a row in its lower surface at positions respectively corresponding to the sensor housing recesses. At least the upper surface of the sensor case is covered with a nonmagnetic cover. The magnets are respectively housed in the magnet housing recesses of the sensor case. The magnetic sensors are respectively housed in the sensor housing recesses of the sensor case and have magnetoelectric transducers magnetically biased by the magnets. The positioning portions are respectively formed in the sensor housing recesses of the sensor case and respectively position the magnetic sensors in a longitudinal direction thereof and a direction perpendicular thereto.

Magnetic detecting unit having aligned sensors

A magnetic sensor for arranging at least one detection unit having a magnetoelectric transducer element for converting magnetic data printed on a bank note, a bond or the like into electric signals and inserted into a unit receiving slot in alignment on a detection line by a screw member provided on a sensor case. A nonmagnetic head cover for covering the unit receiving slot of the magnetic sensor is fixed to the magnetic sensor by engaging claw portions provided on the head cover with claw portion receiving grooves on the side surfaces of the sensor case with resilience or inserting leg portions provided on the head cover into cover receiving grooves provided on sensor case with the unit receiving slot therebetween.

Magnetic sensor

A magnetic sensor includes magnetic sensor elements arrange on the upper surface of a bobbin and an input/output section provided on the lower surface of the bobbin wherein the magnetic sensor elements and the input/output section are connected through a wiring pattern formed on the bobbin by electroless plating.
