Abstract
A dynamometer () has a pickup element (), in which a permanent magnet () and a sensor () are disposed. At least the permanent magnet () is surrounded by ferromagnetic material, and the spacing of the permanent magnet () from the ferromagnetic material changes upon imposition of a force (F) upon the pickup element (). This change in the spacing causes a change in the field intensity of the permanent magnet (), which is detected by means of the sensor () and converted into a corresponding signal.
