  • Decoupling element for an ultrasonic sensor
    Patent number: 12411220
    Abstract: A decoupling element for an ultrasonic sensor is disclosed. The ultrasonic sensor is able to be attached to a flat component for a vehicle. The flat component includes a cutout. The ultrasonic sensor includes a cylindrical ultrasonic transceiver element which is able to be introduced into the cutout. The decoupling element includes a hollow-cylindrical element for enclosing the cylindrical ultrasonic transceiver element of the ultrasonic sensor and a plurality of support ribs which are arranged in the radial direction outside the hollow-cylindrical element and are spaced apart from one another in a circumferential direction of the hollow-cylindrical element for supporting the decoupling element on a region of the flat component outside the cutout when the cylindrical ultrasonic transceiver element with the hollow-cylindrical element enclosing it is introduced by an end portion at an axial end into the cutout.
