Smart livestock, which combines information and communication technology (ICT) with livestock, can be said to be an effective solution to existing livestock problems such as productivity improvement, odors, and diseases. So far, it has hardly been universalized; thus, it is necessary to develop automation devices to reduce labor by localizing automation devices to expand the distribution of ICT technology to farms, and to advance precise specifications and health management technology using biometric information. Weighing scales currently being used in livestock farms are to prevent the spread of diseases by diagnosis and preparation for AI and other diseases in advance, using information on the growing weight of duck breeding. However, accurate values cannot be obtained due to poor breeding conditions. In this paper, we developed a separate data transmission system kit for the weighing scale and placed the sensor on top of the weighing scale so that the sensor wire is not affected by pollutants or ducks on the floor. A display function was provided, and a method of receiving and analyzing the serial port data of the weighing device, and then transmitting them to the data collection server was implemented.

For the design and maintenance of highways and road structures, the statistical data are needed for the vehicle, especially heavy truck crossing. So far, static weighing has been used but it needs fixed station, crews, and it takes a lot of time. Also truck mix and headway distances cannot be obtained. Weigh-In-Motion system uses the sensor as a weighing scale and collects the axle weights, axle distances, vehicle types and etc. without stopping or slowing down the vehicle. Objectives of the study is make a determination of WIM Sensor for Implementation of U-Overloaded Vehicle Regulation System.

새로운 방식의 결정성장용 직경 자동제어장치를 개발하였다. 이 장치는 금속선의 장력 변화를 주파수로 변환시켜 감지하는 무게센서로서 신호전달 및 전력공급 체계가 무접촉 방식이므로 노이즈가 극소화되며 따라서 안정성, 정밀성이 종래의 센서에 비해 10배 이상 증대된다. 이 장치에서 무게센서 부분은 1) 금속선, 2) 시그날을 형성하는 Sinusoidal Wave Generator, 3) 형성된 시그날의 진폭을 조정하고 안정화 시켜주는 자동 증폭조절회로, 4) 정류장치 및 신호 변환기, 5) 시그날을 관리, 제어하는 PC 보드 등으로 구성하였고, 그 외에 2개의 검증용, 무게보정용, 성장제어용 등 4개의 프로그램을 작성하였다. 이 장치는 표준편차 값이 $\pm0.10g$(1회/sec 측정 때), 분해능이 $5{\times}10^{-5}$이고, 최대 200kg까지 결정을 성장시킬 수 있으며, 또한 압력조건은 진공조건부터 200 atm 이하, 온도조건은 $350^{\circ}C$ 이하에서 일관성, 재현성 있는 작동이 가능했다. 단결정 자동직 경제어에 필요한 정확도를 확보하기 위해 온도범위 $100^{\circ}C$가 $\pm0.025^{\circ}C$로자동 조절되도록 '시그날 Divider'를 제작하였다. 이 무게 센서를 $Y_3Sc_2Ga_3O_{12},\;Er-Y_3Sc_2Al_3O_{12},\;Bi_{12}GeO_{20}$ 등의 단결정 성장에 응용하였으며 매우 양호한 결정을 성공적으로 성장시킬 수 있었다.

The yield is basic and necessary information in precision agriculture that reduces input resources and enhances productivity. Yield information is important because it can be used to set up farming plans and evaluate farming results. Yield monitoring systems are commercialized in the United States and Japan but not in Korea. Therefore, such a system must be developed. This study was conducted to develop a yield monitoring system that improved performance by correcting a previously developed flow sensor using a grain tank-weighing system. An impact-plated type flow sensor was installed in a grain tank where grains are placed, and grain tank-weighing sensors were installed under the grain tank to estimate the weight of the grain inside the tank. The grain flow rate and grain weight prediction models showed high correlations, with coefficient of determinations (R2) of 0.9979 and 0.9991, respectively. A main controller of the yield monitoring system that calculated the real-time yield using a sensor output value was also developed and installed in a combine harvester. Field tests of the combine harvester yield monitoring system were conducted in a rice paddy field. The developed yield monitoring system showed high accuracy with an error of 0.13%. Therefore, the newly developed yield monitoring system can be used to predict grain weight with high accuracy.

The study suggests the possibility of using internet of things for a dietary intake survey. The development scenario of the dietary intake survey was composed of a weighing sensor for measuring food weight, bluetooth module for communicating through smart-phones, and smart-phone application. The weighing sensor attached to the bottom of utensils was designed to measure the weight of initial food & food eaten, and the results were transmitted to the smart-phone through the bluetooth module. The exclusive application in the smart-phone displayed the results of the amount of food intake, calorie intake, and eating rate. Through this system, subjects could continuously monitor their dietary intake & eating rate and recognize their actual eating environment, which leads to prevent overconsumption of food intake & form balanced eating habits. Based on this system, we need to consolidate and develop a weight control program.

The FEM technique was applied to simulate the change of stress characteristics for various structural parameters and loading positions of the load cell. The output voltage of the load cell was then computed to compare with the manufactured load cell. The tendency of the stress variations of the load cell was well agreed with the basic formula of the single fixed. beam. Also, the stress characteristics according to the change of loading positions showed respective featured results as different structure. The calculated output voltages of the load cell were very close to those of the real manufactured ones.

Mining, construction, and other special vehicles for heavy use are designed to work under high-performance and off-road working conditions. The driving and executive mechanisms of the support structures and superstructures of these vehicles frequently operate under high loads. Such high loads place the equipment under constant risk of an accident and can jeopardize the dynamic stability of the machinery. An experimental investigation was conducted on a refuse collection vehicle. The aim of this research was to determine the working conditions of a real vehicle: the kinematics of the waste container, that is, a hydraulic rotate drum for waste collection; the dynamics of the load manipulator (superstructure); the vibrations of the vehicle mass; and the strain (stress) of the elements responsible for the supporting structure. For an examination of the force (weight) on the rear axle of a heavy vehicle, caused by its own weight and additional load, a universal measurement system is proposed. As a result of this investigation, we propose an alternative system for continuous vehicle weighing during waste collection while in motion, that is, an on-board weighing system, and provide suggestions for measuring equipment designs.

콘베어 계량대 위에서 이동간 계량은 A/D변환된 데이터의 신속하고 안정된 처리가 요구된다. 또한 중량의 측정은 다른 센서와 달리 여러 가지 고려요소가 많이 있다. 본 연구에서는 자동계량 콘베어 설비에서 보다 신속하고 안정된 계량데이타를 얻기 위한 신호처리 방법을 제안하다. 먼저 콘베어 계량대에서의 로드셀중량센서신호의 특성을 분석하고 시뮬레이션과 실측으로 고유진동주파수를 구하여 저역 통과필터를 설계하였으며, A/D변환 회로를 구성하여 A/D변환된 데이터의 안정화처리 알고리즘을 싱글칩 마이크로프로세서를 이용하여 구현하였다. 제안된 방법을 이용하여 실제 제작하여 실측해 본 결과 계량 속도와 A/D 변환의 안정성에서 만족스러운 결과를 얻었다.

The deflection and null balance methods are used for precision force measurement in the precision industry. Since both methods are based on deformation, the performance of the load cell mechanism is important. In this study, the design variables were obtained via the free body diagram of a lever-linked Roberval mechanism (combined with a flexible hinge link and a Roberval mechanism), and the design characteristics were analyzed according to the weight method. Based on the design characteristics, the optimal design was conducted according to the weight method and FEM was used to verify its reliability.
