摘要: In one aspect, a transducer body includes a support having clevis halves. The sensor body includes a generally rigid peripheral member disposed about a spaced-apart central hub joined to each of the clevis halves. At least three flexure components couple the peripheral member to the hub. The flexure components are spaced-apart from each other at generally equal angle intervals about the hub; the sensor body further including a flexure assembly for some flexure components joining the flexure component to at least one of the hub and the peripheral member, the flexure assembly being compliant for forces in a radial direction from the hub to the peripheral member. Each flexure assembly is configured such that forces transferred concentrate strain at a midpoint along the length of each corresponding flexure component.

摘要: In one aspect, a transducer body, includes a support including a pair of clevis halves; and a sensor body coupled to each of the clevis halves. 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, where at least three flexure components couple the peripheral member to the central hub, and where the flexure components are spaced-apart from each other at generally equal angle intervals about the central hub. A biasing assembly connected between the support and the sensor body is configured to provide a bias force between the sensor body and the support.

摘要: In one aspect, a platform balance includes a frame support, and at least three spaced-apart transducer bodies coupled to the frame support. Each transducer body includes a support having clevis halves. The sensor body includes a generally rigid peripheral member disposed about a spaced-apart central hub joined to each of the clevis halves. At least three flexure components couple the peripheral member to the hub. The flexure components are spaced-apart from each other at generally equal angle intervals about the hub; the sensor body further including a flexure assembly for some flexure components joining the flexure component to at least one of the hub and the peripheral member, the flexure assembly being compliant for forces in a radial direction from the hub to the peripheral member. Each flexure assembly is configured such that forces transferred concentrate strain at a midpoint along the length of each corresponding flexure component.
摘要翻译: 在一个方面,平台平衡包括框架支撑件,以及耦合到框架支撑件的至少三个间隔开的换能器主体。 每个换能器本体包括具有U形夹半部的支撑件。 传感器主体包括大致刚性的外围构件,该外围构件围绕连接到每个U形夹半部的间隔开的中心毂设置。 至少三个弯曲部件将外围部件连接到轮毂。 弯曲部件围绕毂以大致相等的角度间隔彼此间隔开; 所述传感器主体还包括挠曲组件,所述弯曲组件用于将所述挠曲部件接合到所述轮毂和所述周边部件中的至少一个的一些弯曲部件,所述挠曲组件沿径向从所述轮毂到所述周边部件的力是顺从的。 每个弯曲组件被构造成使得转移的力集中在沿着每个对应的弯曲部件的长度的中点处应变。
