ABSTRACT:
In known sensors, "failure" conditions led to approximately a 10 fold amplification of the failures. Contrary to this, a rotation-angle sensor of this invention provides a rotation-angle sensor housing (5) held within a component cover (1) to have translatory movement, with a rotation-angle-sensor shaft (3) and a component shaft (6) being coupled via a coupling piece (7). Each shaft end (8, 9) of the coupling piece has flat-edge portions, with one shaft end (9) having many more of flat-edge portions than does the other shaft end (8). The rotation-angle-sensor shaft (3) and the component shaft (6) have complementary recesses for receiving the shaft ends. This rotation-angle sensor is particularly adapted to be used for monitoring brake lining of vehicles.
