Abstract
A torque sensor unit may include a ring magnet that is connectable to a first partial shaft and is concentric with a longitudinal axis. Two first magnetic flux conductors are connectable to a second partial shaft, are arranged in a ring magnet magnetic field, and conduct magnetic fluxes. A spatially fixed sensor unit may have two second magnetic flux conductors and a magnetic sensor on a printed circuit board, all of which are receivable in a housing. The sensor unit can detect a change in a rotation angle between the partial shafts by measuring magnetic flux density between the first magnetic flux conductors. A second housing surrounds the ring magnet, the first magnetic flux conductors, and the sensor unit. A magnetic shield surrounds the sensor unit at least partially circumferentially relative to the longitudinal axis and is arranged between a housing cover closing the second housing and the second housing.
