A force sensor system includes a substrate (102), a cover, a sensor (106), and a spherical force transfer element. The cover is coupled to the substrate, and has an inner surface, an outer surface, an opening extending between the inner and outer surfaces, and a wall structure extending from the inner surface that defines a sensor cavity between the inner surface and the substrate. The sensor (106) is mounted on the substrate (102), is disposed within the sensor cavity, and is configured to generate a sensor (106) signal representative of a force supplied to the sensor (106). The spherical force transfer element is disposed partially within the sensor cavity, is movable relative to the cover, extends from the opening in the cover, and engages the sensor (106). The spherical force transfer element is adapted to receive an input force and is configured, upon receipt of the input force, to transfer the input force to the sensor. |
