Abstract
A pressure sensor is provided with two supporting bodies () with plane supporting surfaces () between which a hose () is compressed or flattened. For measuring the internal pressure of the hose (), pressure transmission means (or) is displaceable in a gap () that is arranged at a supporting body (or) adjacent to the compressed of flattened hose (). The pressure transmission means (or) presses against the plane surface of the flattened-hose () and is supported on a force sensor (). Thus, the deformation forces generated upon compressing the hose are eliminated for the measurement of pressure.
