Abstract
A brake actuation sensor device is described for a brake system of a vehicle having a strain and/or compression gage which is reversibly variable in its extension, whereby at least one electrical property is able to be changed, and an evaluation device, by which at least one electrical variable is able to be ascertained with respect to the changeable electrical property, and, taking into account the at least one ascertained electrical variable, an evaluation variable is able to be determined with respect to a brake actuating force, the strain and/or compression gage being additionally developed so that the strain and/or compression gage is able to be situated in direct or indirect contact with a brake booster housing device in such a way that a force exerted on the brake booster housing device causes a mechanical stress in the strain and/or compression gage. Furthermore, a method is described for mounting a brake actuation sensor device of a brake system of a vehicle.
