Title:
MULTI COMPONENT FORCE SENSOR
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JPH01156632
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
PURPOSE:To obtain a miniaturized multi component force sensor having a structure which is not subjected to interference as a mechanical structure by providing two pieces of cross-shaped elastic beams interposing an intermediate connecting member and providing two pieces of distortion detecting parts in the longitudinal directions of the elastic beams, respectively. CONSTITUTION:Between the upper connecting member 1 and the lower connecting member 4a connected to two rigid bodies being measuring objects, two pieces of cross-shaped elastic beams 3, 4 are provided through an intermediate connecting member 2. In the longitudinal directions of both side faces of the cross of each elastic beam 3, 4, two pieces of respective distortion detectors 20-35 are attached. Subsequently, one end part of the cross of a first elastic beam 3 is coupled with the upper connecting member 1, and also, the other end part of the cross is coupled with the intermediate connecting member 2. Also, each end part of the cross of a second elastic beam 4 and the intermediate connecting member 2 are coupled so as to align the phase with the first elastic beam 3.
