Abstract

See full text

A capacitive anti-pinch means with a first electrode (2) and a second electrode (3), wherein the first electrode (2) and the second electrode (3) form the electrodes of one sensor, is, as regards a measurement which is independent of a ground potential (M1), characterized in that the first electrode (2) can be fed a first potential (U.sub.ref+), in that the second electrode (3) can be fed a second potential (U.sub.ref-), wherein the second potential (U.sub.ref-) is different from the first potential (U.sub.ref+), and in that said means are equipped with evaluation electronics (5) which determine the difference between the first potential (U.sub.ref+) and the second potential (U.sub.ref-) and determine the capacitance (C.sub.Sensor) of the sensor from said difference. A corresponding method for operating the anti-pinch means (1) is disclosed.
