Abstract

The invention relates to a dynamic weighing system operating at high speed that can measure, under normal traffic conditions, the static load of the axles and the overall weight of the road transportation vehicle (5). This system is made up of a grid of piezoelectric sensors (1), with an optimal number of ten sensors, buried transversely in the traffic lane of the roadway, where the distance between the sensors is non-uniform and defined according to the Tchebychev formula. This grid of piezoelectric sensors (1) makes it possible to reconstruct the analog signal of the load of the axle of the vehicle (5) on the basis of the voltages generated by the sensors, the values of which are proportional to the immediate forces applied by the wheels of the axle of the vehicle to the surface of the road (6). This analog signal comprises a continuous component (static load of the axle) and a variable component (dynamic loads generated by the wheel-road interaction). The sensor grid (1) is coupled with an analog filter comprising two circuit boards. The first circuit board, which performs conditioning of the signal produced by the piezoelectric sensor, processes the signal from the sensors, which is characterized by a signal-to-noise ratio that is too low, in order to increase the readability and usability of said signal. The second circuit board, which is dedicated to processing the analog signal and measuring the static load of the axle of the vehicle (5), removes, by means of a high-pass filter, the continuous component of the analog signal reconstructed from the static load of the axle and then defines the points of the filtered signal that have a null variable component. At these points, the value of the voltage measured on the reconstructed analog signal of the axle is only the voltage of the static load of the axle. By introducing the calibrating coefficient, the value of the measured voltage relative to the load of the axle is transformed into a value in weight units.
