Abstract
A housing for a weighing apparatus includes a bottom plate on which the weighing apparatus can be installed or which comprises part of the weighing apparatus. A surrounding elastic sealing element is located on the underside of the housing such that when the housing is placed in an installed position relative to a carrier element on which the weighing apparatus is connected, the bottom plate is sealed in an outside annular circumferential area of the underside of the bottom plate with respect to the surface of the carrier element. In the installed position, side walls of a housing upper part encompass the surrounding side wall of the bottom plate such that a lower front surface of the side walls impinges on an area of the sealing element which protrudes beyond the outside circumference of the bottom plate. This impingement seals the housing side walls with respect to the bottom plate.
