Track tension monitoring using acceleration and transmission speed sensor inputs

ActiveUS12643620B2Electric unknown time interval measurementSoil-shifting machines/dredgersStopwatchTrackway
Monitoring track tension of track-enabled work machines using work machine acceleration and transmission speed sensors is provided. When a speed change of a work machine is detected, a timer is started. When an acceleration or deceleration of the work machine is detected, the timer is stopped. Elapsed time between the start of the speed change and the detection of acceleration or deceleration may indicate an amount of time required for taking up slack or sag in a work machine track. If the time required for taking up the slack or sag is excessive, an indication may be received that the track is too loose. If time required for taking up the slack or sag is minimal, an indication may be received that the track is too tight. The determination of the time required for taking up the slack or sag may indicate that tension in the track requires adjustment.
