Angular position measuring device

1. An angular position measurement device, comprising:

a cap;

a connection cable; and

a spring element arranged on the cap, the spring element including a tongue, the spring element configured to generate a force having a radial directional component with respect to the connection cable to press the connection cable against the cap by the tongue to fix the connection cable in position and to secure the connection cable with at least one of (a) form locking and (b) frictional engagement on the cap in a contact area of the cap.

2. The angular position measurement device according to claim 1 , wherein the spring element is formed of a bent steel sheet.

3. The angular position measurement device according to claim 1 , wherein the spring element is formed of a bent spring-steel sheet.

4. The angular position measurement device according to claim 1 , wherein the spring element includes a one-piece construction.

5. The angular position measurement device according to claim 1 , wherein the spring element includes retention claws.

6. The angular position measurement device according to claim 1 , wherein the cap includes an opening, the connection cable arranged through the opening, in a closed position of a cover, the cover arranged to cover the opening, the contact area and the spring element with respect to surroundings.

7. The angular position measurement device according to claim 1 , wherein the tongue includes a free end.

8. The angular position measurement device according to claim 1 , wherein the tongue is elastically deformable at least in a direction of the force.

9. The angular position measurement device according to claim 1 , wherein the spring element is fastened to the cap by a clamp connection.

10. The angular position measurement device according to claim 9 , wherein the cap is plastically deformed in a region of the clamp connection to fasten the spring element to the cap.

11. The angular position measurement device according to claim 1 , wherein the cap includes an opening, the connection cable arranged through the opening, in a closed position of a cover, the cover arranged to cover the opening and the contact area with respect to surroundings.

12. The angular position measurement device according to claim 11 , wherein in the closed position of the cover, the cover is arranged to generate a force to press the connection cable against the cap to relieve strain.

13. The angular position measurement device according to claim 12 , wherein the connection cable includes a fixation region, the spring element and the cover configured to generate the forces to produce the at least one of (a) the form locking and (b) the frictional engagement connection of the fixation region to the contact area of the cap.

14. An angular position measurement device, comprising:

cap means;

connecting cable means; and

spring means arranged on the cap means, the spring means including tongue means, the spring means for generating a force having a radial directional component with respect to the connecting cable means for pressing the connecting cable means against the cap means by the tongue means for fixing the connecting cable means in position and for securing the connecting cable means with at least one of (a) form locking and (b) frictional engagement on the cap means in a contact area of the cap means.

15. An angular position measurement device, comprising:

a cap;

a connection cable; and

a plate spring element arranged on the cap, the plate spring element configured to generate a force having a radial directional component with respect to the connection cable to press the connection cable against the cap to fix the connection cable in position and to secure the connection cable with at least one of (a) form locking and (b) frictional engagement on the cap in a contact area of the cap.
