Abstract
A method for manufacturing a torque sensor includes: placing a first slip ring and a second slip ring inside a sensor case, the slip rings being distant from each other and each carrying respectively a first measuring terminal and a second measuring terminal which delimit an air gap therebetween; producing a sensor beam and a sensor beam subassembly, the sensor beam subassembly comprising a Hall effect cell configured to be placed in the air gap and measure the magnetic flux therein, and an electrical connection interface; and introducing the sensor beam into an access orifice which passes through a wall of the sensor case to open on the air gap, so as to place the Hall effect cell in the air gap, then fastening the sensor beam on the sensor case.
