Abstract
To enable fine adjustment of a sensor in a mounting device, a mounting device is provided for holding the sensor in an operating position. The mounting device comprises a base body having a first through-hole, a holding member having a second through-hole. The sensor is held in these through-holes by displacement of the holding member versus the base body and shifting the through-holes out of alignment. The holding member comprises an adjustment element, in particular a thread, which engages with an outer surface of the sensor in such a way that, when the sensor is rotated about a sensor central axis, the adjustment element causes the sensor to move along the central axis.
