Abstract
An elastic transmission element is part of a strain wave gear. Such strain wave gears are also referred to as Harmonic Drives. The elastic transmission element is also referred to as a flexspline and has an outer toothing (). The elastic transmission element is equipped with at least one strain gauge () for measuring a mechanical strain on the elastic transmission element. The one strain gauge () or the plurality of strain gauges () extends at least as a whole about a circumference of a lateral surface or an axial lateral face of the elastic transmission element.
