Abstract

The universal active shaft sensor mounting assembly comprises a base including structure thereon for fixedly engaging a rotational shaft sensor onto an end of a rotatable shaft in a manner maintaining the sensor fixed in position against rotation. The assembly is fixed to the end of the shaft by a spindle rotatably engaged to the base with the axis of rotation for the spindle and shaft being the same. A target element fixedly engages another end of the rotatable spindle, rotating therewith and interacting with the sensor mounted to the base.
