Abstract
A device for non-contacting measurement of a measuring object is provided. The device includes at least one pair of associated coils, including a transmitter coil and a receiver coil. The transmitter coil generates a time varying magnetic field. In the receiver coil, a voltage is induced. The voltage is dependent on the location of the transmitter coil, the receiver coil and a measuring region of a measuring object. The device comprises a U-shaped structure with two branches. A retaining part is arranged between these branches. The transmitter and receiver coils are fixed to the branches of the U-shaped structure and the measuring object is intended to be arranged centrally in the opening of the U-shaped structure.
