Device for measuring forces

Abstract

Abstract A force measuring device, in particular a weighing unit, is formed in a one-piece block. First and second spaced parallelogram guides are provided with a load supporting surface. An independent bending measuring body is mounted on the block equidistant between the parallelogram guides. A force introducing unit transmits a force from a load bearing on the parallelogram guides to the bending measuring body. A pair of crosspieces connect opposite ends of the first parallelogram guide to corresponding opposite ends of the second parallelogram guide. A first cantilevered projection protrudes from one of the crosspieces equidistant from the parallelogram guides, and a second cantilevered projection protrudes from the other crosspiece equidistant from the parallelogram guides. The bending measuring body is loaded by attaching it to the second cantilevered projection while the first cantilevered projection is attached to the force introducing unit.
