ABSTRACT:
The load of a railroad car is measured by placing the base of a measuring device upon the flange of a track along which the railroad car is displaceable. The lower leg of a U-shaped member is lifted to bring the upper leg of this member into engagement with the vehicle wheel. A lever is fulcrumed on the lower leg and has one side biased by the free upper arm while the other side acts upon a meter displaying the load.
