Abstract
Electronic weighing apparatus is provided including a force transmitting lever (17) pivotally suspended from a crossbar (33) that is connected for adjustment relative to the apparatus frame (9). An adjusting screw (45) adjusts the vertical position of the bar relative to a pillar portion (31) of the frame, and a fastening screw (37) serves to rigidly connect the crossbar with the frame following the crossbar adjustment. In this manner, the pivot axis of the transmitting lever is so adjusted as to minimize deflection of the no-load point owing to the inclination of the weighing apparatus.
