SENSOR UNIT AND BEARING ASSEMBLY COMPRISING SUCH A SENSOR UNIT

摘要

A sensor unit for sensing the angular position of a rotating element with respect to a fixed element includes a target fastened to the rotating element and a given number of sensing cells. Each sensing cell is connected to a connection device adapted to provide power supply, transmit data delivered by the sensing cells and connect each sensing cell to the ground. The sensor unit provides an output connector for electrically connecting the sensor unit to a reception device, a power supply system and the ground, via a connection cable having at least two connection wires. The connector includes, for each wire of the connection cable, a connection pin having a clamp portion adapted to receive an end of the wire, and a plug portion adapted to make a pressing contact with the connection device.
