Helmut Grutzeck has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Joining element
    Patent number: 7777482
    Abstract: A joining element is proposed which, for force measurement, senses a relative motion between a magnet system and a magnet sensor apparatus. The magnet system is disposed with respect to the magnet sensor apparatus in such a way that a component of the magnetic field perpendicular to the relative motion is linearized.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: August 17, 2010
    Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbH
    Inventors: Michael Munz, Helmut Grutzeck, Johann Wehrmann, Conrad Haeussermann, Klaus Kasten, Uwe Schiller, Konrad Dirscherl
  • Connection element
    Patent number: 7559255
    Abstract: A connection element and a method for positioning a magnetic field sensor suite into the zero line of a magnetic field is provided, the measuring of the force being achieved by a displacement between a magnet and the magnetic field sensor suite. The magnetic field sensor suite is supported on a holder in such a way that the magnetic field sensor suite is achieved into the zero line of the magnetic field of the magnet.

  • Force measurement element
    Patent number: 7437943
    Abstract: A force measurement element measures an introduced force by means of a double flexural beam and a displacement sensor. The double flexural beam makes possible a double spring shape that makes possible an optimization with regard to elongation distribution.

  • Dynamometer Element
    Publication number: 20080202225
    Abstract: A dynamometer element including a bolt on which a diaphragm is mounted, the diaphragm being surrounded by a sleeve, to which a force component to be measured is applied perpendicularly to the longitudinal direction of the bolt, the sleeve being spaced from the bolt in such a way that the diaphragm is strained as a function of the force component, a sensor system for measuring the strain being provided on the diaphragm.

  • Sensor for measuring pressure in a sealed volume
    Patent number: 7073400
    Abstract: A sensor for measuring a force is provided, which sensor includes a first sealed volume, a second sealed volume, a pressure diaphragm and a force diaphragm. The pressure diaphragm has a first side and a second side, with a pressure of the first sealed volume acting on the first side, and a pressure of the second sealed volume acting on the second side. The force diaphragm is exposed to a force, and the pressure of the first volume is dependent on the force acting on the force diaphragm.
