Abstract
A device for the contactless indirect electrical measurement of the torque at a shaft utilizing the Matteucci effect in which the shaft is located in an induced magnetic direct-axis field. Upon torsion of the shaft, the change in magnetization in the shaft itself is not measured, but rather a measuring layer applied to the shaft is metrologically detected by the device. In order to avoid disturbing influences from the basic magnetization of the shaft on the measuring layer, a further layer is applied to the shaft, which short-circuits the magnetic flux resulting from the basic magnetization of the shaft, the measuring layer being magnetically decoupled from the inner layer by a highly nonmagnetic layer between the inner, further layer and the measuring layer.
