<p>An adjustable leveling device such as is used with vibration isolators for mounting industrial machinery, which has the capability of sensing and indicating the load forces exerted on it. Load-sensing is by way of strain gauges adhered to the device and connected in a Wheatstone bridge circuit to a source of current and to a suitable read-out meter. When a machine is mounted in a plurality of the devices, a composite reading may be obtained of the total load supported thereby. Individual devices may then be adjusted for uniform load distribution as determined by reference to the read-out meters.</p> |
