Abstract
A device for measurement and control of the conditions of stability of a vehicle, in particular an industrial vehicle, comprising at least one load cell (10), which is integrated inside the lower pin of each articulated joint or steering 'pivot' (11) of each steering axle (12) of the vehicle, at the level of the wheel hubs (18), so that a structural component of the front and rear steering axle of a four wheel vehicle is a measurement instrument; an electronic control instrument (14), by means of appropriate control software, processes signals (P1-P4), appropriately amplified, transmitted by each load cell (10), so as to calculate the stability of the vehicle in real time and, furthermore, provide a command to disable certain vehicle functions, in the event that the stability values are beyond a certain pre-established safety range.
