The present invention relates to a sensing device (10) designed for being applied on a first flap (11) and on a second flap (12) of an opening (13) arranged in a wearable item (14). The sensing device (10) comprises: a triggering element (20) arranged on the first flap (11) of the opening (13) and comprising an activating component (23); a switch element (30) arranged on the second flap (12) of the opening (13) and comprising a sensing component (33); the sensing component (33) being designed for emitting an electrical output signal when it is put in a predetermined mutual position with respect to the activating component (23). According to the invention the triggering element (20) is provided with at least one alignment component (22; 22A, 22B) designed for interacting with a corresponding alignment component (32; 32A, 32B) of the switch element (30) so as to autonomously and automatically put in said predetermined mutual position the activating component (23) and the sensing component (33) when the first flap (11) is drawn close to the second flap (12), or viceversa. The invention also relates to a closure device comprising said sensing device (10) and to a method for manufacturing said sensing device (10).
A sensing device positionable on a first flap and a second flap of a wearable item, the first and second flaps when separated defining an opening, comprising:
