Abstract
A pressure force sensor has two oppositely located connectors for a force introduction to an inside located force sensor module which emits an output signal as a function of an external pressure force, a fork arm attached to each of the connectors and having two fork ends which are offset by 90° and enclose the force sensor module, and pressure elements located between respective bases of the fork arms and a force introduction surface of the force sensor module, the pressure elements being also laterally enclosed by angled sections of the fork ends, so that pressure forces as well as tensile forces can be passed from the connectors to the force introduction surface of the force sensor module.
