Position sensor for fuel level measuring device in fuel tank of motor vehicle, has actuator arranged between strip guard and resistance path, where actuator connects strip guard with contact strip by deformation due to magnetic force

摘要

The sensor has a resistance path (7) including a contact strip (8) arranged along a strip guard (6), and a resistor strip (9) interconnected with the contact strip along the strip guard. A sheet-shaped actuator is arranged between the strip guard and the resistance path, where the actuator connects the strip guard with the contact strip by deformation due to magnetic force. An electrical contact (15) is connected to the strip guard, and another electrical contact (16) is connected to the resistance path, where the electric contacts are led out from a cabinet. An independent claim is also included for a fuel level measuring device for a fuel tank of a motor vehicle.
