Abstract
The opposite ends of a metal bar placed between a weighing platform and a base plate are rigidly fixed respectively to the platform and base plate. The metal bar carries flexure-sensitive strain gages and torsion-sensitive strain gages for cancelling the torsional stresses detected by the gages. Two pairs of flexure-sensitive strain gages are mounted on one face of the bar and aligned along the bar axis X--X'. The gages of each pair are connected in opposition of sign in a Wheatstone bridge circuit and an electric signal which is proportional to the force applied on the weighing platform is measured at the bridge terminals.
