Patent number: 9816884Abstract: For measuring tensile and/or compressive loads force measuring systems are provided for measuring a tensile and/or compressive load of a structure have a first force measuring sensor assigned to the structure, and a second force measuring sensor assigned to the structure. To provide a force measuring system that enables high measuring accuracy, the first and the second force measuring sensor differ in such a way, that the first force measuring sensor is designed to measure a nominal load range, and the second force measuring sensor is designed to measure a sub-range of the nominal load range.Type: GrantFiled: April 1, 2016Date of Patent: November 14, 2017Assignee: tecsis GmbHInventors: Alexander Gerber, Daniel Niedballa, Oliver Jost

Patent number: 9759625Abstract: A pressure overload protector for a sensor includes a pressure-filled channel system fillable with fluid or gas, a first overload stop seated in an open position, a first diaphragm at the unseated end of the first overload stop, a second overload stop seated in an open position, a second diaphragm at the unseated end of the second overload stop, a sensor connected to a fluid channel, and a third and fourth overload stop connected by channels to the fluid channel of the sensor and terminating at a fluid exit. The overload protector provides bidirectional over and under pressure protection to the sensor.Type: GrantFiled: September 18, 2015Date of Patent: September 12, 2017Assignee: Tecsis GmbHInventors: Robert Turner, Pavel Gvantmakher, Reinhold Ost, Bruce Yohr, Mark Jones

Patent number: 8881597Abstract: A measuring device is described which has a metal body deformable in accordance with a value to be measured. A sensor element having a metal carrier and ohmic resistors formed thereon in metal thin-film technique is connected to the metal body by welding and generates a signal adapted to be electrically evaluated which corresponds to the deformation of the metal body. The weld for connecting the metal body and the sensor element completely encloses the metal carrier at its circumference. The metal body has, at the welded connection with the metal carrier, a material thickness t which is completely penetrated by the weld. The value to be measured by the measuring device comprises force, pressure, temperature, torque or combinations thereof.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2009Date of Patent: November 11, 2014Assignee: Tecsis GmbHInventors: Oliver Jost, Marko Appel, Joachim Hose Von Wolframsdorff

Patent number: 7832290Abstract: Disclosed is an axial force transducer comprising a deformable element (1) which forms a measuring spring and is rotationally symmetrical to the force inducing axis as well as strain gauges (15, 18) that are arranged in pairs in areas extending in opposite directions and are connected so as to form an electrical resistance bridge. The deformable element (1) is provided with a central location hole (8) which extends radially under the effect of an axial force and whose edge (12) is connected to a deformable disk (13) via an annular rib (10), said deformable disk (13) being disposed at an axial distance from the location hole (8). The edge (14) of the deformable disk (13) radially protrudes from the annular rib (10). The strain gauges (15, 18) are applied to the face of the deformable disk (13) in pairs, inside and outside the diameter of the annular rib (10).Type: GrantFiled: April 30, 2007Date of Patent: November 16, 2010Assignee: Tecsis GmbHInventors: Joachim Hose-Von Wolfframsdorff, Oliver Jost
