Abstract

The invention relates to a device for ensuring safe movement of a moving part. The movement of the moving part is guided along or about an axis (4; 42) and is limited by at least one stop (1; 20; 51). The device comprises means for recording the exceeding of a nominal force by a force exerted on the stop (1; 20; 51) by the moving part along or about the axis (4; 42). The invention is particularly applicable to angle-of-attack sensors used in aeronautics.
