ELASTIC MEMBER OF DEVICE FOR MEASUREMENT OF RADIAL PRESSURE Russian patent published in 2007 - IPC G01L1/22 

FIELD: mechanical engineering; measuring technique.

SUBSTANCE: device can be used for measurement of forces created by pressure of elastic items, for example, of piston rings against wall of cylinder. There are slots along generating lines of body of rotation in elastic member. Slots have minimal widths and links with transistors, which increase number of links separating them. Slots are made in edge of part of body of rotation; links have to be cantilever beams. Slots are made in edge part of variable cross-section body of rotation and links have to be L-shaped cantilever beams. Projections of radial pressures are reproduced with higher truth. Radial pressure can be measured which pressures are created by piston ring against surface of cylinder.

EFFECT: improved precision of measurement; improved truth of results; higher wear resistance; prolonged service life of elastic members.
