Handle module with actuating module for an electronic locking system, and vehicle door with handle module

A handle module comprising at least one actuating module for triggering a switching function, wherein the actuating module is designed as a capacitive actuating sensor, and comprises:

• two or more auxiliary electrodes for detecting secondary signals,
• a stroke-sensing main electrode for detecting an actuation path, and
• an electronic evaluation unit which is connected to the auxiliary electrodes and the stroke-sensing main electrode,
• wherein the evaluation unit is configured to trigger or block a switching signal for the switching function as a function of the detected signals of the auxiliary electrodes and the detected signal of the stroke-sensing main electrode,
• wherein the at least one actuating module is a metal-over-capacitive touch sensor module,
• wherein a movable sensor element is provided which is arranged opposite and spaced apart from the stroke-sensing main electrode, which is fixed,
• wherein the movable sensor element has a first surface in direct facing contact with a module housing, and an opposite second surface directly above or below a first surface of the fixed stroke-sensing main electrode,
• wherein the auxiliary electrodes are arranged surrounding each side of the fixed stroke-sensing main electrode and the movable sensor element is arranged laterally offset to the auxiliary electrodes so that the movable sensor element does not laterally overlap the auxiliary electrodes.
