Abstract
A weldable strain sensor includes a strain sensor having two end portions in signal communication with signal lines for transmitting a measurement signal. A sensor carrier extends in a direction of the strain sensor and is firmly connected to the strain sensor. The sensor carrier includes two end portions having slots to thereby form tongues defining tongue ends which are directed in opposition to each other. Integrally surrounding the strain sensor and the end portions thereof is a protective cover of solid plastic which is firmly connected to the sensor carrier. The protective cover is configured in a region of the strain sensor narrow and flat and in a region of coupling points of the strain sensor with the signal lines at least twice as wide and at least twice as high as in a region of the strain sensor.
