Abstract
A weighing device is equipped with a first overload protection mechanism and a second overload protection mechanism. The first overload protection mechanism includes a first support portion disposed on a fixing member and a first section disposed on a connecting member. The second overload protection mechanism includes a second support portion disposed on the fixing member and a second section disposed on the connecting member. When a first load acts on a weigh hopper, the first support portion supports the first section from below. When a second load greater than the first load acts on the weigh hopper, the second support portion supports the second section from above at the same time that the first support portion supports the first section.
