  • Publication number: 20230184294
    Abstract: Sensor component with a magnetic field sensor (2) for co-operating with at least one magnet (24, 26) and with a component structure (3), where the magnetic field sensor (2) is arranged on and/or in the component structure (3). In order to reduce the manufacturing cost and/or the assembly effort and/or to be able in a simple manner to position the magnetic field sensor (2) as close as possible to the at least one magnet (24, 26), the sensor component (1) is characterized in that the component structure (3) is in the form of a screw for producing a screw connection (15).

  • Publication number: 20230173867
    Abstract: A chassis component (1, 32) has a first end section (2), a second end section (3), and a connecting section (4) between the two end sections (2, 3), with at least one bearing (9, 10) in one of the two end sections (2, 3). A sensor device (13) has a sensor housing (14, 33) with a first sensor element (16). To improve and/or enable the arrangement of the sensor device (13) and/or the sensor housing (14) on the chassis component (1, 32), the two end sections (2, 3) and the connecting section (4) of the chassis are made as a one-piece profile (5) open on one side along its length, such that the open profile (5) forms an at least partially free inside space (17), and where the first sensor element (16) is located within the inside space (17).
