Zusammenfassung:A wheel angle sensor assembly (1) for measuring a relative rotation between a front axle (3) of a vehicle with respect to a knuckle (2) to be coupled to a wheel of the vehicle, the wheel angle sensor assembly (1) comprising a steering pin (8) to be coupled via a mechanical shape coupling (13) with a first member (2, 3) between the front axle (3) and the knuckle (2), an angle sensor (7) to be coupled with a second member (2, 3) defined by the other one of the front axle (3) and the knuckle (2), and a resilient element (16) of deformable material, in which one between the steering pin (8) and the first member (2, 3) defines a groove (14) for seating the resilient element (16) and in which the mechanical shape coupling (13) is realized within the groove (14) by interference between the resilient element (16) seated in the groove (14) and a protrusion (15) carried by the other one between the steering pin (8) and the first member (2, 3) and inserted in a portion (17) of the groove (14) left free by the resilient element (16).
