Abstract
Disclosed is an axial force transducer comprising a deformable element () which forms a measuring spring and is rotationally symmetrical to the force inducing axis as well as strain gauges () that are arranged in pairs in areas extending in opposite directions and are connected so as to form an electrical resistance bridge. The deformable element () is provided with a central location hole () which extends radially under the effect of an axial force and whose edge () is connected to a deformable disk () via an annular rib (), said deformable disk () being disposed at an axial distance from the location hole (). The edge () of the deformable disk () radially protrudes from the annular rib (). The strain gauges () are applied to the face of the deformable disk () in pairs, inside and outside the diameter of the annular rib ().
