Abstract

Strain gauge intended to correct parasitic effects due to the creep (plastic flow) of the sensors, characterised in that it includes loops whose widths are graduated (stepped) and several output points. Strain gauge for the production of sensors used in weighing devices.

Description

"Jauge de contrainte à sorties multiples"
La présente invention a pour objet une jauge de contrainte destinée à corriger les effets parasites dûs au fluage des capteurs utilisés généralement, mais non exclusivement, dans les dispositifs de pesée. En effet, le fluage est un des paramètres à maîtriser dans l'utilisation d'une jauge de contrainte. Les capteurs sont généralement réalisés sous forme de résistances en trames pelliculaires gravées sur un substrat, de manière connue. On donne à ces résistances des formes variées afin d'obtenir un produit fini proche de la perfection. Notamment on forme des résistances en disposant des brins en zig zag avec des boucles aux extrémités. La variation de la hauteur de Ia boucle permet un glissement des brins dans le temps plus ou moins grand.Lorsque l'on veut obtenir un fluage proche de zéro, ont doit déterminer la hauteur de boucle adéquate. Ceci est obtenu par maints essais, nécessitant chaque fois le remplacement des jauges par des jauges nouvelles.
"Multiple output strain gauge"
The present invention relates to a strain gauge intended to correct the parasitic effects due to creep of the sensors generally, but not exclusively, used in weighing devices. Indeed, creep is one of the parameters to be controlled in the use of a strain gauge. The sensors are generally produced in the form of resistances in film frames etched on a substrate, in a known manner. These resistances are given various forms in order to obtain a finished product close to perfection. In particular, resistances are formed by arranging zig zag strands with loops at the ends. The variation of the height of the loop allows a sliding of the strands in the more or less large time. When one wants to obtain a creep close to zero, one must determine the adequate height of loop. This is obtained by many tests, each time requiring the replacement of the gauges with new ones.

La présente invention a pour objet de remédier à ces inconvénients et propose des jauges de contrainte faciles à étalonner. The object of the present invention is to remedy these drawbacks and proposes strain gauges which are easy to calibrate.

Les jauges de contrainte, selon l'invention sont caractérisées en ce qu'elles comportent des boucles dont les hauteurs sont échelonnées et plusieurs points de sortie. The strain gauges according to the invention are characterized in that they include loops whose heights are staggered and several exit points.

L'invention sera mieux comprise à la lecture de la description qui suit d'une réalisation préférée et à l'examen du dessin annexé sur lequel on a représenté, en plan, une jauge, dont la configuration montrée, à titre d'exemple, peut être différente sans pour autant sortir du cadre de la présente invention. The invention will be better understood on reading the following description of a preferred embodiment and on examining the appended drawing in which there is shown, in plan, a gauge, the configuration of which is shown, by way of example, may be different without departing from the scope of the present invention.

La jauge représentée qui peut être fabriquée par tout moyen connu est constituée par des brins (1) disposés en zig-zag, reliés entr'eux par des boucles (2) ou plages, de largeur beaucoup plus grande. Les brins (1) sont dans l'exemple représenté, répartis en trois section 10-20-30.  The gauge shown which can be manufactured by any known means is constituted by strands (1) arranged in a zig-zag, connected between them by loops (2) or pads, of much greater width. The strands (1) are in the example shown, divided into three sections 10-20-30.

Chaque section se trouve entre deux sorties AB-BC-CD. Par ailleurs, les boucles (2) de chaque section ont une hauteur double H par rapport à celle de la section précédente. La jauge selon l'invention, comporte donc quatre sorties A.B.C.D et trois hauteurs différentes de boucles, cette hauteur doubIant entre chaque sortie. Cette réalisation permet une utilisation de la jauge en deux modes différents, chaque mode permettant trois combinaisons à savoir : (A-B) (B-C) (C-D) ou (A-C) (B-D) Pour (A-D) I1 faut relier B à C ; dans ce dernier cas, la résistance de la jauge aura doublé sa valeur otmique. Cet exemple n'est pas limitatif en ce qui concerne le nombre de sorties et la hauteur des boucles (2) ; la hauteur des boucles (2) peut être différente à chaque extrémité d'une section de brins afin d'obtenir une configuration disymétrique.Each section is located between two AB-BC-CD outputs. Furthermore, the loops (2) of each section have a height double H compared to that of the previous section. The gauge according to the invention therefore comprises four outputs A.B.C.D and three different heights of loops, this height doubling between each output. This embodiment allows the gauge to be used in two different modes, each mode allowing three combinations, namely: (A-B) (B-C) (C-D) or (A-C) (B-D) For (A-D) I1 must connect B to C; in the latter case, the resistance of the gauge will have doubled its otmic value. This example is not limiting as regards the number of outlets and the height of the loops (2); the height of the loops (2) can be different at each end of a section of strands in order to obtain an asymmetrical configuration.

Généralement, on colle quatre jauges (Pont de WHEATSTONE) sur un corps d'épreuve, ce qui permet de multiplier d'autant les combinaisons. Generally, one sticks four gauges (WHEATSTONE Bridge) on a test body, which allows to multiply all the combinations.

L'invention fait apparaître clairement ltéconomie obtenue au niveau de la mise au point d'un capteur. The invention clearly shows the economy obtained in the development of a sensor.

Lors d'essais, les mesures faites sur les capteurs à différentes températures, par exemple - 10 C et + 40 C, on a pu constater que le fluage était différent. During tests, the measurements made on the sensors at different temperatures, for example - 10 C and + 40 C, we could see that the creep was different.

La jauge selon l'invention, permet de réduire les écarts aux températures extrêmes en se recentrant, permettant ainsi de rentrer dans les tolérances que l'on s'est fixées. The gauge according to the invention makes it possible to reduce the deviations from extreme temperatures by refocusing, thus making it possible to enter the tolerances that have been set.

En outre, si lton utilise ce type de jauge sur les capteurs en série, il est toujours possible de faire un ajustement précis du fluage, même si certains paramètres ont bougé au moment du collage de la jauge sur le corps d'épreuve.  In addition, if you use this type of gauge on the sensors in series, it is always possible to make a precise adjustment of the creep, even if certain parameters changed when the gauge was stuck on the test body.
