  • Patent number: 11116076
    Abstract: A flexible conductor track (10) for connecting electronic modules, includes conductor track structures (12), two connecting regions (14, 16) for electrically connecting the conductor track structures (12) to corresponding conductor tracks of electronic modules, and at least one long slit (18, 20) in a region (11) in the conductor track (10) located between the two connecting regions. At least one of the connecting regions is designed to be connected to a corresponding connecting region of an electronic module by anisotropic conductive film adhesive (ACFA) bonding.

  • Patent number: 8864197
    Abstract: An electromagnetic sensor having a detection zone in a sensor direction is at least partly enclosed by a molded part in the sensor direction and at right angles thereto. The molded part contacts and adjoins a motor vehicle part such as a bumper, whereby the molded part is between the sensor and the motor vehicle part. At least one functional element, such as a radiation absorber, a lense, a waveguide, or a reflector, may be embedded in the molded part. The sensor may be received in a pocket recess of the molded part, with an opening at the back side of the sensor.

  • Publication number: 20130141269
    Abstract: The invention relates to a device for fastening a sensor assembly (1) on a motor vehicle, especially a radar sensor having at least one detection zone in the sensor direction, the sensor assembly (1) being located in the area behind a motor vehicle add-on part (2), in particular a bumper, and a moulded part (3) being arranged between the sensor assembly (1) and the motor vehicle add-on part (2). According to the invention, the moulded part (3) is a solid part, the moulded part (3) is designed to transmit the sensor signals in the detection zone, on its side facing the assembly, the moulded part (3) positively encloses at least part of the sensor assembly (1) in, and at right angles to, the sensor direction, and on its side facing the add-on part, the moulded part (3) has a surface (3a) that is shaped complementary to, and lies flat against, the surface (2a) of the motor vehicle add-on part (2).

  • Patent number: 6113590
    Abstract: In a probe disposed at the distal end of a heart catheter for the coagulation of muscle and connective tissues by subjecting them to a high frequency field, a pressure sensor is provided for measuring the axial force effective on the probe tip which pressure sensor inlcudes a plastic body with an axial bore into which a light conductor extends and which has at its end opposite the light conductor a mirror for reflecting light supplied through the light conductor back into the light conductor. The plastic body is resiliently movably supported with respect to the light conductor so that the light reflected by the mirror back into the light conductor depends on the displacement of the probe tip caused by a pressure force applied to the probe tip.
