Abstract
A distributor accommodates an angle-of-rotation sensor having a magnetic rotating member which is provided to detect the crank angles in an internal combustion engine. The air vent of the distributor is provided with a magnetic trap means that collects any ferrous particles and other such dust in air drawn into the distributor from the outside, preventing such particles adhering to the magnetic rotating member and producing otherwise detection output errors.
