  • Fixing element, use of a sensor integrated in the fixing element and method for detecting the heat flow inside mechanical elements
    Patent number: 10948358
    Abstract: A fixing element, a use of a sensitive element to detect a flow of heat on the inside of mechanical organs; wherein the fixing element, in particular a screw or a stud, has a body and a sensitive element, which is designed to detect a difference of temperature between a first and a second area of the body of the fixing element, so as to determine, as a function of said difference of temperature, a flow of heat that flows through the fixing element and the mechanical organ where it is installed.
