摘要： A load sensor bucket for equipment is operable in a loading mode and a metering mode. In the loading mode, the bucket is disposed to load material. In the metering mode, the bucket is tilted upward with the load sensors oriented to form a vertical metering column that is substantially perpendicular to a ground surface. In the metering mode, the bucket orients a center of mass of the material within the vertical metering column so that the load sensors can measure the bucket load. The measurement can be conveyed to an operator of the machine, who can then determine real time whether the bucket is loaded to a target amount of material. A related method can include detecting a load parameter, such as stress/strain, via the load sensors and displaying output in a cab.

摘要： A rail car mover attachment includes a remote removably mounted in a machine cab and including an emergency actuator to abruptly activate a rail car brake, a lock pin actuator to move a lock pin relative to a rail car latch in a rail car coupler, and/or a controlled stop actuator to selectively activate a rail car brake. The attachment can include an onboard compressor, such as a high volume compressor. The attachment can include a disconnect unit that self-activates rail car brakes if the attachment loses power or detaches from equipment. The attachment can include a light showing the attachment is charged and running or showing a fault. The attachment can include a laterally extending indicator arm deployable when the rail car coupler is fully attached to the rail car, and that extends beyond a rail car width so that a spotter can visually verify the coupler status. A related method of use also is provided.
