Abstract

A hydraulic excavator includes a vehicular body, a boom bottom pin supported by the vehicular body, a boom rotatably coupled to the vehicular body by the boom bottom pin, a boom top pin attached to a tip end of the boom, an arm rotatably coupled to the boom by the boom top pin, an arm top pin attached to a tip end of the arm, and a bucket rotatably coupled to the arm by the arm top pin. The computing device calculates a weight of a load conveyed by a work implement based on any two equilibrium equations of an equation of moment equilibrium around the boom bottom pin, an equation of moment equilibrium around the boom top pin, and an equation of moment equilibrium around the arm top pin.
