Abstract
Disclosed is an automatic weighing apparatus in which a plurality of weighing mechanisms, each having a load cell composed of a strain gauge attached to the upper and lower beams of a rectangular main body, are arrayed on the circumference of a circle concentric with the weighing apparatus, each weighing mechanism being operatively associated with a correspnoding weighing hopper for receiving articles to be weighed. Each weighing mechanism is so arranged that the beams of the load cell lie parallel with a tangent line drawn to the circumference of the circle at the location of the mechanism, whereby the load cell can be inspected and repaired with facility and the overall apparatus reduced in size.
