Automobile Tires

Miniature force transducers in the form of strain gage instrumented tension links are used to measure the loads developed in the rayon cords in both the stabilizer and body plies of automobile tires of radial construction. These transducers are placed in series with the cord and are embedded in the rubber matrix of the tire during building. Cord forces are obtained at various wheel loads and inflation pressures for straight ahead rolling and cornering of the tires in operation. It is shown that a relatively simple formula can be used to theoretically predict the cord tension developed in the sidewall region due to inflation pressure.

Fluidic Resistance

A possible fluidic load cell design consists of three parts: a structural member that deforms linearly with load, a fluidic strain gage having fluidic resistance that changes with deformation, and a three-stage laminar proportional amplifier-gain block that amplifies the change in strain gage through-flow to useful levels. This Technical Brief presents design relations for the first two parts of such a system. Two compressive load cells were built, incorporating different fabrication techniques and deformation-sensing methods. The loading range of these cells is about 0 to 20 kN (0 to 2 tons) with a dynamic range greater than 100 and a typical full-scale output pressure of 30 pascals (4 × 10−3 psi). Possible applications for fluidic load cells include force measurements in highly incendiary or radiative environments and/or when other fluid control circuitry is used.

Design Construction

Design, construction and performance characteristics are described for a rugged, compact, linear force transducer using strain gages as the sensing elements. The device is adaptable to a variety of weighing or force-measurement tasks in the laboratory. weight measurement; mass measurement; force transducer; weight transducer; load cell Submitted on November 13, 1964
