Force measurement arrangement - contains force reduction arrangement reducing force acting on measurement transducer for reliable operation under large forces

摘要

The force measurement arrangement contains at least one electrical measurement transducer with press. dependent electrical properties. The transducer is arranged orthogonally wrt. the direction of action of the measurement force so that it is subject to an inner stress dependent on the forces being detected. A ring (11) reduces the transferred force so that the measurement transducer (12) is only subjected to part of the total force acting on the measurement arrangement. The entire force is transferred via a base body (10) forming a first region. A second region contains the force reduction arrangement. USE/ADVANTAGE - The arrangement is improved to enable reliable operation under very high press. or very large forces.Eg for vehicle drawbar coupling.
