Abstract
A force/moment sensor for measurement of three orthogonal forces and three orthogonal moments, comprises an inner holding element which is surrounded by an outer holding element. The two holding elements are connected to each other by deformation elements. For each deformation element, at least one deformation transducer is provided. The force/moment sensor is preferably monolithic, and the deformation transducers, formed as strain gauges, are preferably arranged in one plane or in two preferably parallel planes.
Claims13
A force/moment sensor for measurement of preferably three forces and three moments, comprising
- an inner holding element surrounded by an outer holding element,
- a plurality of deformation elements connecting the holding elements to each other, and
- deformation transducers connected to the deformation elements, said deformation transducers being connectable via lines to an evaluation unit,
- wherein the deformation transducers being arranged exclusively on a top and/or bottom side of the deformation elements.
