METHOD OF VEHICLE LOADING AND VEHICLE WEIGHING DEVICE Russian patent published in 2011 - IPC G01G19/08 

FIELD: physics.

SUBSTANCE: vehicle floor check points are equipped with n pressure pickups, cargo weight is defined in its displacement to every said check point, cargo is fixed at check point by special fasteners, vehicle weight is compared with limiting magnitude. In case vehicle weight exceeds limiting magnitude, preventive signal is generated. Specific pressure of cargo on vehicle floor is defined at check points to be compared with limiting magnitude. In case measured magnitude exceeds limiting magnitude, preventive signal is generated. Center of gravity of vehicle is defined and compared with operating range of centers of gravity and, if required, preventive signal about poor center-of-gravity position is generated. Besides, proposed device incorporates dynamic weighing unit, n pressure pickups arranged on vehicle check zones, n charge program amplifiers, n-channel analog-code converters, microcomputer, setter of reference voltages, setter of loading-unloading conditions, supervisor, control unit, com-port, and special cargo fasteners.

EFFECT: higher accuracy and reliability.
