DEVICE FOR MEASURING AND/OR REGISTERING MECHANICAL FORCES, AND A METHOD OF MANUFACTURING A MEASURING BODY FOR USE IN THE DEVICE

摘要

The invention relates to a device for measuring and/or registering mechanical forces (F) with the aid of a measuring body (1) which can be influenced by the force to be measured. The measuring body is configured with a web (11) in which transverse forces and/or shear stresses occurrent in the web and dependent on the value of the force, can be evaluated with the aid of a magnetizing winding (3) and a sensing winding (4). The web (11) has a limited extension in relation to the measuring body (1) and has a limited thickness (t) such that evaluation of occurrent forces and/or stresses in accordance with magnetoelastic principles will take place substantially in or in the immediate vicinity of a neutral plane (23) located on the measuring body. The invention also relates to a method for the manufacture of such a measuring body.
