ABSTRACT:
A vibrating beam force-frequency transducer has a flat elongate blade designed to be interposed between two elements for applying a longitudinal force to the blade. The middle portion of the blade constitutes two lateral beams which are separated by a gap and which are interconnected by terminal portions of the blade. The beams carry electrodes for setting the beams into vibration in the plane of the major faces of the blade and for measuring the frequency of vibration. The terminal portions have extensions parallel to the beams and directed towards the middle of the blade in the longitudinal direction. The extensions are arranged for connecting them to the elements in zones that are closer together than are the terminal portions.
