To display the gear position on the indicator on the dash, the gear position sensor translates the rotation angle of the shift drum mounted on the motorcycle’s transmission into electricity.
It enhances comfortable and fuel-efficient riding. Accurate gear position monitoring aids adherence to emission control requirements, enhances fuel efficiency, and allows for fine engine control for each gear.
The rotational sliding contact points used by the gear position sensor make it susceptible to wear and collision damage.
The Global gear shift sensors market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
The KA Sensors GSS (Gear Shift Load Cell) is a device that is installed in-line with a gear linkage and produces an output based on whether it is under compression or tension.
This allows an ECU to determine whether a higher or lower gear is being selected on a sequential gearbox and allows a torque reduction strategy to be initiated.
Miniature load cells from the GSS Series are intended for use in gear shift applications to detect and monitor compression and tension stresses.
The GSS Series Load Cell senses the force applied to the gear shift lever as the driver moves the gear lever normally throughout the gear-changing process.
Miniature load cells from the GSS Series are intended for the detection and a gear shift application that measures tension and compression forces.
Stainless steel is used for the construction, and an integrated amplifier enables a relatively straightforward installation requiring simply a three wire connection.
Mechanical mounting uses M6 screws and also M8 threads. The output signal is linear from 0.5 to and proportional to the applied force.
Most typical ECUs can be wired to 4.5V. Typically, applications are for using techniques including flat shifting, quick shifting, torque cutting, ignition cutting, and clutch-free race cars with a gearshift.
In most cases, the actuator rod or cable is where the load cells are mounted gearboxes.
