Pressure-Measuring Device

Abstract

A pressure-measuring device is to be placed in a chamber of an internal combustion engine. The pressure-measuring device has a housing, a force-transmission element projecting out of the housing, and a pressure sensor disposed in an interior chamber of the housing. On the one hand, the pressure sensor is braced on a fixation element. On the other hand, to detect a pressure prevailing inside the chamber, the pressure sensor is operatively connected to the force-transmission element. The pressure sensor has a straight-through recess through which an electrical line is routed. In addition, a positioning element is provided, which has a straight-through recess in a guide region, the electrical line being routed through the straight-through recess, and the positioning element having a reduced thickness in the guide region. This makes it possible to reduce friction of the electrical line in the guide region at the straight-through recess, so that the pressure measurement is improved.
