Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2005090904A1] The invention relates to a measuring device (7) for measuring changes in the position of the edge (5a) of a body of a component (1, 3). Said measuring device contains a sensor (9) which reacts to the changes, a light source (8), a measuring edge (5) fixed in relation to the edge (5a) of the body, and a light (6) emitted from the light source (8). From the change in position, information about the deformation caused by a force F (for example, in the case of bearings) can be obtained, a weight or an imbalance can be determined, and joints and press fits can be monitored. The measurement is carried out by reflection or transmission, preferably using optical waveguides.
