Claims11
A movement sensor, wherein the movement sensor comprises a plurality of plate-type layers on which individual sensors are arranged, and wherein
- one of the layers is configured as a cover plate and one of the layers is configured as a base plate,
- the cover plate and the base plate have corner points in which connection contacts are arranged,
- the cover plate and the base plate each have a sensor-associated surface, which sensor-associated surfaces are connected to the connection contacts via conductor tracks,
- at least one plate-type layer configured as a chamber plate having a cutout is arranged between the cover plate and the base plate,
- the chamber plate has corner points in which connection contacts are arranged,
- the sensor-associated surfaces of the cover plate and of the base plate are arranged with register accuracy over the cutout of the chamber plate, such that a closed hollow chamber is produced, inner surfaces of which are electrically conductively connected to the connection contacts arranged in the corner points thereof via conductor tracks,
- an electrically conductive ball is arranged in the hollow chamber,
- the connection contacts are configured as contact columns led through all plate-type layers,
- the cover plate has a conductor track connected to the base plate via a contact column without an electrical connection to a contact surface of the base plate arising, and
- the cover plate, the base plate and inner surfaces of the hollow chamber of the chamber plate are electrically insulated from one another.
