VEHICLE WEIGHT METER FOR CONCRETE MIXER TRUCK

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a significantly endurable vehicle meter for a concrete mixer truck, capable of preventing the vehicle running stability from being degraded. SOLUTION: This concrete mixer truck is provided with a forcing-up member 62 mounted on the vehicle meter 6 at a prescribed distance below the rear part of a drum 3; a hydraulic cylinder 61 for driving the forcing-up member 62; and an oil pressure gauge (a measuring means) for measuring oil pressure in the hydraulic cylinder 61. Oil pressure in the hydraulic cylinder is measured with the oil pressure gauge by moving up the forcing-up member 62 with the hydraulic cylinder 61 so that the rear part of the drum 3 may float from a rear-sidesupporting part 5 while the front part of the drum 3 is being supported by a front-side supporting part when the vehicle meter 6 detects the carrying capacity of the drum 3.
