Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0123774A1] 1. Method for the identifying of wagons running in a train formation, in particular a rapidly travelling one, with the use of an arrangement for the measuring of the wheel loads with at least one measuring point, wherein also the speed of the train formation is determined, characterized thereby, that strain gauges, which are fastened at the web of a rail at the level of the neutral fibre and oriented orthogonally to the neutral fibre, are used as measuring point, that - on a wheel running over the measuring point - the then arising measurement peak of the measurement signal is triggered at a threshold valuehat the time interval between two measurement peaks on the running of two successive wheels over the measuring point is measured each time on the threshold value being fallen below or exceeded and this measured time interval is added to half the difference of the measured time intervals between the threshold value being fallen below and being exceeded at each of both the successive measurement peaks, that the result is processed together with the speed into an axle spacing and that the wagon concerned is identified by this axle spacing or by several successive axle spacing.
