2112235 9301886 PCTABS00019 In an improved method for measuring the distance (B) between two mutually opposing surfaces (1, 2) by means of the reluctance method, there is used a position indicator (4) whose measuring device (9) is mounted on an associated core (6) arranged on one (1) of the two surfaces. The other (2) of the surfaces is provided either with a permanent magnet or an electromagnet (14). When the opposing surfaces rotate in relation to one another (R), the distance can be measured with the aid of a winding whose induced electromotive force constitutes a measurement of the distance to be measured. A value of the sought distance can also be obtained with the aid of a Hall-element (9), which in the detection of a static magnetic field produces an electric current value which constitutes a measurement of the distance to be measured. The magnetic field is balanced with the aid of a coil (N2) mounted on the core, thereby enabling the distance to be measured by measuring the adjusting current supplied to the balancing coil. When the magnetizing device (M) on the other surface has the form of an electromagnet, the current supply to the device and to a further balancing coil (N2') on the core is advantageously an alternating supply.
