A pressure sensor for an internal combustion engine, which includes: a body containing a pressure-measuring membrane and a device for attaching to the cylinder head of the engine; and an end piece which extends substantially in an axial extension of the body, and includes a long part, and a substantially hemispherical convexity positioned on the end part of the long part.

Cavitation anti-resonance and anti-soot end piece for pressure sensor of an internal combustion engine

Disclosed is a sensor for measuring the pressure prevailing in a motor vehicle cylinder head, the sensor including a tubular body and an element sensitive to variations in the pressure, mounted in the tubular body. The sensitive element includes a tether including a fixing portion for fixing the tether to the tubular body, a tubular portion and a membrane fixed to the tubular portion at a connecting zone. The sensor is notable in that the connecting zone and the fixing zone are separated by a non-zero distance along the longitudinal axis and in that the tether includes, between the connecting zone and the fixing portion, a portion for absorbing a mechanical deformation.

Sensor for measuring the pressure prevailing in a motor vehicle cylinder head

A support () for an electronic module () for generating a signal, this module being intended to be inserted into a sensor () for measuring the pressure of the gases contained in a vehicle cylinder, the support () including a portion () for receiving the electronic module () and elements () for retaining the electronic module () on the receiving portion (), the electronic module () including a body (), the receiving portion () including elements () for attaching the retaining elements (), and the retaining elements () being configured to pivot between an open position (PO) in which the electronic module () can be placed on the receiving portion () and a closed position in which the retaining elements () are attached to the attachment elements () in order to retain the body () of the electronic module () on the support ().
