PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a load detector of a bed excellent in load detection performance.SOLUTION: The load detector 1 is provided with: a substrate part 2 placed on a bed installation surface 15 a cantilever beam part 5 which is supported by the substrate part 2 nearly horizontally with the bed installation surface 15 from the above and which integrally has a placing board part 7 for placing a leg part of a bed on its tip and a distortion detection sensor 8 which detects the distortion of the beam part 5 and outputs a signal used for detecting a load applied on the leg of the bed. The beam part 5 is formed integrally with the substrate part 2, and the beam part 5 and the substrate part 2 are made of extruded material.COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT【課題】荷重検出性能に優れたベッドの荷重検出器を提供する。【解決手段】荷重検出器1は、ベッド設置面15上に載置される基板部2と、基板部2にベッド設置面15に対して上方に離間した状態に略水平状に支持され、先端部にベッドの脚部が載置される載置板部7が一体に形成された片持ち梁部5と、片持ち梁部5の歪みを検出し、ベッドの脚部に掛かる荷重の検出に用いられる信号を出力する歪み検出センサ8と、を備えている。片持ち梁部5が基板部2に一体に形成されるとともに、片持ち梁部5と基板部2が押出材製である。【選択図】図1
