Measuring device and method for measuring stress in a transmission system

摘要

The present invention relates to a measuring device for measuring stress in a transmission system and to a method associated with same; where said transmission system comprises a first axle (1) and a second axle (4) linked to one another through a transmission element (5); and where the measuring device comprises: a static measurement axle (2), where said static measurement axle (2) is coupled to the transmission element (5), and where said static axle (2) comprises at least one sensor configured for measuring the stress which the transmission element (5) applies on said static measurement axle (2); a movable pre-tensing axle (3) which is in contact with the transmission element (5); and where said movable axle (3) is configured to be able to move between at least two positions causing an increase or a decrease in the tension of said transmission element (5); and a data acquisition system (6) linked to the static measurement axle (2); and where said data acquisition system (6) is configured for taking data of the stress measured in the static measurement axle (2); giving rise to a device with a very simple and effective configuration; obtaining a series of highly accurate results.
