A wheel force measuring hub assembly has a measuring value sensor assembly and comprises an exterior ring part and an interior ring part. A wheel rim is attachable on the exterior ring part. The interior ring part is attachable to a wheel axle. Both ring parts are connected with one another by way of radially extending measuring webs on which strain gauges are arranged for determining forces and torques to be measured. The strain gauges are configured to determine the three mutually perpendicular axial occurring forces Fx, Fy and Fz as well as pertaining torques Mx, My and Mz. The strain gauges are arranged, aligned and connected with one another for determining all forces and torques by way of the shearing strains occurring in the case of a load on a wheel being monitored.
Wheel force measuring hub assembly comprising:
In a wheel force measuring hub assembly including an exterior ring part adapted to be mounted at a wheel rim, an interior ring part adapted to be mounted at a vehicle axle, and a plurality of radially extending measuring webs connecting the exterior ring part and the interior ring part, the improvement consisting of strain gauges arranged on the measuring webs in a configuration such that wheel forces F.sub.x, F.sub.y and F.sub.z and torques M.sub.x, M.sub.y and M.sub.z are determined exclusively via shearing strains acting on said strain gauges to decouple individual force and torque components from one another.
Wheel force measuring hub assembly, comprising:
A wheel force indicator, comprising:
