Abstract
A magnetically mountable device for sensing deformation from loadings on machine members. The device includes a strain sensing transducer, brackets between which the transducer is supported, and magnetic bracket mounts which permit the transducer to be easily mounted on the machine member by virtue of magnetic attraction forces between the mounts and the force carrying member and yet be readily repositionable on the member so as to facilitate location of points of maximum stress concentrations during a working cycle of the machine.
