Patent attributes
A support force measurement apparatus for determining a support force on a support element of a support structure of a movable working machine. The measurement apparatus has at least one measurement element and a support leg. The measurement element is connected to a deformation body capable of being deformed with an effect of the support force, so as to form a sensor and send a signal proportional to the support force. The support leg has the sensor and is movably connected to the support element. The support element comprises a cable connection, and the cable connection is constructed in a manner of guiding electrical energy and is used for sending the signal proportional to the support force to an analysis apparatus in a machine. The support element in the support leg and the sensor are provided with electromagnetic interfaces.
