Sensor holder for a sensor for object detection

A sensor holder for a sensor for object detection, comprising:

• an installation unit for the sensor;
• a holding frame on which the installation unit is pivotably held;
• and
• an adjustment shaft mounted on the holding frame, the adjustment shaft being aligned transversely to a pivot axis of the of the installation unit and parallel to a principal radiating direction of the sensor, the adjustment shaft having a guidance contour which proceeds helically around the adjustment shaft and is in engagement with a guidance element of the installation unit,
• wherein the holding frame has two coaxially disposed snap-in receptacles configured as rotary bearings that each have a hollow, cylindrical shape, are open on circumferential portions thereof, and respectively wrap around bearing portions of the adjustment shaft over a circumferential angle range of more than 180°, so that the bearing portions adapted to an inside diameter of the snap-in receptacles are held in snap-locked fashion in the snap-in receptacles, and
• wherein a center portion of the adjustment shaft encompasses the guidance contour, and said center portion is disposed between the bearing portions.
