Abstract

The detector contains a structure-borne sound microphone connected to an electronic evaluation unit with a piezoelectric sensor (18) for structure-borne sound vibrations. This sensor has a vibrating bar (28), which is attached by means of hybrid technology to a carrier (27). The vibrating bar (28) is formed by a bimorph element and the carrier by an electrically conductive ceramic wafer.
