SENSOR DEVICE AND MODULAR UNIT THEREFOR
First Claim
1. A module unit comprising:
- a sensor device for actuating a moving part of a motor vehicle,a support element,wherein the sensor device is arranged on said support element and has at least one sensor to enable detection of an object in at least one detection area adjacent to the motor vehicle, such that the actuation of the moving part can itself be activated via said detection, andwherein the module unit is designed as a module which can be manually handled as a single device, such that the module unit can be attached to the motor vehicle.

Abstract
The invention relates to a modular unit (10) comprising a sensor device (11) for actuating a movable part (1, 33), in particular a flap (1) of a motor vehicle. Said unit comprises a support element (12), on which the sensor device (11) comprising at least one sensor (21, 22, 23) is situated, in order to detect (3) an object (4) in a detection region (5, 6, 40) that borders the motor vehicle (2), the detection operation (3) initiating the actuation of the movable part (1, 33). According to the invention, the modular unit (10) is designed as an individual module (10) that is easily fitted in such a way that said unit (10) can be fixed to the motor vehicle (2).
