Abstract
A sensor pin carrier (34) is disposed in a housing (20) and rests on a support member (26) by way of a bearing which is arranged all around a central longitudinal axis (40), and the sensor pin carrier is designed for securing at least one sensor pin (38). The sensor pin carrier (34) is attached in the middle of an elastic disc (30) disposed vertically with respect to the longitudinal axis (40) and secured at its outer edge in the housing (20). At least one electric switch (56) is associated with the sensor pin carrier (34) to generate a signal upon deflections of the sensor pin (38).
