Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim
97 words
A frequency generator, comprising: a rotary body which rotates about a shaft, a magnetic flux generating portion which rotates concentrically of said shaft, a generating coil pattern opposed to said magnetic flux generating portion, and a circuit board, wherein said circuit board has one surface which faces said flux generating portion and which has a plurality of circuit elements, said generating coil pattern and a wiring pattern connecting said circuit elements disposed thereon, and wherein said generating coil pattern is printed on an undercoat which serves as an insulating layer and is provided on said wiring pattern.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
97 words
A frequency generator, comprising: a rotary body which rotates about a shaft, a magnetic flux generating portion which rotates concentrically of said shaft, a generating coil pattern opposed to said magnetic flux generating portion, and a circuit board, wherein said circuit board has one surface which faces said flux generating portion and which has a plurality of circuit elements, said generating coil pattern and a wiring pattern connecting said circuit elements disposed thereon, and wherein said generating coil pattern is printed on an undercoat which serves as an insulating layer and is provided on said wiring pattern.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
53 words
The frequency generator according to claim 1 wherein said circuit board has a hole for accepting said shaft, and is disposed so that the center of said hole coincides with the center of said shaft, said generating coil pattern being formed on a concentric circle whose center is the center of said hole.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
22 words
The frequency generator according to claim 1 wherein said generating coil pattern is formed by printing silver paste on said insulating layer.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
43 words
The frequency generator according to claim 2 wherein said generating coil pattern is printed while said circuit board is positionally fixed with reference to said hole in order that the center of said hole coincides with the center of said generating coil pattern.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
24 words
The frequency generator according to claim 1 wherein said generating coil pattern is formed in an annular configuration which is concentric with said hole.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
30 words
The frequency generator according to claim 1 wherein said generating coil pattern is overcoated by a second insulating layer which includes an opening where said generating coil is partly exposed.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
56 words
The frequency generator according to claim 1 wherein an electrode portion is associated with said wiring pattern for connecting it to said generating coil pattern, said insulating layer having an opening at a portion corresponding to said electrode portion, said electrode portion of said wiring pattern being connected to said generating coil pattern through said opening.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
13 words
The frequency generator according to claim 7 wherein said electrode portion is metal-plated.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
15 words
The frequency generator according to claim 8 wherein said metal plating is nickel- or solder-plating.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
32 words
The frequency generator according to claim 1, wherein said circuit board is a single flat board having a conductor pattern on only one side thereof, said conductor pattern being said wiring pattern.
