20150344277 | LIFT-TRUCK FORK FOR WEIGHING, HAVING REINFORCED AND STIFFENED COVER-ASSEMBLY - The fork is cut into two pieces by abrasive waterjet. The toe-piece is formed with sidebars which, when the toe-piece is welded into the cover, greatly enhance rigidity of the cover-assembly. The heel-piece carries the load cells. In an option, a peninsula is cut in the heel-piece by waterjet, and the peninsula serves as the flexure-member of the loadcell. | 12-03-2015 |
20110113897 | SHACKLE-BAR WITH LOAD-CELL - For use with cranes or hoists, the traditional shackle-bolt through-hole in the shackle-bar is elongated into a slot. A sub-unit comprising a cell-block, a load-cell, a load-block, and one of the shackle-bolts, is placed in the slot. The load-cell, of suitable size, is housed in a very robust manner, and yet the load capacity of the shackle-bar is unaffected by being so modified. | 05-19-2011 |
20110067502 | Load-Cell System - For adding a retro-fit load-measuring system to a walkie-type pallet truck etc, the low-profile load cell is formed with a chunky inner-boss and outer-ring. A thin annular disc, to which strain-gauges are cemented, extends between the two. The load-cell is installed in a fork of the truck, the outer-ring engaging a hole in the fork. The fork-cover engages the inner-boss of the load-cell, and is attached thereto with some free play. | 03-24-2011 |
