   ROLL COVERS

Roll covers are used to cover the exposed portion (outboard of the vehicle tires) of the rotating roller during vehicle operation, a function manually controlled using pushbuttons on the Drivers Pendant or Operator Interface Computer. Employed as an added pedestrian safety measure, these covers prevent a pedestrian from walking on the spinning rollers. Each roller cover assembly consists of a series of anodized aluminum segments that are connected to two strands of roller chain. The chains are driven by an AC gear motor, which moves each cover independently to the edge of the vehicle tire and then reverses to allow some running clearance between the tire and the roller cover.

   CALIBRATION SYSTEM

This system permits the user to dead weight the load cell torque measurement system using a balanced 120" long support arm and certified weights. A hinged floor plate section provides access to the motor attachment points. This type of mounting for the system allows the dead weighting to be completely accomplished from within the test cell without having to enter the pit area.

   CENTERING ROLLS

The optional wheel centering system consists of synchronized retractable rollers for positioning the vehicle's driven axle at the top of the roll, a function manually controlled using pushbuttons on the Drivers Pendant or Operator Interface Computer. The wheel centering system is driven by an AC motor through a bevel gear reducer. Worm gear screw jacks and coupled shafts are used to ensure synchronized motion of the centering rollers. End-of-travel limit switches are used to prevent inadvertent damage to the system by limiting travel in both directions. When activated, these centering rolls move up and straddle the tire, positively moving the vehicle as needed to center it on the rolls. With the vehicle held in this position, the operator can safely install the vehicle restraint system. Another feature of the vehicle centering system is its ability to completely lift the vehicle off the dynamometer roll. This is useful at the start of a new test or a personnel shift change to run a coastdown check of the dynamometer. Without this capability the vehicle must be physically removed from the dynamometer and then reinstalled which is time consuming.
