A pin-type load-cell which uses shear-type strain gauges was developed to measure the tension of a wire in a winch. A finite element analysis was performed to determine the locations of the strain gauges. All of the shear-type strain gauges were attached onto parts that undergo regularly shear stress distributions. A Wheatstone bridge circuit was used to connect each of the gauges and to measure the strains. Linearity within the 5% error range was noted when testing the pin-type load-cell.

The restraint force is required for the accurate measurement and analysis to protect weldment from residual stress. Also, this residual stress caused by cracks in weldments is often observed in the weldments of large size nozzles or radial tanks after welding. This paper is preformed to evaluate the welding restraint forces using load cell with STS304 thin plate which is used as the pressure vessel steel in the industry field. As a result, as the welding currents are higher and the welding speeds are more slowly, the magnitude of restraint force in process of the flat plate welding shows to be more large.

스트레인 게이지를 이용한 응력측정 방법 및 응력 측정시의 오차 발생의 원인에 대해서 설명하 였고 현재 많이 사용되고있는 스트레인 게이지식 로드셀의 원리 및 구조에 대해서도 설명하였다. 스트레인 게이지를 이용하여 변형도를 측정할 경우 1% 이내의 정확도를 유지하는 것이 가능하나 측정된 변형도로부터 응력을 계산할 경우 재료상수들의 부정확성으로 인하여 5% 정도의 오차가 발생할 수 있다. 스트레인 게이지를 이용한 응력 측정값은 부착위치에서의 값이므로 구조물의 최대 응력을 측정하고자 할 경우 구조물의 응력 상태를 제대로 파악하지 못하면 큰 오차가 발 생할 수 잇다. 따라서 정확한 측정을 위해서는 정확한 게이지 작업 기술과 함께 하중에 대한 대상물의 거동을 파악하는 기술 습득이 요구된다. 스트레인 게이지식 로드셀을 직접 설계 및 제작하기 위해서는 용량, 정밀도, 설치 공간, 사용조건 등을 고려하여 감지부의 형상, 감지부의 재질, 스트레인 게이지의 종류, 부착 방법, 보상회로 구성방법, 보호 케이스의 부착 여부 등을 결정하여야 하고 제작이 완료된 후 힘 표준기 등으로 교정검사를 실시하여 사용하여야만 정확한 측정을 기대할 수 있다.

This paper describes the development of a precision 3-component load cell with plate beams which may be used for measuring forces Fx, Fy and moment Mz simultaneously in industry. We have derived equations to predict the bending strains on the surface of the beams under forces or moment. We have also determined the attachment location of strain gages of each sensor and fabricated 3-component load cell. To evaluate the rated strain and interference error of each sensor, we have carried out characteristic test of precision 3-component load cell. It reveals that the rated strain calculated from the derived equations are good agreement with the results from Finite Element Method analysis.

This paper described design method to minimize the crosstalk effect of multiaxis thrust measurement stand which can measure the thrust vector control performance of Solid Rocket Motor. This paper presents a theoretical solution for predicting the magnitude of crosstalk and calculates design sensitivity. The results indicate that the most important parameter of crosstalk is the displacement of flexure-loadcell-flexure assembly. And shape, dimension and mechanical properties of flexure and loadcell can also influence the magnitude of crosstalk.

In this paper, each driving motor for leg joints on a robot is controlled by estimating the direction of the legs measuring each joint angle and attitude angle of robot. We used quadruped working robot named TITAN-VIII in order to carry out this experimental study. 4 load cells are installed under the bottom of 4 legs to measure the pressed force on each leg while it's walking. The walking experiments of the robot were performed in 8 different conditions combined with duty factor, the length of a stride, the trajectory height of the foot and walking period of robot. The validity of attitude control for quadruped walking robot is evaluated by comparing the pressed force on a leg and the power consumption of joint driving motor. As a result, it was confirmed that the slip-condition of which the foot leave the ground late at the beginning of new period of the robot during walking process, which means the attitude control of the robot during walking process wasn't perfect only by measuring joint and attitude angle for estimating the direction of the foot.

This paper describes the design process of a six-component force/torque (F/T) sensor. The new six-component F/T sensor having leaf spring ends has been developed using a cross beam structure as the basic sensing element. Fundamental strain analysis of both ends fixed beam having a leaf spring structure is performed by finite element analysis. In order to obtain similar output sensing strains from the six component loads and minimize coupling strains, the optimal location of strain gages is determined and the strain gages are connected so that the bridge circuits with four strain gages would be balanced. Using leaf spring ends instead of rigid fixed ends, remarkable increment in output sensing strain can be achieved for two component forces. Several modifications in design result in a similar sensing strain of approximately $400\;{\mu}m/m$ for the six-component forces and moments, and a reduced coupling strain of $0\;{\mu}m/m$ between the forces and moments.

The intravenous injection monitoring system used by medical institutions was developed to remotely provide patients with the amount of intravenous injected and the termination point of the injection. In order to measure the amount of intravenous injection input, the weight or flow rate of the level going out from the inside to outside of the intravenous injection can be observed with a measuring sensor. The criteria for devices that apply herein are accuracy and vigilance. In addition, it is compact and should be easy to use when installing intravenous injection on patients. In medical institutions, the accuracy of the measured values must be high, and economically inexpensive devices are required. In this study, low-cost small-weight-centered load cell sensors were applied, and algorithms were applied to reduce the artefact by external movement by converging with gyro sensors for accuracy of measurements. As a result, it was possible to reduce the error of measurement, thereby improving the accuracy of the intravenous injection monitoring measurement value.
