Abstract
In order to improve a sensor assembly comprising a sensor which can be fixed in position on a functional unit and has a sensor housing, in which a sensor element with evaluation electronics is arranged, in such a manner that as simple and universal a fixing of the sensor as possible on the functional unit is feasible it is suggested that the sensor assembly comprises a sensor holder which can be brought into a position following the sensor housing in longitudinal direction and can be detachably connected to the sensor housing in this position by means of form-locking elements and that the sensor be fixable on the functional unit by means of the sensor holder.
Claims22
Sensor assembly comprising:
- a sensor adapted to be fixed in position on a functional unit and having a sensor housing,
- a sensor element with evaluation electronics being arranged in said housing, and
- a sensor holder adapted to be inserted into a groove of the functional unit and fixed in position in the functional unit and adapted to be brought into a position in line with the sensor housing in the groove and to be detachably connected to the sensor housing in this in-line position by means of form-locking elements and wherein the sensor is adapted to be fixed in position on the functional unit by means of the sensor holder.
Sensor assembly comprising:
- a sensor adapted to be fixed in position on a functional unit and having a sensor housing,
- a sensor element with evaluation electronics being arranged in said housing, and
- a sensor holder adapted to be brought into a position following the sensor housing in longitudinal direction and to be detachably connected to the sensor housing in said position by means of form-locking elements and wherein the sensor is adapted to be fixed in position on the functional unit by means of the sensor holder;
- wherein the sensor holder has a holding element engaging over the sensor housing on at least one side.
