DEVICE FOR MONITORING SAFE MOVEMENT OF RAILWAY TANKS DURING TRANSPORTATION OF BULK CARGO Russian patent published in 2023 - IPC G08B1/08 

FIELD: instrumentation; signaling equipment.

SUBSTANCE: device contains electro-acoustic transducers and a temperature sensor, while the outputs of the electro-acoustic transducers are directly connected to the processor through the signal converters, and the temperature sensor, there are sensors for the longitudinal and transverse angles of the tank, a controller for calculating the volume of bulk cargo, the inputs of which are connected to the output of the processor and the unit inputting information about the type of tank, and the output is connected to the controller for calculating the mass of liquid cargo, the inputs of which are connected to the temperature sensor of the liquid cargo and the block for input of the type of liquid cargo connected to the processor, while the output of the controller for calculating the mass of liquid cargo is connected through the serially connected database block and the first comparator to the alarm.

EFFECT: development of an alarm signalling the occurrence of a dangerous decrease in the load on one or more wheels of tanks of a moving train.
