Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the measurement of mass or weight of a moving object such as a vehicle or ship.
  • the conventional way to measure vehicle mass for example is to weigh it on weighbridge so measuring the force exerted on the mass by gravitational acceleration. This requires the vehicle to be taken to a weighbridge.
  • the present invention seeks to provide an improved method and apparatus for measuring the mass of an object such as a vehicle.
  • the present invention provides a method of measuring the mass of an object comprising: causing the object to move over a first measurement period whereby said object moves over a first distance; measuring the accumulated first work energy or impulse done during movement of the object over said first distance to provide a first work energy or impulse value; causing the object to move over a second measurement period whereby said object moves over a second distance; measuring the accumulated second work energy or impulse done during movement of the object over said second distance to provide a second work energy or impulse value; measuring the velocity of the object at the beginning and end of each of said first and second distances; deriving a value for the mass of the object as a function of the measurements of said velocities and said first and second work energy or impulse values; wherein during movement of the object over at least one of said first and second distances the object undergoes a change of momentum.
  • the present invention also provides an apparatus for measuring the mass of a moving object comprising: first means for measuring the accumulated work energy or impulse done during movement of the object over a measurement period and providing an accumulated first work/impulse signal representative thereof; velocity means for measuring the velocity of the object and providing first and second velocity signals representative of the velocity of the object at the beginning and end of the measurement period respectively; store means for storing said first work/impulse signal and velocity signals; and processor means for deriving a mass signal representative of the mass of the object, as a function of said accumulated first work/impulse signal and velocity signals measured over at least two measurement periods.
  • the present invention relates to the measurement of mass of a body undergoing a change of linear velocity and/or the measurement of rotational moment of inertia of a rotating body undergoing a change of angular velocity, through the accurate measurement of both the change of velocity and the accumulated work" which caused it, or the change of angular velocity and the accumulated work which caused it, over a period of measurement.
  • the average force or average torque is calculated from the measurement of aggregated mechanical work energy over a measurement distance.
  • average force value can be obtained from the measurement of aggregated impulse over a time period.
  • the work method is much superior in most land applications but the impulse method can be used to advantage depending on the constraints imposed by the mass measurement.
  • the present invention overcomes these difficulties. It offers an apparatus and method for an accurate measurement of mass of a vehicle with or without its cargo, through measurements undertaken over a distance or over a time period.
  • the prime measurements undertaken in a preferred method of mass measurement according to this invention are:
  • Typical applications for the measurement of the mass of vehicles include: single self propelling vehicles such as a car or a lorry; towed vehicles such as an articulated truck, an aeroplane being towed on the ground or a ship being towed on water. Further application to vehicles coupled in series such as a train is also described. The measurement can be carried out when the vehicle is unladen or laden with cargo, and the mass of the cargo, can be done by subtraction.
  • the present invention enables the mass of a vehicle to be measured with an instrument situated either 'on board' the vehicle whilst it is on the move or alternatively on board a second detachable towing vehicle.
  • the impulse based method of mass measurement uses a similar measurement method where impulse quantities are accumulated instead of work quantities but the sampling of values of force or torque, during the journey, is triggered not by distance intervals as is the case for the measurement of work but by time intervals.
  • the impulse based method is only accurate for measurement movements which do not involve a change of elevation in the direction of gravitational acceleration, hence an important application for it is the measurement of mass of ships floating on calm water.
  • the sum of the two types of inertia masses are determined by the method of measurement according to this invention.
  • the total mass moved linearly as well as the rotating masses multiplied by their effective radius of gyration.
  • the mass of rotating wheels is measured twice, once as a translationally accelerating mass and again as a rotationally accelerating mass.
  • the measurement of inertia mass of an unladen vehicle can be subtracted from the measurement of inertia mass of the same vehicle when laden to yield the measurement of the static mass of the payload alone.
  • Wk Work energy used to change kinetic energy.
  • Wf Work energy used to overcome all unmeasured friction resistance forces opposing motion.
  • Mw Total weight-revealed mass, or static mass of vehicle.
  • Mi Total inertia-revealed mass of vehicle including 'Gyration Mass '.
  • MG 'Gyration Mass Equivalent' or rotating mass multiplied by its radius of gyration.
  • Mc Static mass of cargo within Mi .
  • Ff Mean effective friction force or resultant force causing friction resistance in direction against motion, averaged over the journey.
  • ⁇ Z Change in elevation in gravitational direction.
  • V Vehicle velocity
  • Vm Arithmetical average velocity over measurement journey.
  • X Position of vehicle along measurement journey measured from a set origin.
  • the measurements which are taken in order to calculate the mass of an object such as a vehicle are taken over one or two stages of movement. Where one stage is used it is divided into two phases of movement (two phase) . Where two stages are used, each stage may be divided into one (two stage single phase) or two (two stage two phase) phases of movement. Where two phases are used, the second may follow on continuously from the first phase, or not, as desired.
  • distance refers both to the length of travel and the path of travel covered by a moving object during a measurement period. Thus, distances which are describes as being the same are of the same length of travel and over the same path.
  • Measurements may be taken at the beginning, the end and/or over the duration of a phase (distance), and the phrase "measurement period” as used herein refers to a selected distance or a selected period of time (which thereby sets the length of travel covered) over which the measurements are taken.

  • a two phase measurement is over over two successive distances (X 2a -X 1a ) and (X 2b -X 1b ) and is used to cancel out friction resistance work Wf (see Figure 2).
  • Two stage single phase measurements are taken twice over the same distance, say (X 2a -X 1a ), firstly through phase (a), and then through phase (c) by returning the vehicle to the starting point at X 1a for the second stage.
  • Such a compound measurement is used to cancel out gravitational elevation work. It can also cancel out friction resistance with only two measurements and is useful when friction resistance is not very sensitive to vehicle velocity.
  • a two stage, two phase measurement is one in which the second stage is a repeat of the first stage with phases (c) and (d) being over the same distances as phase (a) and (b). It cancels out elevation work for each phase pair (a) with (c) and (b) with (d) and cancels out friction resistance for phase pairs (a) with (b) and (c) with (d).
  • the first stage can effectively cancel out wind resistance, which is velocity sensitive, by operating phases (a) and (b) at similar velocities which can be higher in the first stage, if it is the acceleration stage, than in the second stage.
  • the second stage which effectively cancels out elevation work, little acceleration is required and both phases (c) and (d) can be conducted at similar but lower velocities than phases (a) and (b) .
  • Equation (2) the mean effective friction force averaged over each phase may be safely regarded as having the same or nearly the same value over both measurement phases.

  • W a is the work quantity measured over phase (a) and WG a is the work consumed against the force of gravity over phase (a) if the moving mass increases its elevation.
  • W a has a positive value when the mass accelerates and a negative value when the mass decelerates.
  • WG a has a positive value when the mass increases its elevation and a negative value when the mass decreases its elevation.
  • a constant (R) can represent the ratio
  • R can be used to simplify Eq. (7a).
  • a two stage two phase measurement is advantageously carried out with different average force/torque and velocities in each of the stages as shown in Figure (3a).
  • the two stage measurement is carried out in order to eliminate the effect of changes in geographical gravitational elevation which causes work quantities WG a and WG b to be expended against gravity.
  • the two phase measurement is carried out in order to eliminate resistance forces.
  • One of the stages requires the use of a large amount of work to generate an increase in kinetic energy in order to reveal the mass of the vehicle and this need can lead to a relatively large terminal velocity.
  • the other stage benefits from avoiding a large change in kinetic energy as the accurate measurement of velocity changes at low speed under gravity forces can offer an accurate measure of elevation work. It is therefore possible to increase accuracy if resistance forces are cancelled out between the phases for each stage at similar average velocities.
  • phase ( ⁇ ) a new measurement period of work
  • phase (d) a new measurement period of work
  • one pair of phases e.g. (a) and (b) may be devoted mainly to generating a large positive value for the measurement of work quantity W ⁇ (through large acceleration torque) and if possible as large a negative value as possible for the measurement of work quantity W b (through large deceleration torque).
  • W ⁇ through large acceleration torque
  • W b through large deceleration torque
  • torques applied by the brakes to the wheels of a vehicle must either be measured and allowed for as part of the measured work (W) or if measurement is impracticable, wheel braking must be avoided altogether during phases (a), (b), (c), and (d), as appropriate.
  • the second stage of a two stage measurement may be devoted mainly to the elimination of the effect of work against gravitational elevations encountered along the previous journey undertaken in the first stage. This can therefore be effectively done with little acceleration or deceleration and little applied force or torque as shown in Figure 3A.
  • a vehicle may use a two stage single phase measurement, using Equation (8). Such a measurement ensures the exact re-positioning of the centre of gravity of the vehicle at the start and end of the measurement distance and can therefore be accurate as well as simple.
  • the distance (X 2 -X 1 ) may be chosen sufficiently short to allow the vehicle to reverse so as to return to the starting point without a need for a special roundabout journey.
  • the error in the measurement of mass may be kept to such a low value as to be negligible.
  • the measurement distance chosen, (X 2 -X 1 ) can be short e.g. ten metres or a few tens of metres. Also, measurement periods can start with the vehicle accelerating from rest. This facility helps in defining the starting position X 1 and allows a measurement with a low mean velocity and this has the beneficial effect of minimising wind resistance errors due to incomplete cancellation.
  • Figure 3B illustrates a measurement technique where a computer selects a distance from within the vehicle journey for the purpose of calculating the vehicle's mass.
  • the processor also selects the same distance (X 2a -X 1a ) for both phase (a) in stage 1 and phase (c) in stage 2 to ensure the cancellation of gravitational work.
  • the processor stores the values of force or torque, distance and velocity for every sampling point along the journey and can therefore identify the exact location of points X la and X 2a . This allows thee processor to discard parts of the journey which contain widely fluctuating torque or force which may reduce accuracy. Selecting only part of a journey for the distance may also assist in avoiding velocity measurement errors.

  • the apparatus has a force or torque transducer 1 which may be, for example, a strain gauge based load cell for force measurement or a strain gauge torque measuring tube for torque measurement.
  • the electrical output from transducer 1 may be an analogue signal e.g. a voltage proportional to either force or torque, or a digital signal. Where it is an analogue signal it is fed into an A/D (analogue to digital) converter 2 where the measurements are converted to a digital signal.

  • the angle through which the disc rotates between successive trigger events (trigger pulses) is directly proportional to the linear distance covered by the moving force between the said successive triggering events.
  • the disc may conveniently be formed or driven by a wheel rolling along the surface on which the force is engaging for propulsion.
  • the angle through which the disc rotates between successive triggering events is directly proportional to the angle of rotation of the torque- transmitting shaft between the successive triggering events.
  • the rotating disc may conveniently be mechanically coupled to the rotating shaft transmitting the measured torque.
  • the number of trigger events during one revolution of the trigger 3 is chosen according to the extent of the fluctuation in the values of the force or torque being measured and the accuracy required for the work energy and/or mass measurements.
  • the signals from the trigger 3 control the opening and closing of the gate 4 which allows, when open, the digitised signal representing measurement of either force or torque to be transmitted to a summing circuit 5 where it is added to the grand total value of all the preceding measurements. There is no need for preceding readings to be stored separately, only their sum total at any instant.
  • Counter 11 may be used to stop or start a measurement period after a predetermined number of counts (hence a predetermined distance travelled) by closing gate 4. Counter 11 may be reset to zero to start a measurement period by a reset signal from reset 8.

If so, the same distance must also be selected from the second stage measurement journey which ideally should be started at precisely the same starting point, preferably from a standing start.
  • the processor may be programmed to memorise just the minimum information of cumulative work, terminal velocities and cumulative distances so as to provide a simpler apparatus.

  • the measurement of work is also useful as it quantifies the average elapsed thermal efficiency of the engine of a vehicle over the journey, if compared with the energy, input associated with the quantity of fuel consumed, measured over the same journey period.

  • the train may start from rest and move slowly forward over a short distance and then stop and start a slow return movement over the same distance.
  • the distance (X 2 -X 1 ) may be selected by the processor from within the journey distance, in both directions. This procedure eliminates the effect of elevation work WG to reveal the magnitude of the friction force Ff ⁇ of the last wagon.

  • Mi and MG now refer to any wagon.
  • MG can be substituted from a calculated value knowing the number of rotating axles or it may be justifiably neglected in many applications where it is very much smaller than Mw.

  • the centre of wagon T As the journey continues after the end of the measurement (time t 2 ) the centre of wagon T, at time (t 2 + ⁇ 5 t ') passes the point where the centre of wagon S was at time t 2 to give a cumulative work value to that point of W TS2 . Finally, at time ( t 2 + ⁇ t ') and a distance of (X 2 +X 1 +L S +LQ) from its position at the start of the measurement, the centre of wagon T reaches the point where the centre of wagon Q was at time t 2 and records a cumulative work value of W TQ2 .

  • ⁇ Z can now be substituted in Equation (3b) to give a value for (WG 2 -WG 1 ) , which in turn is used in Equation (6c), to calculate mass Mi for each wagon.
  • the measurement procedure for a train is as follows:
  • Equation (17) the processor evaluates the elevation change ⁇ Z experienced by each of the wagons during the mass measurements.
  • An alternative form of apparatus for measuring the mass of an object through its inertial resistance to a change of its momentum samples the force or torque measurement at preselected time intervals to yield an aggregated impulse quantity.
  • This technique of impulse mass measurement is a variation suitable for applications where there is no change of gravitational elevation during the measurement period, for instance a ship moving on calm sea.

  • the mass measurement based on accumulated impulse measurement using Equations 26 is less attractive than the mass measurement based on work measurement when applied to road vehicles since absolutely flat, horizontal roads are not easily available.
  • the . latter method may, however, be very suitable for use in measuring the mass of vessels floating on water where change of elevation can be easily avoided.
  • Figure 8 shows such an example where a ship 300 is towed by a tug 310 with a cable.
  • the force measurement at 1 can be a basis for mass measurement using the impulse method after making due allowance for the angle of the cable from the horizontal. It is important that an accurate method is available for measuring the velocity of the ship during the measurement. Instead of being accelerated by a tug a ship may trail a cable attached to a drag inducing object, such as a water parachute 330 and the deceleration force is measured and accumulated as an aggregated impulse.
  • a third possibility is to measure the torque or reaction force on the propeller 320 and sample it against a clock to yield an accumulated; impulse quantity for mass measurement.
  • experimental calibrations of the instrument are needed to reveal calibration factors for Equation (26b). As the relationship between hydrodynamic resistance and ship speed are theoretically understood, the value of (r) in Equation (28) can be allowed for.
