Abstract
An arrangement comprising a torsionally stressed machine part including two operatively connected torsional spring elements spaced from each other, extending parallel to each other, each spring element being subjected to a separate input torque and having a different spring constant, and a sensor located at a comparision point of the two spring elements for detecting a differential of two input angles of rotation of the two spring elements whereby a differential of the two input torques is determined.
