Abstract
An apparatus for lifting motor vehicles, with a carrying element for carrying the motor vehicle to be lifted, wherein this carrying element has at least one sensor device for detecting a weight force of the vehicle to be lifted, wherein the carrying element has at least two carrying arms which are arranged in a central region of the carrying element and which starting from the central region extend in at least two different directions. At least one sensor element for detecting a partial weight force is provided in each case on these carrying arms, wherein a force determining device for determining the weight force takes into consideration the partial weight forces determined by the at least three sensor elements.
Claims15
An apparatus for lifting motor vehicles, with a carrying clement for carrying the motor vehicle to be lifted, wherein this carrying element has at least one sensor device for detecting a weight force of the vehicle to be lifted, wherein the carrying element has at least two carrying arms which are arranged in a central region of the carrying element and which starting from the central region extend in at least two different directions, wherein at least one sensor element for detecting a partial weight force is arranged in each case on these carrying arms, wherein a force determining device for determining the weight force takes into consideration the partial weight forces determined by the at least three sensor elements.
A carrying element for an apparatus for lifting motor vehicles, wherein this carrying element has at least one sensor device for detecting a value which is characteristic of the weight force of the vehicle to be lifted, wherein the carrying element has at least two carrying arms which are arranged in a central region of the carrying element and which starting from the central region extend in at least two different directions, and wherein the carrying element additionally has a connecting body by which it is capable of being connected to a carrier of the apparatus for lifting motor vehicles, wherein least one sensor element is provided in each case on these carrying arms in order to detect a partial weight force, wherein a force determination device for determining the weight force takes into consideration the partial weight forces determined by the at least two sensor elements and wherein the at least two sensor elements are arranged at a distance from each other.
