Embodiment Construction

[0015]Reference will now be made in detail to specific embodiments or features, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. Generally, corresponding reference numbers will be used throughout the drawings to refer to the same or corresponding parts.

[0016]Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, an exemplary vehicle 100 is shown. The vehicle 100 may be one having a dump body 104 within which a payload 108 may be carried for transferring the payload 108 from one location to another. According to one aspect of the present disclosure, the vehicle 100 includes or is representative of a mobile machine or a construction machine having the dump body 104—and shall be hereinafter referred to as a machine 112. The machine 112 may be operable at a worksite 116, and may repeatedly traverse back and forth relative to various locations on the worksite 116. Such locations may include load locations from where the machine 112 (i.e., the dump body 104 of the machine 112) may receive the payload 10

Abstract

A system for detecting distribution of a weight of a payload in a dump body of a vehicle includes first sensors, second sensors, and a controller. The dump body is pivotable about pins to be selectively seated and titled to a frame of the vehicle. The first sensors are arranged between the dump body and the frame, and detect components of the weight of the payload exerted through the dump body when the dump body is seated relative to the frame. The second sensors are arranged correspondingly within the pins, and detect components of the weight of the payload exerted through the dump body. The controller determines a status of payload distribution in the dump body based on the component of the weight of the payload detected by the first sensors and second sensors, and generate a notification to indicate the status of payload distribution.
