Multi-axis force sensor capable of reducing influence on the other when measuring one of the axial force and torque
Abstract:
A multi-axis force sensor including a central portion, an outer ring portion, and at least one sensing portion disposed along an axial direction of an axis is provided. The sensing portion includes a first and a second elements connected with each other, and at least one first and at least one second strain gauges. A first end surface of the first element is connected to the central portion, and a second end surface of the second element is connected to the outer ring portion. A normal vector of the first end surface is parallel to the axis and the axis passes through a centroid of the first end surface. When the first end surface is subjected to an axial force, a first strain of a first sensing region of the first element in the axial direction is smaller than a second strain of a second sensing region of the second element in the axial direction. When the first end surface is subjected to a first torque with respect to the axis, a first twist angle of the first sensing region with respect to the axis is greater than a second twist angle of the second sensing region with respect to the axis.
