  • Capacitive force sensor
    Patent number: 6079282
    Abstract: A force sensor, such as it can be used in a scale, consists of two glass supports with springs arranged there between. An electrode is arranged on each glass support and the capacity between the electrodes is measured. The springs are silicon single crystals, which avoids fatigue and stress and therefore provides a drift-free sensor.
