摘要 |
<p>The invention is a load cell (20) for the measurement of force, independent of displacement, created by means such as weight, acceleration, pressure, and the like. The load cell (20) has a beam structure with beams positioned parallel to each other in at least one plane. Generally, these parallel beams (42, 45) are attached to a stationary base (40) and have sensing means (52) attached between the two beams (42, 45). In operation, deflection of one beam creates a response in the sensing means due to the relative action or deflection in the second beam.</p> |
