Load transducer with lockup assembly

Abstract

A transducer body includes a support comprising a pair of clevis halves; a sensor body coupled to each of the clevis halves, wherein the sensor body is disposed between the clevis halves and includes a generally rigid peripheral member disposed about a spaced-apart central hub, the central hub being joined to each of the clevis halves with the peripheral member spaced apart from each clevis half, wherein at least three flexure components couple the peripheral member to the central hub, and wherein the flexure components are spaced-apart from each other at generally equal angle intervals about the central hub; and a lockup assembly configured to selectively inhibit movement of the sensor body relative to the clevis halves.
