Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a small-sized, lightweight pocketable scale by providing a load detector and a display device nearby the surface of a card type member and providing a weight arithmetic circuit and a display device driving circuit internally. CONSTITUTION:The strain gauge 2 and display device 3 are provided nearby the surface in a card type main body 1. The main body 1 incorporates a signal processing circuit 4a which receives and processes the output signal of the strain gauge 2, a weight arithmetic circuit 4b which calculates weight according to data from the circuit 4a, a display device driving circuit 5, and a battery 6. Then a body to be measured such as postal matter is clipped and held by an elbow part 7. Then a grip 8 is gripped in a hand to hold the main body 1 horizontally. Consequently, a front end part 1a deflects corresponding to the weight of the body to be measured and its strain is detected by the strain gauge 2. A detection signal is converted by the circuit 4a into a digital signal and weight is calculated by the circuit 4b and displayed on the display part 3.
