Abstract
This invention relates to load receivers in which a solid member with a constriction supplies the opposing elastic force. The connection between this solid member and the remainder of the load receiver is produced exclusively by pairs of bolts, tightly housed in bores of the solid member; each pair of bolts co-operates moreover with a part of the load receiver which has a lower rigidity than that of the material constituting the solid member. Such load receivers can be used in weighing apparatus.
Claims8
A load receiver for use in a weighing scale or the like comprising:
- a solid member having opposed lateral surfaces and at least one constricted zone arranged to provide an elastic response to stresses;
- first and second support members, each of said support members including opposed connector portions for supporting said solid member therebetween;
- and
- attachment means rigidly connecting said connector portions to said solid member with said connector portions in fixed spaced relationship with the lateral surfaces of said solid member.
