Abstract
A connection construction of a turning angle detector which comprises a lever in the form of a large-diameter member secured to a shaft to be detected and extending in the radial direction of the shaft to be detected, a pin secured at right angles to the lever, a connection shaft projecting outward from a boss portion of the turning angle detector and having a large-diameter portion larger than the diameter of the boss portion, and a pinching portion for pinching the pin in the large-diameter portion of the connection shaft so that the pin is movable in the radial direction and axial direction within its pinched range, but its movement in the circumferential direction is restricted, wherein the rotation of the shaft to be detected is transmitted to the connection shaft of the turning angle detector, whereby an error arising at the time of assembly can be absorbed by the space between the pinching portion and the pin to make easy the process of assembly, and it is possible to configure mutually tightly the connection shaft and the boss portion for supporting rotatably the connection shaft; thus, infiltration of water and the like can be prevented.
