Abstract
A collapsible weighing scale includes a support structure and a plurality of platform segments displaceable between extended and collapsed positions. A load sensing apparatus is mounted on the support structure and outputs a signal of the full weight of an associated object on the scale. An output device receives the signal and communicates the full weight sensed by the scale in appropriate units.
