Abstract

A displacement pickup for detecting positions of an adjusting device, in particular an adjusting device of fuel injection pumps. In an advantageous manner, an adjustment of the displacement pickup can be performed with the aid of a cylindrical tang, which is displaceable and fixable in a through bore in the wall of a housing receiving the adjusting device and through the interior of which an adjusting device of the displacement pickup can be adjusted from outside the housing. In a displacement pickup advantageously embodied as a rotary potentiometer, a contact means of a resistor (R.sub.a) of the resistance course of the potentiometer can thus be adjusted.
