Abstract
Abstract An apparatus for gathering measuring values obtained when weighing unit loads, the value obtained for each weighing being accumulated in a separate receiver means, which comprises a hollow, downwardly open frame forming an internal space in which a support connected to the frame 1 is provided. The support extends transversely across said space to form a passageway for a load carrier which is movable in said space to the inner wall of the frame, which load carrier encloses said support and is adapted to receive a known pressure-sensitive member for delivering a load measuring value for registration in said receiver means.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
193 words
Apparatus for gathering measuring data obtained when weighing unit loads, the data obtained for each weighing being accumulated in a separate receiver means (17), which apparatus comprises a load transmitter (10) including a hollow downwardly open frame (1) comprising vertical walls (26) and a substantially horizontal beam (27), said open frame (1) having formed therein an internal space (2); a support (3) rigidly connected to frame (1) and disposed In said internal space (2), said support (3) extending transversely across said space to form a passageway (25) for a load carrier (4) movable in said space (2) to the inner wall of frame (1); said load carrier (4) enclosing said support (3), and a pressure-sensitive member (5) borne on said support (3) which member, upon load application of the load carrier (4) is exposed to pressure between said support (3) and said horizontal beam (27) and delivers a measuring value for registration in the aforesaid receiver means (17) the load transmitter being connected to an intermediate link (9) at the top by means of an axle (31) and at the bottom connected to a load carrier (4) by means of an axle (32).
Claim 2
Dependent Claim

Apparatus for gathering measuring data obtained when weighing unit loads, the data obtained for each weighing being accumulated in a separate receiver means (17), which apparatus comprises a load transmitter (10) including a hollow downwardly open frame (1) comprising vertical walls (26) and a substantially horizontal beam (27), said open frame (1) having formed therein an internal space (2); a support (3) rigidly connected to frame (1) and disposed In said internal space (2), said support (3) extending transversely across said space to form a passageway (25) for a load carrier (4) movable in said space (2) to the inner wall of frame (1); said load carrier (4) enclosing said support (3), and a pressure-sensitive member (5) borne on said support (3) which member, upon load application of the load carrier (4) is exposed to pressure between said support (3) and said horizontal beam (27) and delivers a measuring value for registration in the aforesaid receiver means (17) the load transmitter being connected to an intermediate link (9) at the top by means of an axle (31) and at the bottom connected to a load carrier (4) by means of an axle (32).
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
40 words
The apparatus defined in claim 1, wherein said intermediate link (9) is rotatably supported by a lift means through a substantially horizontal axle (8), said axles (8) and (32) being parallel to each other and being perpendicular to axle (31).
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
63 words
Apparatus as defined in claim 1, wherein the frame (1) of load transmitter (10) is suspended from vertically extending connecting members (30), in the form of two lugs provided on each lateral edge of the frame (1) of load transmitter (10) and having holes for receiving axle journal (31), which journal is supported by said intermediate link (9) provided above the load transmitter.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
48 words
Apparatus as defined in claim 1, wherein the load carrier (4) for connection to a suspended load comprises axle journal (32) rotatably supported in a hole (32''), to which axle journal there is connected the suspension means for the load in the form of a rotary table (13).
