ABSTRACT:
A track working or transport vehicle comprises a frame and two undercarriages supporting the frame. Springs are mounted between the side frames of the undercarriages and the vehicle frame, the springs having a stroke whose length is proportional to variable loads distributed to a respective undercarriage wheel from the vehicle frame. A displacement pickup is connected to each group of springs and arranged to measure the stroke thereof, the pickup generating an electrical output signal proportional to the measured stroke. An arrangement for continuously monitoring and indicating the loads distributed to the respective wheels includes a summation circuit having a first input receiving the output signals from the pickups, a second input received fixed electrical signals proportional to the weight of non-yieldingly mounted parts of the undercarriages, and an output transmitting electrical output signals proportional to the wheel loads derived from the inputs. An indicator device receives each output signal from the summation circuit and correspondingly indicates the wheel loads.
