Abstract: An assembly includes at least three strain gauges and is attached to an elastic transmission element of a strain wave gearing. The assembly is designed to measure a torque acting on the elastic transmission element. Output signals from each of the strain gauges are measured. The output signal of one of the strain gauges is predicted from the measured output signals of the other strain gauges. An error message is output based on the predicted output signal deviating from the respective measured output signal by more than a predetermined tolerance.

Abstract: A magnetic field component in a Z direction is guided by a magnetic field guide layer and applied to a magnetic sensor in an X direction that is the same as a sensitivity axis direction thereof, and a detection output is obtained. A bridge circuit is formed with a plurality of magnetic sensors and configured such that an output is not provided for a magnetic field component in the X direction. However, when an external magnetic field in the X direction is drawn to the magnetic field guide layer, variation of sensitivity for the X direction may occur. Thus, soft magnetic characteristics of a first portion of the magnetic field guide layer are deteriorated to decrease the magnetic permeability of the first portion.
