Abstract

An apparatus for providing an indication of the weight of a load on a vehicle or on any part of the vehicle comprises a sensing operable between a moving part and a stationary part of the vehicle and sensing the distance between the stationary part and the moving part, a transducer unit converting any alteration of the said distance detected by the sensing means into a proportional electric property and an electrical gauge receiving the output from said transducer unit characterized in that the sensing means includes a sensor arm having two rigid end portions joined by a length of resilient material in a turn-buckle effect, with a rigid end portion being adapted to be connected between the moving part and the stationary part of the vehicle in such a manner as to detect any change in the alteration of the aforesaid distance.
