Abstract
An adapter for a sensor measuring a differential signal comprises two electrically conductive test-contact elements which are arranged in each case eccentrically relative to an axis of rotation in order to register respectively one partial signal of the differential signal. Moreover, two adjustment components, each rotatable about one of the two axes of rotation, are provided in the adapter for the adjustment of a variable spacing distance between the two test-contact elements. The two adjustment components are connected to one another in a force-fit manner.
Claims16
An adapter comprising:
- two adjustment components, each configured to be positioned in a rotatable manner about an axis of rotation relative to a respective connector element of a sensor device base-element;
- and
- two electrically conductive test-contact elements, each situated on a respective one of the adjustment components in a fixed manner with respect to the respective adjustment component and in a defined eccentric manner relative to the axis of rotation of the respective adjustment component, wherein the test-contact elements are configured in order to register a partial signal of a differential signal being measured;
- and
- wherein the two adjustment components are arranged in a force-fit connection with one another in a manner whereby, when positioned on the respective connector elements of the sensor device base-element, rotation of an adjustment component about its respective axis of rotation adjusts a variable spacing distance between the two test-contact elements, while maintaining a symmetrical orientation between the two test-contact elements.
