Title:
FORCE SENSOR AND FORCE SENSING DEVICE, FORCE SENSING SYSTEM, AND FORCE SENSING METHOD USING SAME
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2017/064847
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The force sensor according to the present invention is provided with sensing parts, first and second structures disposed so that the sensing parts are interposed therebetween in a sensing direction, and an elastic body provided between external peripheral edges of the first and second structures and joined to the external peripheral edges of the first and second structures. The sensing parts have a core comprising a magnetic body, and a coil for generating a magnetic flux through the core. The elastic body comprises a material having a lower elastic modulus than the core. The sensing parts are configured so as to receive a load applied in the sensing direction from the first structure and the second structure. This force sensor can be made thin.
