BRAKING FORCE DETECTION DEVICE, AND BRAKING FORCE DETECTION SYSTEM

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To make it possible to measure the braking force of a brake equipment without forming any plain surface for strain gauge adhesion.SOLUTION: A braking force detection device comprises: a braking force detection device member 19 having a strain gauge 18 adhering to the surface and having a chamfering part 19a formed on the face opposite to the face, to which said strain gauge 18 adheres; and a dimension adjustment member 20 for extending and contracting the braking force detection device member 19 in response to the change in the opposed face-to-face dimension of the detected part. The brake pads 1A and 1B are arranged inside and between the confronting faces of said detected part, in which the strain state is changed between the braking state and the non-braking state, thereby to detect the braking force of a brake equipment 100.
