1. A force sensor assembly comprising:

  • force sensing circuitry for receiving and input force and converting the input force into an output signal indicative of the input force; and

    ,a coupling having an inner section for transmitting the input force to the force sensor circuitry, an outer section for receiving an applied contact force and a collapsible section for allowing the outer section to move relative to the inner section when the contact force exceeds a threshold;

    such that,the input force never exceeds the threshold.
