Apparatus for representing a load to be carried by a dump truck
First Claim
1. An apparatus for representing a load to be carried by a dump truck for which representing is effected on the basis of said load which has been measured by a load meter of the type mounted on said dump truck, wherein said apparatus comprises;
- calculating means for calculating the number of loading operations by addition at every time when said load is stepwise increased so as to allow a load to be carried by the dump truck during a next loading operation to be estimated with reference to the number of loading operations and the load which has been loaded on the dump truck till now, andrepresenting means for representing an estimative load to be carried by the dump truck, said estimative load being calculated by said calculating means.

Abstract
As earth and sand are loaded on a dump truck by operating a loader, a quantity of load to be carried by the dump truck is stepwise increased at every time when a loading operation is performed. To assure that the load does not substantially exceed a rated load given to the dump truck, there is a need of estimating a load to be carried by the dump truck during a next loading operation. To this end, there is provided an apparatus for representing a load to be carried by the dump truck for which representing is effected on the basis of the load which has been measured using a load meter of the type mounted on the dump truck. The apparatus includes a calculating unit for calculating the number of loading operations by addition at every time when the load is stepwise increased so as to allow a load to be carried by the dump truck during a next loading operation to be estimated with reference to the number of loading operations and the load which has been loaded on the dump truck till now and a display unit for representing an estimative load to be carried by the dump truck, the estimative load being calculated using the calculating unit.
