Sleeve for receiving a sensor, connected to the bumper of an automobile

摘要

Automobile distance sensors are becoming increasingly common. These sensors must be connected to the automobile bumper in a permanent fashion and rigidly in a predetermined installation position. According to the invention, the device for receiving an ultrasonic sensor is divided. A first part (3) is cast onto the bumper (1), the second part (11) being preferentially connected to the first part (3) in such a way that it cannot be detached. Advantageous embodiments are aimed at installing the sensor so that it is tilted and relate to preferred methods of connecting the two parts of the device. A second configuration relates to a sensor which is provided with a holder. The holder is particularly suitable for latching into the bumper at the front with a sensor.
