Abstract:
A measurement device for measuring an intake air mass along a flow direction (9) of an internal combustion engine, comprising a plate-shaped sensor element (2), which is inserted into a recess (17) of a sensor support (1) and has a membrane (4) that supports a measuring element (6), which membrane encloses a hollow space (5) embodied in the sensor element (2) on a side remote from the sensor support (1), wherein the sensor element (2) is secured in the recess (17) by a glue means provided between the sensor support (1) and a bottom face (29) of the sensor element (2) oriented toward the sensor support (1), the glue means having a glue seam (27; 60) that extends around the hollow space (5) of the sensor element (2) between the sensor support (1) and the bottom face (29) of the sensor element (2), said glue means being open only on a side remote from the flow direction (9) by means of at least one recess (40) in order to ventilate the hollow space (5).
