    Abstract: A system for estimating a payload includes a torque sensor, a grade detector, and a machine acceleration sensor. A controller compares the angle of inclination to its threshold, compares the rate of change in the angle of inclination to its threshold, and compares the machine acceleration to its threshold. An estimate of the payload is determined based upon the output torque from the prime mover, the angle of inclination of the machine, and the unloaded mass but only if the angle of inclination of the machine is greater than the angle of inclination threshold, the rate of change in the angle of inclination is less than the inclination rate of change threshold, and the machine acceleration is less than the acceleration threshold.

    Abstract: A method implemented by a programmable controller to estimate the payload mass in a bed of a moving hauling machine. The method includes determining whether the machine is at a steady acceleration and grade, estimating transmission torque, calculating axle torque at at least one of the ground engaging elements, calculating force at said ground engaging element, determining the acceleration of the machine, calculating mass of the machine with the payload, adjusting the calculated mass of the machine with the payload based upon an estimated machine mass and rolling resistance, and providing an estimate of the mass of the payload.

    Abstract: A method implemented by a programmable controller in a hauling machine having an engine, moveable ground engaging elements, and a bed actuable by at least one hoist cylinder controlled by an operator hoist control device, determines whether the bed is empty by determining a position of the operator hoist control device, applying a gain dependent upon the position, applying an integrator over time to provide a resultant hoist figure, comparing the resultant hoist figure to a hoist minimum constant, and, if the hoist figure is less than or equal to the hoist maximum constant, concluding that the bed is empty.

    Abstract: A programmable controller implemented method of determining occurrence of bed loading events in a hauling machine. The method includes determining if the machine was stationary for a period, if the bed is in a loading position, other factors contributed to movement of the machine, calculating a bounce amplitude based upon a filtered machine accelerometer signal, comparing the amplitude with a constant reflecting a minimum amplitude, and identifying a loading event for an amplitude greater than the constant, if the machine has been stationary for a given period, the bed in a loading position, and no other factors caused machine movement.
