STRAIN-GAUGE SENSOR FOR MEASURING FORCES

摘要

ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSUREThe sensor is formed of a hollow profile (1)of rectangular cross-section, which has two symmetricaltransverse notches (2, 3) and two other symmetricaltransverse notches (4, 5) at a distance from the first.These notches pass through the thickness of the largeside walls (6) of the profile and, in the case of eachpair (2, 3 and 4, 5), leave intact but mechanicallyweakened regions (8) between them, to which straingauges (9) are fixed.(Figures 1 and 2)
