Embodiment Construction

[0021] exist figure 1 A hydraulic clutch system 1 as it would be used in a motor vehicle is shown in . Such a clutch system 1 has a hydraulic actuation system in the form of a clutch master cylinder 4 , which comprises a cylinder designed as a housing 2 in which a piston 3 is mounted axially movable. The piston 3 is actuated by a clutch pedal 5 which acts on a piston rod 7 . The clutch master cylinder 4 is connected with the slave cylinder 9 for actuating the clutch 10 through a hydraulic line 8 . The adjustment of the position of the clutch 10 takes place on the basis of the actuation of the piston 3 via the clutch pedal 5 . In this case, clutch master cylinder 4 and clutch 10 with slave cylinder 9 are arranged spatially separated in the motor vehicle.

[0022] Arranged on the outside of the cylinder serving as housing 2 is an inductive sensor system 11 , opposite said inductive sensor system an electrically conductive target 12 fastened to the end face of piston 3 . The ...

Abstract

The invention relates to a plunger-cylinder assembly, in particular for a master cylinder of a clutch actuating system in a motor vehicle. The plunger-cylinder assembly comprises a plunger and a sensor system, wherein the plunger is arranged axially movably in a cylinder which is configured as a housing, and the sensor system is arranged on the housing and is operatively connected to a sensor constituent part which is fastened to the plunger. In a plunger-cylinder assembly, in which the assembly is simplified by way of a reduction in the interfaces, the sensor system is positioned on a leadframe assembly which is integrated into the plastic housing.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a piston-cylinder assembly, in particular for a master cylinder of a clutch actuating system in a motor vehicle, with a piston and a sensor system, the piston being arranged axially movable in a housing designed In the cylinder, the sensor system is arranged on the housing and is operatively connected to a sensor component fastened to the piston. Background technique [0002] In hydraulic clutch release systems used in motor vehicles, linear displacement measurement systems are used to sense the position of a piston guided in a master cylinder in order to be able to determine the actuation state of the clutch of the motor vehicle. The linear path measuring system comprises a sensor system consisting of an inductive sensor unit with a conductive target, which should also be referred to as a sensor component. Furthermore, however, it is also possible to use a Hall sensor as the sensor system which comprises a permanent magnet as...
