Abstract:
A load detecting device for attachment to a structure under load comprises a carrier unit and a plurality of strain gages. The carrier unit comprises a first and a second mounting section arranged along a longitudinal axis and connected by a sensing section, wherein the plurality of strain gages are arranged at the sensing section of the carrier unit. The sensing section includes two connecting elements extending along the longitudinal axis between the first mounting section and the second mounting section, each of the connecting elements being curved and having a convex side, the convex sides of the two connecting elements facing each other.
Abstract:
A hanging scale for measuring the weight of a hanging load comprises a first attachment section comprising a first bearing and a second attachment section comprising a second bearing, the first bearing and the second bearing being aligned along a vertical axis during operation of the hanging scale; at least one longitudinal deflection measurement section which has a first end and a second end, the deflection measurement section being located between the first bearing and the second bearing and being oriented transversely with respect to said vertical axis; a first connecting section which at least partially extends laterally from the first attachment section with respect to said vertical axis, the first connecting section connecting the first bearing to the first end of the deflection measurement section; and a second connecting section which at least partially extends laterally from the second attachment section with respect to said vertical axis, the second connecting section connecting the second bearing to the second end of the deflection measurement section.
