Apparatus for warning loading excess of vehicle
First Claim
1. An apparatus for warning of an excess loading on vehicle comprising:
- a lower arm rotatably mounted on a body of such vehicle;
a motion conversion means which is mounted to the lower arm and converts a motion of said lower arm, in response to drooping of the body, to a rotational motion;
a rotation disc which rotates by receiving a torque from said motion conversion means, and has two slit holes whose lengths are different from each other along a circumference;
an overload sensing means for sensing an overload through a medium of said slit holes of said rotation disc; and
an attention calling means which are operated by selectively receiving a power supply through said overload sensing means, and calls a driver'"'"'s attention to said overload.

Abstract
An apparatus for warning a loading excess of vehicle includes: a motion conversion mechanism which is mounted to a lower arm rotatably mounted in a body of a vehicle, and converts a motion of the lower arm by a drooping body to a rotational motion; a rotation disc which rotates by receiving a torque from the motion conversion mechanism, and has two slit holes whose lengths are different from each other along a circumference; an overload sensing device for sensing an overload through a medium of the slit holes of the rotation disc; and an attention calling device which are operated by selectively receiving a power supply through the overload sensing device, and calls the driver'"'"'s attention to the overload. The apparatus for warning the loading excess of vehicle senses an overload state through the medium of both the disc proportionally rotated according to a vehicle'"'"'s load and the diodes, sequentially calls the driver'"'"'s attention to the overload by using the warning lamp and the warning sound, prevents a component such as a shock absorber from being damaged, lengthens the vehicle'"'"'s lifetime, lets the driver drive more safely, and thus prevents a traffic accident caused by the unreasonable driving under the loading excess state.
