TRUCK SCALES Russian patent published in 2008 - IPC G01G19/02 

FIELD: physics.

SUBSTANCE: truck scales contain platforms in the form of rigidly interconnected track guides, entering side of one platform is ball supported by one foundation mounted force-measuring transmitters, platform down shift stoppers, one of which is designed in the form of earring one end of which is hinged to the platform, and another to the foundation, earring-shaped element of platform stabilisation is attached in plane perpendicular to track guides plane on entering side of the platform. Delivery sides of the platforms are equipped with ball supported longitudinal guides bearing on foundation mounted force-measuring transmitters, entering sides of the other platforms are equipped with in-built longitudinally moving support brackets complementary to longitudinal guides of the previous platform delivery sides. Other stabilisation elements over platform number are paired earrings, one ends of earrings are hinged to the foundation by axis longitudinal to scales symmetry axis, and the others to track guides on delivery side of each platform respectively. Angle between each pair of earrings is 20-65 angular degrees.

EFFECT: design simplification; higher reliability and transportability of truck scales; performance expansion.
