  • the torsion rod arrangement described is applied to one wheel or axle of a vehicle which can be used to provide a reasonably accurate representation of the propo ⁇ ion of the load acting at the mounting point from which the overall load on the vehicle can be extrapolated.
  • separate torsion measuring units can be provided for each of two wheels (such as two rear wheels) on opposite sides of a vehicle to provide two outputs to enable the load to be determined and also to establish the existence of an out-of- balance loading needing correction before the vehicle is used on the public highway.
  • the output of the transducer or transducers can be any suitable output of the transducer or transducers.
  • the transducers will serve to indicate a periodic weight oscillation.
