Torque sensor for IC engine, pump etc. has coupling unit with coaxial reinforcement ring of larger thickness than hollow measuring shaft

摘要

The sensor has a measurement shaft formed from a hollow shaft segment. A flange (3) is provided as coupling units at each end of the measuring shaft, extending coaxially w.r.t. the measuring shaft. The flange has a weakening structure or reinforcement ring (8), whose thickness is larger than that of the measuring shaft (2) and which adjoins a hub (6).
