Abstract
A device capable of monitoring the drive shaft line of an agricultural implement which may be subjected to a high degree of irregularity in a manner whereby either instantaneous loads are transmitted to a tractor operator by analog or quasi-digital indications and adapted for inclusion of adjusting and control functions having a measuring shaft with a pair of toothed wheels arranged at opposite ends thereof with differential sensors provided in cooperative relationship with the toothed wheels to sense phase displacement between the toothed wheels proportional to torque occurring at the measuring shaft. Each of the toothed wheels is supported axially outwardly thereof by a pair of journals mounted in bearings of a housing which includes a resilient member for accommodating the device to bending forces.
