Patent attributes
A measurement machine for uniformity serves for determining radial and lateral force fluctuations of vehicle tires (4), which are received by a drivable support spindle (2) supported on a machine frame (1). The vehicle tire (4) rotates on a rotatable revolving drum supported on the machine frame (1) via force measurement elements (8). The rotational axis of the support shaft (2) is disposed horizontally. The rotational axis of the revolving drum (5) is disposed horizontally in a vertical plane containing the rotational axis of the support shaft (2) beneath the support spindle (2). The revolving drum (5) is supported in a revolving drum carriage (9) vertically adjustable in the machine frame (1). The revolving drum (5) has a drum shaft (6), the two drum shaft bearings (7) of which are each supported via one of the force measurement elements (8) on the revolving drum carriage (9).
