Abstract: A sensor assembly includes a housing and a plurality of lenses. The lenses are connected with a lens carrier by a plurality of releasable connector elements. A circuit board is disposed on the lens carrier. The circuit board has a black coating. A connector assembly connects the circuit board with an electrical conductor. The connector assembly includes a body portion and a flange portion. The flange portion engages a recess in the sensor housing to hold the body portion of the connector assembly against axial movement relative to the sensor housing. A retainer extends from a cover portion of the sensor housing into engagement with the flange portion of a connector assembly to hold the flange portion against rotation to thereby block unauthorized access to the interior of the sensor housing. A light detector is movable relative to a light source to enable the distance from the light source to a location from which reflected light is received by the detector to be adjusted.

Abstract translation: 传感器组件包括壳体和多个透镜。 透镜通过多个可释放的连接器元件与透镜载体连接。 电路板设置在透镜载体上。 电路板有黑色涂层。 连接器组件将电路板与电导体连接。 连接器组件包括主体部分和凸缘部分。 凸缘部分接合传感器外壳中的凹部，以保持连接器组件的本体部分相对于传感器壳体的轴向移动。 保持器从传感器壳体的盖部分延伸到与连接器组件的凸缘部分接合以保持凸缘部分不旋转，从而阻止未经授权的进入传感器壳体的内部。 光检测器相对于光源是可移动的，以使能够从被检测器接收被反射光的位置被调整。
