Abstract
An integrated loadcell system, having a loadcell body having a leg connected to a spanning member, the leg having a transducer mounted thereto and a housing coupled to the loadcell body forming a wheatstone bridge circuit with the transducer; where an output of the wheatstone bridge circuit is indicative of a load experienced by the loadcell body.
Claims27
An integrated loadcell system, comprising:
- a loadcell body comprising a leg connected to a spanning member, said leg comprising a transducer mounted thereto;
- and
- a housing attached to said loadcell body forming a wheatstone bridge circuit with said transducer;
- whereby an output of said wheatstone bridge circuit is indicative of a load experienced by said loadcell body.
