ABSTRACT:
An isometric force-measuring device is comprised of first and second opposed force-bearing surfaces. An incompressible, nonfluid material is positioned between the first and second surfaces. The material is capable of building up pressure in response to the application of force to the force-bearing surfaces. A pressure transducer is responsive to the pressure stored in the material for producing an output signal representative of the force.
