Sensor Arrangement for a Vehicle and Corresponding Method for Producing such a Sensor Arrangement

Abstract

A sensor arrangement for a vehicle includes a sensor element and a connection cable at least partially encased with plastic by means of injection moulding in order to form a sensor housing. The sensor housing is connected to a fastening tab which comprises a base body having fastening means. The fastening tab includes an insertion sleeve which is connected to the base body and into which a sensor housing body of the sensor housing is inserted. The sensor housing and the insertion sleeve each comprise fixing means which are designed in such a manner that there are different angular positions for fixing the sensor housing and the fastening tab. The sensor housing and the fastening tab are fixed in one of the different angular positions with respect to one another.

Description

PRIOR ART[0001]The invention is based on a sensor arrangement for a vehicle of the generic type of independent patent claim 1 and on a corresponding method for producing such a sensor arrangement of independent patent claim 7.[0002]German Laid-Open Patent Application DE 10 2008 042 091 A1 describes a method for producing a magnetic field sensor and a corresponding magnetic field sensor, in particular for use as a rotational speed sensor and / or direction of rotation sensor for the rotation of the wheel or for the drive train of a motor vehicle. The described magnetic field sensor comprises an electrical assembly for sensing and evaluating magnetic field signals and a connecting cable, which are together encased in plastic in an injection molding process. At the same time, a fastening tab is integrally molded on, which fastening tab has a base body with a fastening bush. The described production method uses fabrication methods which are proven for the production of sensors with an axi...

Benefits of technology

[0004]The sensor arrangement according to the invention for a vehicle having the features of independent claim 1 and a corresponding method for producing such a sensor having the features of independent claim 7 have the advantage that a sensor element and a connecting cable are at least partially encased with plastic by injection molding in order to form a sensor housing, and the sensor housing is subsequently connected to a fastening tab which comprises a base body with fastening means. The fastening tab can also be produced, for example, as a plastic injection molded part in a separate work step. According to the invention, the fastening tab comprises an insertion sleeve which is connected to the base body and into which a sensor housing body of the sensor housing is inserted, wherein the sensor housing and the insertion sleeve each comprise securing means which are embodied in such a way that various angular positions for securing the sensor housing and the fastening tab are present, wherein the sensor housing and the fastening tab are s
