Abstract: A load estimation device includes: an air spring having a diaphragm that expands and contracts due to supply and exhaust of air, and configured to support a support body in a liftable manner; an auxiliary support portion configured to support the support body separately from the air spring; a displacement sensor configured to measure a length of the air spring; a pressure sensor configured to measure an internal pressure of the air spring; a temperature sensor disposed together with the air spring, and configured to measure a temperature of the air spring; and a calculation unit configured to calculate a spring load supported by the air spring based on measured results of the displacement sensor, the pressure sensor and the temperature sensor.

Abstract: A weight estimation device for a vehicle includes a storage unit storing a weight calculation information indicating a correspondence between an internal pressure value of an air spring supporting a vehicle body and a vehicle height serving as a height of the vehicle body from a base, a measured value acquisition unit acquiring a measured internal pressure value and a measured vehicle height, an internal pressure value calculation unit calculating a corrected internal pressure value of the air spring by deducting or adding a corrected value from or to the measured internal pressure value in a case where the measured internal pressure value is greater or smaller than the internal pressure value of the weight calculation information which corresponds to the measured vehicle height, and a weight calculation unit calculating a weight of a supported body, including the vehicle body, based on the corrected internal pressure value.
