Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for producing a sensor module and a sensor module produced using this method.
- a method for producing a sensor module consisting of at least a sensor head, a metal cover, a plug module and a plug element with the following steps is therefore proposed:
- the plug element has a meltable material on a side facing the metal cover at least in a partial area and wherein the metal cover has a surface on the side facing the plug element at least in a partial area on which the meltable material of the Connector element is applied;
- the plug element is designed, for example, as a plastic housing for the plug module.
- the plug element is designed in such a way that the plug module can be inserted into the plug element.
- the plug element is pressed onto the metal cover, with the meltable material being located directly above the surface of the metal cover and the material and the surface of the metal cover having an essentially the same geometry.
- the metal cover on the connector element the side facing away from it is heated to melt the meltable material. After melting, the meltable material flows onto the intended surface and thus creates a connection between the metal cover and the plug element.
- the plug module can have all common plug interfaces that are relevant for the automotive sector.
- a structure is provided into which the molten fusible material flows.
- This structure is particularly advantageous because such a structure has, for example, grooves or generally depressions into which the liquid material can flow. This advantageously creates a more robust connection between the plug element and the metal cover.
- the metal cover is preferably heated using a laser, hot plate or inductively. These methods represent a preferred way of enabling particularly uniform and rapid heating of the metal cover.
- a sensor module comprising at least one sensor head, a metal cover, a plug module and a plug element
- the plug element has a meltable material on a side facing the metal cover at least in a partial area
- the metal cover on a side facing the plug element at least in one Partial area has a surface onto which the fusible material is applied
- the plug element and the metal plate each having a central recess into which the plug module can be inserted, with heating of the metal cover establishing a connection between the plug element and the metal plate by melting the fusible material is generated on the surface of the metal cover.
- the plug element is designed, for example, as a plastic housing for the plug module.
- the plug element is designed in such a way that the plug module can be inserted into the plug element.
- the plug element is pressed onto the metal cover, with the meltable material being located directly above the surface of the metal cover and the material and the surface of the metal cover having an essentially the same geometry. Meanwhile, the metal cover on the side facing away from the plug element is heated to melt the fusible material. After melting, the meltable material flows onto the intended surface and thus creates a connection between the metal cover and the plug element.
- the metal cover consists, for example, of the aluminum alloy AL99.5. However, other materials are also conceivable.
- the plug module can have all common plug interfaces that are relevant for the automotive sector.
- the surface of the metal cover has a structure which is designed such that the fusible material flows into this structure to create a connection between the metal cover and the plug element.
- This structure is particularly advantageous because such a structure has, for example, grooves or generally depressions into which the liquid material can flow. This advantageously creates a more robust connection between the plug element and the metal cover
- the structure of the surface of the metal cover is particularly preferably created using a laser, punching or milling. These methods are preferred material processing methods by means of which it is particularly easy to structure the metal cover in a predefined area leaves. Other metal processing processes by which a structure can be created would also be conceivable.
- the surface is arranged in a ring shape around the recess for the plug module. This is advantageous because in this way the size of the necessary sealing surface can be reduced to the bare minimum, which in turn influences the required amount of meltable material.
- meltable material is particularly preferably arranged in a ring shape around the recess for the plug module on the plug element.
- An annular arrangement is advantageous because in this way the amount of meltable material can be advantageously reduced and an adequate seal can still be ensured.
- the plug module When connecting the metal plate to the plug element, the plug module is preferably arranged on the metal plate or in the plug element.
- the plug module can accordingly already be integrated into the plug element before the connection step or can be arranged in the recess in the metal plate. There are no differences when creating the connection, which is why these variants are possible without further adjustments.
- the meltable material is preferably a plastic.
- any plastic can be used here that has a lower melting point than the plug element itself.

- the metal cover 3 is heated on a side 3b facing away from the plug element, the melting material 5 melting as a result of the heating.
- step S4 a connection is established between the plug element 2 and the metal cover 3 at least in the one shown on the Surface F provided for metal cover is generated by the meltable material 5.
