Abstract
A measuring device for detecting stresses of a bearing arrangement. The stresses are measured based on elastic changes in shape. The inventive measuring device includes a light source, which is directed onto a light passage, and a light sensor. The dimensions of a portion of the light that penetrates the light passage and impinges the light sensor can be modified by elastically changing the shape of the light passage.
