Abstract
A measuring device for measuring a mass flow rate of a material flow having a rotatably mounted, bladed measurement wheel for deflecting the material flow, a drive shaft for driving the measurement wheel, an output shaft rigidly connected to the measurement wheel, a bearing sleeve, surrounding at least part of the output shaft, for the rotatable mounting of the output shaft, a force-measuring apparatus, and a gearbox which has a first gearbox element and a second gearbox element, and an intermediate element for transmitting a torque from the first gearbox element to the second gearbox element. The measuring device has a rocker which is rigidly connected to the bearing sleeve and on which the intermediate element of the gearbox is mounted. The force-measuring apparatus is connected to the rocker, so that a force transmitted to the rocker can be measured by the force-measuring apparatus.
