OUTRIGGER PAD ASSEMBLY HAVING A FORCE SENSOR, AN OUTRIGGER ASSEMBLY AND A LIFTING VEHICLE

摘要

An outrigger pad assembly (22) includes a base (30) having a bottom surface for engaging an underlying support surface and a top surface opposite to the bottom surface, a force sensor (32) mounted to the base, and an interface body (32). The interface body includes a lower cavity (44) at least partially defined by a first inner sidewall (48), an upper cavity (46) at least partially defined by a second inner sidewall (50), and a coupling body (40) having a latch configured for selective with an outrigger jack. The force sensor is disposed in the lower cavity in sliding contact with the first inner sidewall such that the interface body is movable relative to the force sensor. The outrigger pad assembly may be part of an outrigger assembly of a lifting vehicle.
