Abstract
The sensor comprises: a flat deformation element including first and second planar surfaces; a sensor lug extending starting from the first surface; a connection sleeve extending from the deformation element; a transducer element, which is arranged within the connection sleeve and contacts the first surface with a contact surface, for generating an electrical sensor signal representing temporally changing movements of the sensor lug and/or temporally changing deformations of the deformation element; and a fastener positioned within the connection sleeve and mechanically connected thereto, for fixing the transducer element in the connection sleeve, wherein the fastener includes a spring assembly with at least two stacked disk springs, which are elastically deformed by exerting a pressing force which holds the transducer element against the deformation element.
