  • Patent number: 10634526
    Abstract: A sensor module contains a sensor unit, a sensor cover, and a main body. The sensor unit has a sensor surface and a base surface. The sensor cover covers the sensor surface and at least a section of the base surface. The sensor cover is connected to the base surface and/or the main body by a fused connection. The main body is connected at least to the base surface of the sensor unit by a fused connection with a selectable relative position in relation to the sensor cover. Pre-mounting of the sensor unit in a sensor cover and advantageous encapsulation of a sensor can thus be achieved.

  • Patent number: 10188005
    Abstract: A control unit device for a motor vehicle includes a circuit board, on which a plurality of electronic components are disposed. The electronic components are electrically coupled to one another by conductor tracks on the circuit board. A substantially gas-impermeable cover is materially joined or bonded to the circuit board in such a way that the cover, together with the circuit board, forms a closed cavity in which the electronic components and the associated conductor tracks are located. A method for producing the control unit device is also provided.

  • Patent number: 9716337
    Abstract: A connecting device for electrically connecting electrical lines to electrical contacts includes a flexible circuit board or printed circuit board, a base support, and a cover. The electrical lines or conductors are disposed on the flexible circuit board. The flexible circuit board has a contacting-making region, in which at least one electrical line is electrically connected to at least one electrical contact. The electrical contacts are disposed on the base support. The flexible circuit board is disposed between the base support and the cover and the base support and the cover form a sealed housing for the contacting-making region.

    Abstract: A sensor assembly includes a metal carrier plate (2) and a sensor housing (3) made of plastic that contains at least one sensor element. The sensor housing (3) is connected to the carrier plate (2) by means of at least one screw (5) that is passed through a through hole (6) of the carrier plate (2). A screwing channel (7) in the sensor housing (3) is defined by the housing material. As a result, a sensor assembly is obtained where the screwed connection is secure.
