FORCE PICKUP Russian patent published in 1994 - IPC

FIELD: mechanical engineering. SUBSTANCE: pickup has resilient member in form of cylindrical body of rotation, provided with resistance strain gauges, and force-introducing members, made in form of prism-shaped flat rings, which are coincided along the internal contour by resilient member; body of rotation and force-introducing members are made together. Diametrically disposed grooves are made in resilient member, which form sectors, where resistance strain gauges are disposed; the gauges are brought into bridge circuit. EFFECT: improved reliability. 2 cl, 4 dwg
