발전소나 중화학 설비에는 수많은 파이프 라인(Pipe Line)이 설치되어 있는데 파이프 라인의 건전성을 평가하고자 할 때는 배관 요소요소에 작용하는 응력 및 변형율이 구조 건전성의 평가 지표가 되어 있다. 이 응력 및 변형율은 배관 요소요소에 작용하는 하중에 의하여 결정되며, 이 하중은 배관 지지장치에 작용하는 하중으로 나타난다. 이런 파이프 라인은 수많은 배관 지지장치(配管 支持裝置)로 구성되어 있다. 배관 지지장치는 스프링 행거(Spring Hanger), 콘스탄트 행거(Coanstant Hanger), 리지드 행거(Rigid Hanger) 및 배관 지지대(配管 支持臺)로 크게 구분되어 있고, 배관 지지장치에 작용하는 하중을 평가하기 위한 방법으로 스프링 행거(Spring Hanger), 콘스탄트 행거(Coanstant Hanger)와 같이 스프링을 기초로 하는 지지장치에 대하여는 하중 측정방법이 개발되어 있으나, 배관 지지대에 대하여는 하중 측정방법이 개발되지 못한 상태로 되어 있어 그동안 파이프 라인의 건전성을 평가하는 데 장애가 되고 있었다. 이에 본 발명에서는 파이프 라인을 지지하고 있는 배관 지지대에 작용하고 있는 하중을 측정하기 위하여 배관 지지대가 받치고 있는 파이프를 살짝 들어 올리면서 올라가는 변위와 그 때의 하중을 측정하면서 하중-변위 선도를 그리고, 이 하중-변위 선도의 불연속선을 평가하여 하중을 구하는 방법을 적용하기 위하여 필요한 장비를 발명하고, 이 발명된 장비를 이용하여 배관 지지대의 하중을 평가하는 방법을 개발하고자 한다. 이를 위하여 아기의 몸무게를 측정할 때 아기를 보자기에 싸서 보자기를 저울에 메달아 무게를 측정하는 바와 같이 파이프를 보자기에 싸서 이 보자기를 저울에 메달아 배관 지지대에 작용하는 파이프의 무게, 즉 하중을 측정하는 방법을 본 발명에 적용하고자 한다. 이에 본 발명에서는 배관 지지대에 안착(安着)되어 있는 파이프를 살짝 들어 올리는 보자기와 같은 수단으로 인양 로프를, 이 보자기를 저울에 메다는 수단으로 인가되는 하중을 알 수 있는 가압 장치(加壓 裝置)를 개발하여 보자기를 들어 올릴 때 파이프가 들어 올려지는 량과 그때의 하중을 측정할 수 있는 방법을 개발하였다. Numerous pipelines are installed in power plants and heavy chemical plants. When evaluating the integrity of pipelines, the stresses and strains acting on piping element elements are indicators of structural integrity. These stresses and strains are determined by the loads acting on the piping element elements, which are represented by the loads acting on the pipe support. These pipelines consist of a number of pipe support devices. Piping support is largely divided into Spring Hanger, Constant Hanger, Rigid Hanger, and Piping Support, and is a method for evaluating the load applied to the piping support. As a result, load measuring methods have been developed for spring-based support devices such as spring hangers and constant hangers, but pipe measuring methods have not been developed. It was an obstacle to assessing the health of the line. Accordingly, in the present invention, in order to ...

Arrangement for weighing goods in a hanging position

247,980. Wahl, L. G. Feb. 19, 1925, [Convention date]. Apparatus fitted to cranes.-Relates to a combined hoisting and weighing device of the kind in which after the load has been raised to a certain extent it is automatically shifted from the hoisting cable to a weighing cable, and after the weighing has been effected, is shifted back to the hoisting cable, and consists in that the load so acts upon the gripping-levers during weighing as to cause them to swing open upon the lifting of the load. The hoisting wire 3 at its free end is attached to a ring 30 slidable within the tubular shank 31 of a goods hook 6. Projecting from the upper end of the shank 31 is a conical member 14, which on its underside is provided with a collar 33 adapted to co-operate with two semi-cylindrical collars 20, 20<1> formed on the inner ends of two levers 19, 19<1>. A casing 15 suspended from the weighing wire (not shown) is provided with two transverse shafts 17, 17'. Two arms 18, 18' are freely pivoted on the shafts 17, 17' and carry at their lower ends the levers 19, 19<1>. The shafts 17, 17<1> are provided at their ends with cranks 24, 24<1> between which two springs 25 are stretched, the springs normally causing projections 23, Fig. 5, to bear on the arms 18, 18<1> and thereby tending to draw the arms together. In use, the hook is raised by the hoisting wire into the position shown in Fig. 2, it is then lowered until it is supported on the collars 20. 20<1> and a weighment is made. The levers 19, 19' pivot under the load and force two rods 22, upwardly, thereby rotating the shafts 17, 17' and causing the springs to take up positions in which they tend to draw the arms apart, so that upon the raising of the hook the way is made clear for lowering. A cone 34 on the hoisting wire engages two cams 27, 27' during the lowering, and resets the device.

Fibre=optic force sensor esp. for passenger lift load detector

The load is applied to a lever (3), representing the cabin load or a fraction of it, applied to one end. Part of the force applied is transmitted to the other end of the lever (3), by a set transformation relationship and is applied to a deformable element (17) having a fibre optic connection (19). This fibre optic (19) is subjected to local micro-deformations over a radius of curvature below its elastic rupture step value with an amplitude related to the load applied. A light source (35) is arranged at one of the fibre optics ends and a light detector (37) is arranged at the other end, which measures as output the transmitted amplitude of the light beam in the deformation zone. An electronic measuring unit (39,41,43), compares and converts the amplitude of the light beam emitted and transmitted to each of the fibre ends and then processes the signals after conversion so as to determine the light attenuation caused by the fibre optic deformation from which the force applied to the lever is calculated.

Load measuring apparatus for an elevator car

P10377.S01 Abstract of the Disclosure The load measuring apparatus is arranged at an elevator car and detects the car load brought about by passengers and/or goods transported by the elevator car. An upper crossbeam together with vertically extending supports and a lower crossbeam forms a support frame suspended at traction cables and moves within an elevator shaft along suitable guide rails. A floor frame mounted on isolation pads at the lower crossbeam carries the elevator car. At the roof of the elevator car there is centrally arranged a reference plate member which is part of the load measuring apparatus. A proximity sensor centrally arranged at the upper crossbeam has a predetermined frontal spacing from the reference plate member in the no-load condition of the elevator car. When the elevator car carries a load this predetermine frontal spacing increases as a function of compression of the isolation pads. The proximity sensor then generates an electrical signal or potential which is dependent upon the momentarily prevailing frontal spacing from the reference plate member.

Platform scale

The invention relates to a platform scale comprised of a base (6) on which a weighing element (26) is supported and of a weighing platform (1) that rests on said weighing element (26). The weighing element (26) consists, for example, of two rectangular tubes (3) each having an upper and lower ridge (2, 4). The introduction of force occurs via said ridges (2, 4). A second rectangular tube (7) extends between the first rectangular tubes (3) and supports a sensor (8) which is subjected to the action of a rod (9) mounted in a fastening element (10). The force of the load acting upon the ridges (2, 4) causes a bending of the second rectangular tube. This bending is recorded by the sensor (8) and the magnitude thereof is determined. The ridges (2, 4) can extend over the entire length of the first rectangular tubes (3) or can also be discontinuous. In addition, they can be configured as bending springs and/or can support lower and upper edges. In the first case, the ridges (2, 4) take on the bulk of the bending work and, in the second case, they transmit pure forces.
