  • Structural load cell cases for encasing sensors in robotic systems
    Patent number: 11338447
    Abstract: A structural load cell case for a pick and place robotic system that prevents torsion, bending, and overloading from damaging sensors is disclosed. The structural load cell case includes a base, an inner tube that houses the load cell, and a roller sleeve outside the inner tube. The base is adapted to connect to a load and includes a compression spring interfaced with a first part of the load cell. The roller sleeve includes a plurality of roller bearings in contact with the inner tube. The inner tube is free to slide along an axis of the roller sleeve up to pre-determined limits, but is constrained from rotating or translating in directions other than the axis of the roller sleeve.
