Two-axis sensor body for a load transducer

A transducer body, comprising:

• a support comprising a pair of clevis halves;
• and a sensor body coupled to each of the clevis halves, wherein the sensor body is disposed between the clevis halves and configured to deflect with forces along two orthogonal axes, wherein the sensor body includes a 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 angular intervals about the central hub;
• the sensor body further including a flexure assembly for each of said at least three flexure components joining its flexure component to at least one of the central hub and the peripheral member, the flexure assembly being compliant for forces in a radial direction from the central hub through the flexure component and to the peripheral member, wherein each of at least two flexure assemblies comprises a first connecting web orthogonal to its flexure component, and the first connecting web is disposed to be approximately in line with a midpoint along a longitudinal length of its corresponding flexure component, wherein forces transferred between the central hub and the peripheral member concentrate strain at the midpoint of each corresponding flexure component configured for strain measurement, and wherein the at least two flexure assemblies and the corresponding flexure component midpoint are collinear.
