Abstract
A weigh scale includes a flexure beam disposed between a platform and the base. Load transmitting devices operate to deflect the beam as a function of the load placed on the platform. Overload protection is provided for the beam to restrict the amount of beam deflection to maintain it within its elastic limits to thereby prevent yielding of the beam.
