Patent ID: 7513162

Claim:
Vibration sensor or measurement detector, comprising: a connecting cable for at least one of electrical supply voltages and signal voltages, a sensor housing with a clamping or winding space on a bottom of the sensor housing into which at least one turn of the connecting cable is receivable with the at least one turn lying in a single plane and the connecting cable emerging from the clamping or winding space to the outside in a tangential direction relative to the at least one turn of the connecting cable wherein the sensor housing has both a winding space and a clamping space, wherein the clamping space is located radially outward of the winding space, and wherein the sensor housing is attachable to machinery to be monitored in a direction perpendicular to the single plane in which said at least one turn lies so that a portion of the connecting cable in the clamping space is clamped against the machinery as the sensor housing is attached to the machinery.
