ABSTRACT FORCE TRANSDUCER A force transducer comprises a block of material which is formed with a generally U-shaped or pi-shaped throughaperture and a generally T-shaped throughaperture in such a way as to form two loading members coupled together by first flexure elements which constrain the loading members to move in a predetermined direction under load and a second pair of flexure elements united by a connecting portion. In use one loading member is connected to a fixture and the other is connected to a force receiver so that when one loading member is displaced relative to the other in said predetermined direction, the second flexure strips undergo a lateral deflection which is a measure of the applied force. This arrangement is particularly suitable for use with strain gauges as the flexures are subjected to a substantially uniform stress along their lengths when loaded.
