Abstract
In a liquid quantity detecting apparatus, a torsion bar is mounted on a stationary structure to support a container thereon in such a manner that the torsion bar is twisted at a torsional angle in dependence upon the weight of liquid stored within the container. An electric detector is provided to electrically detect the torsional angle of the torsion bar so as to generate an output signal indicative of the quantity of the stored liquid based on the detected torsional angle.
