Weighing machine with flat magnets for electromagnetic torque compensation

Weighing machine on the principle of the electromagnetic force compensation with a weighing pan, mounted with the pan on top, for the reception of the weighed stock and a movable coil, which is flowed through by current, is disposed in the air gap of a stationary permanent magnet system and generates the compensating force, characterized thereby, that the coil has approximately a rectangular shape, that the permanent magnet system consists of rectangular plates of magnetically active material with vertical direction of magnetisation above and below the longer sides of the coil and of a soft iron short-circuit whereby a horizontal compensating force results, and that means for force deflection are provided between coil and weighing pan.
