US 2017/0363499 A1 · Pressure Sensor

Abstract

A pressure sensor for determining a pressure of a medium is configured to be screwed into a hydraulic control block, and includes a sleeve-shaped connector stub and sensor element. The stub has a plurality of axial sections, and an axial through bore configured to receive the medium. The axial sections include a threaded section, flange section, carrier section, and tapered portion. The flange section has an annular face facing the threaded section and configured to bear against a surface of the control block. The carrier section includes an inner opening that opens into the bore. The sensor element is positioned on the opening to sealingly close the opening, and is configured to measure the pressure of the medium. The tapered portion defines a reduction in a radial external diameter of the stub between the flange section and the carrier section.
