The method has the advantages of high precision and sensitivity, low cost and the like.
The photoelectric sensor fixes two gratings with the same number of holes on the elastic beam, and fixes the photoelectric element and the fixed light source on two sides of the grating, when the elastic beam is not acted by force, the light and shade stripes of the two gratings are staggered to shield the light path completely. When force is applied, the cross sections of the two gratings generate relative rotation angles, the light and dark stripes are partially overlapped, and partial light penetrates through the gratings to irradiate the photosensitive element to output an electric signal. The magnitude of the applied force can be measured by measuring the output electrical signal. The method has the advantages of real-time monitoring and quick response; the defects are complex structure, difficult static calibration, poorer reliability and poor anti-interference capability.
The capacitive force sensor is characterized in that two electrodes are arranged on an elastic body, when the elastic body is stressed, the area or the distance between the two electrodes can be changed, and the capacitance can be changed at the moment. The magnitude of the force is obtained by detecting the change in capacitance.
The magnetic elastic force sensor is characterized in that magnetostrictive materials are adhered to an elastic beam, stress strain of the elastic beam can cause the magnetostrictive materials adhered to the elastic beam to generate stress strain after force is applied to the elastic beam, the magnetic conductivity of the magnetostrictive materials can be changed when the magnetostrictive materials are stressed due to the reverse magnetostrictive effect, and the force is obtained by detecting the change of the magnetic conductivity of the magnetostrictive materials.
The existing magnetic elastic force sensors are generally classified into bypass type and sleeve type according to the measurement mode. In the bypass mode, a U-shaped magnet is usually arranged beside a magnetostrictive material, and an excitation and detection winding is wound on the U-shaped magnet to close a system into a complete magnetic circuit; the sleeve type is generally that the magnetostrictive material is completely wrapped by two sleeves, the excitation winding is on the outermost layer, and the detection winding is arranged in the excitation winding, so that magnetic lines of force completely cover the magnetostrictive material.

The fixed block 21 may be disposed at any position between the two sliders 22. In the present embodiment, two adjacent fixing blocks 21 are symmetrically disposed with respect to the stress beam 3. The fixed blocks 21 and the floating blocks 22 are connected through floating beams 24, and each fixed block 21 is provided with a second sensor mounting hole 23. The first sensor mounting hole 14 and the second sensor mounting hole 23 are used to mount the sensor to the workpiece to be measured.

The working principle is as follows:
when the two-dimensional force sensor based on the inverse magnetostriction effect is used, stress strain can be caused on a stress beam 3 of the sensor when force is input, the magnetic flux of the sensor can be changed in an alternating magnetic field generated by an exciting coil 4 according to the inverse magnetostriction effect of a magnetostriction material, and the change of the magnetic flux detected by a detection coil 5 is converted into an electrical signal to represent the change of the stress.
The magneto-elastic effect is a unique physical property of ferromagnetic materials, which indicates that the permeability of parameters inside it changes under the influence of external forces. When an elastic shaft made of ferromagnetic material is under the action of a stable external excitation field and is influenced by external force, the change of the magnetization state of the material of the elastic shaft can be regarded as the result of the change of magnetic permeability. Under the action of torque or stress, the change of the internal magnetic domain structure of the magnetic material is the reason for influencing the change of the internal magnetization state of the material. Therefore, the magneto-elastic effect of the ferromagnetic material can be used for representing the stress state change of the ferromagnetic material by measuring the change of the magnetization intensity of the ferromagnetic material when the ferromagnetic material is loaded with torque, so that the problem of measuring the torque is converted into the problem of measuring the magnetization intensity of the material. In addition, the positive or negative of the magnetostriction coefficient, which is a physical quantity, affects the rotation direction of the magnetic domain. The change in magnetization state of the elastic axis material is discussed herein in terms of a change in magnetic permeability and a change in magnetic induction. In fact, the change in magnetization is a change in magnetic induction, so we can analyze the applied external force from the macroscopic change in magnetic induction.
It will be appreciated that the outer flange 2 is not limited to being rectangular and in other embodiments it may be circular or the like.
It is understood that in other embodiments, only one stress beam 3 in the same direction is provided with the excitation coil 4 and the detection coil 5, and the measurement result can be obtained.
Although the invention has been described in detail above with reference to specific embodiments, it will be apparent to one skilled in the art that modifications and improvements can be made based on the invention. Accordingly, such modifications and improvements are intended to be within the scope of the invention as claimed.
