PROCESS OF DETERMINATION OF NET MASS OF RAILWAY CARGO OF MOVING TRAIN Russian patent published in 1997 - IPC

FIELD: production and usage of liquid and other products shipped by railway. SUBSTANCE: for determination of net mass of railway cargo train is moved along weighing track with speed within permitted range, components of weight of each freight car are measured and summed up depending on speed of running of train Repeat weighing of empty train is performed and net masses are calculated by difference of weights of freight cars before and after unloading. Weight modules are mounted at distances equal to lengths without most widely used cars. Horizontal section of weighing track is limited and section with inclination found by coefficients of resistance of weighing track and average loading of train is formed. While while summing up weight of each car one should take into account whether base of weighed car coincides with one of intermodule distances. EFFECT: improved reliability of process. 2 cl, 9 dwg
