LOAD SENSOR - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18613811 titled 'LOAD SENSOR
The abstract describes a load sensor comprising a base member, electrically-conductive elastic bodies, electrically-conductive members, and a dielectric body.
- The load sensor includes a base member as its foundation.
- Electrically-conductive elastic bodies are placed on the base member in a specific direction with gaps between them.
- Electrically-conductive members, with a linear shape, extend in another direction and intersect the elastic bodies.
- A dielectric body is positioned between the elastic bodies and the conductive members.
Potential Applications: - Industrial weighing scales - Force measurement devices - Automotive weight sensors
Problems Solved: - Accurate weight measurement - Enhanced sensor durability - Improved load distribution analysis
Benefits: - Precise load sensing - Long-lasting sensor performance - Reliable data collection
Commercial Applications: Title: Advanced Load Sensing Technology for Industrial Weighing Systems This technology can be utilized in various industries such as manufacturing, logistics, and transportation for efficient weight measurement and load monitoring.
Questions about Load Sensor Technology: 1. How does the placement of the electrically-conductive elastic bodies affect the sensor's performance?
The arrangement of the elastic bodies ensures accurate weight distribution and measurement.
2. What advantages does the dielectric body provide in the load sensor design?
The dielectric body helps prevent interference between the elastic bodies and conductive members, enhancing sensor accuracy.
Original Abstract Submitted
A load sensor includes: a base member; a plurality of electrically-conductive elastic bodies disposed on an upper face of the base member and arranged in a first direction with a predetermined gap therebetween; a plurality of electrically-conductive members each having a linear shape and extending in a second direction, the plurality of electrically-conductive members crossing the plurality of electrically-conductive elastic bodies; and a dielectric body disposed between the electrically-conductive elastic body and the electrically-conductive member.
