ABSTRACT:
A force transmission element for force or moment measuring devices includes a block of essentially incompressible elastomeric material for transmission of forces to at least one force or pressure sensor arranged within said block or in close contact with the elastomeric material, wherein said block is closely surrounded by an enclosure deformable in axial force measuring direction, but essentially not expandable in cross section essentially perpendicular thereto. Such force transmission elements may be used in force transmission devices and may be manufactured by at least partially casting the enclosure in the elastomeric material with the enclosure, if desired, serving as a mold.
