Abstract

See full text

The invention relates to a device for detecting the angle of rotation between two components (1, 2), which are rotatably interconnected via a pin (3). Said device comprises an angle sensor (5), which is directly or indirectly connected to one of the two components (1 or 2) in a rotationally fixed manner and whose sensor shaft (8) is rotatably fixed to the other component (2 or 1) via a lever-shaped driver (9), whereby the angle of rotation is detected by the angle sensor (5) from the twisting of the sensor shaft (8). The aim of the invention is to improve the device of the aforementioned type such that the angle of rotation between two components can be detected in a significantly more precise manner, and such that the device can be used in a more reliable and practical manner. To this end, the invention provides that the sensor shaft (8) is connected to the driver (9) via at least one torsion-proof flexible element (11, 12).
