At this time, the center portion of the sensor portion 121 of the load cell 120, a hole-shaped receiving portion 121a is formed, and the deformation of the sensor portion 121 is sensed on the inner wall surface of the receiving portion 121a and is proportional to the amount of deformation. A plurality of strain gauges (not shown) for generating electrical signals are provided.

Accordingly, in the conventional weighing apparatus 100 having the above-described configuration, when a load due to the weight of the weighed object is applied to the upper plate 130, the load is loaded through the load ball 140.

It does not change and has the effect of keeping the initially set measurement constant.

Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings, a weighing apparatus according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described as follows.

The invention according to the present embodiment relates to a platform type weighing apparatus capable of measuring the weight of various types of weighed objects having a flat plate. Specifically, the present invention relates to a weighing device capable of measuring the weight of various raw materials, finished products, and animals, and the like, and as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the weighing device 1 includes a base 10. ), The load cell 20, the top plate 30 and the load ball 40.

The base 10 is installed on the ground by a predetermined fixing means and performs a function of supporting the load cell. The base 10 preferably has a rectangular parallelepiped shape as a whole, but is not limited thereto and may have various structural shapes.

The load cell 20 is mounted on the base 10 to be deformed by the load applied from the upper plate and generates an electrical signal proportional to the amount of deformation, and the sensor unit 21, the support unit 22, and the connection unit 23. )

The sensor portion 21 is elastically deformed when a load is applied to the center of the upper surface thereof, and generates an electric signal proportional to the amount of deformation, and has a rod shape as a whole. Specifically, it has a rod shape extending from one side toward the other side, and the other side thereof can be deformed downward by forming an open end without being supported separately, and the one side is supported and fixed by the connection part 23 to be described later. To form a stage. On the other side of the upper surface of the sensor portion 21 of the load cell 20, a load ball receiving portion 21b is placed on and in contact with a load ball 40 to be described later. Specifically, the load ball receiving portion 21b has an upper surface with a predetermined radius of curvature so as to accommodate the load ball, and the lower side is coupled with the other surface of the sensor unit 21 of the load cell 20.

On the other hand, the center of the sensor unit 21 of the load cell 20 is provided with a receiver 21a, and the inner wall surface is provided with a plurality of strain gauges (not shown) for measuring the deformation of the sensor unit 21, Such strain gauges, such as strain gauges, are well known and will not be described in detail. In addition, the strain measuring device is not limited to the strain gauge, and various means can be used as a matter of course.

The support part 22 has a rod shape substantially corresponding to the sensor part 21 of the load cell 20, but is disposed below the sensor part 21 so as to face the sensor part 21, and the lower surface thereof is In contact with the upper surface of the base (10). The support part 22 is spaced apart from the sensor part 21 by a predetermined distance so that the sensor part 21 of the load cell 20 is deformed when the sensor part 21 of the load cell 20 is deformed by a load. Allow to sag down.

The support portion 22 is formed to extend longer in the lateral direction than the sensor portion 21 to more securely support the load and to evenly distribute the force caused by the load to the base. In addition, the second bolt 52 penetrates the support part 22 and is connected to the base 22 at a part of the support part 22 which extends from the other side of the sensor part. The second bolt 52 performs a function of fixing the load cell 20 on the base 10.

The connection part 23 is integrally connected to one side of the sensor part 21 and one side of the support part 22, respectively. Specifically, the upper portion of the connecting portion 23 is integrally connected with one side of the sensor portion 21, and the lower portion of the connecting portion 23 is integrally connected with one side of the support portion 22, and the sensor portion 21 and The support part 22 may be maintained at a predetermined distance, thereby deforming the sensor part 21. As a result, in the present invention, the load cell 20 has an overall "c" shape, which is different from the "a" shape of the prior art. In the present embodiment, when a load is applied to the other side of the sensor portion 21 by the load cell 20 having a “c” shape and an eccentric load is applied, the lower end of the connecting portion 23 remains the base 10 as it is. Pressing does not settle the upper surface of the base 10, but is integrally connected with the support 22, it is possible to distribute the force evenly to the upper surface of the base 10 as a whole. This not only enables stable load measurement, but also has an effect that the boundary condition and the initial condition do not change even when the weight of the measured object is repeatedly measured.

Meanwhile, a cable 60 for fixing a signal detected by the strain gauge in the sensor unit 21 of the load cell 20 to the display unit (not shown) is fixedly installed at one side of the connection unit 23. On the other hand, the connecting portion 23 is fixed to the base 10 in the state that the bottom surface is in contact with the top surface of the base 10, the first bolt 51 is used for this purpose. That is, the first bolt 51 is connected to the base 10 through the connecting portion 23 to fix the connecting portion 23 to the base 10.

The upper plate 30 is positioned above the load cell 20 and is subjected to a load by a measurement object located above the load cell 20. The upper plate 30 accommodates a load ball 40 near each of four corners of the upper plate 30. The load ball cap 31 which can be provided is provided. The load ball cap 31 is to perform a function that allows the load ball 40 to be described later to be maintained at a predetermined position of the upper plate as the lower surface has a predetermined radius of curvature. On the other hand, the portion of the load ball cap 31 in contact with the load ball 40 is to form a predetermined radius of curvature.

The load ball 40 is installed between the upper plate 30 and the sensor unit 21 so as to transfer the load applied to the upper plate 30 to the sensor unit 21 of the load cell 20. The load ball 40 is spherical and is accommodated in the load ball receiving portion 21b and the load ball cap 31 formed on the other upper surface of the sensor portion 21 of the load cell 20.

Since the load ball 40 is spherical, and the contact portion located in the upper and lower portions of the load ball 40 has a spherical surface having a radius of curvature larger than the radius of curvature of the load ball 40. Even if the load acts on the load cell 20 slightly out of the load action position of the load cell 20 when the object to be measured enters or exits the top plate, the load ball is in the desired position. Can be aligned so that the load of the workpiece is applied to the desired position of the load cell 20.

Hereinafter, the operation and effects of the weighing apparatus according to the present embodiment will be described.

In the platform type weighing apparatus 1, when the weighed object is placed on the upper plate 30, the load of the weighed object is distributed into four pieces and acts on the weighing device 1, respectively.

When the load of the weighed object acts on the upper plate 30 of the weighing device 1, the load is transmitted to the load ball 40 along the load ball cap 31 provided in the lower portion of the upper plate 30. Then, the load transmitted to the load ball 40 acts on the sensor portion 21 of the load cell 20 by the load ball receiving portion 21b. Specifically, the load acts on the other side of the sensor unit 21 of the load cell 20.

When a load acts on the intended position of the load cell 20, the sensor part 21 of the load cell 20 is elastically deformed because only one side thereof is fixed by the connection part 23. That is, the other side of the sensor unit 21 of the load cell 20 is deformed while sagging downward, in which an electrical signal proportional to the amount of deformation is output to the outside. That is, the strain cage (not shown) in the receiver 21a provided at the center of the sensor unit 21 of the load cell 20 detects the deformation and outputs an accurate electrical signal. At this time, the load applied to the sensor portion 21 of the load cell 20 is evenly transmitted on the upper surface of the base through the lower surface of the connecting portion 23 and the lower surface of the support portion 22 and eventually the upper surface of the base 10 Since the force does not concentrate intensively on any part, even if the weight of the measured object is repeatedly measured, a part of the upper surface of the base 10 does not settle, and thus the boundary condition of the sensor is changed to decrease the characteristics of the sensor. Nothing happens. In addition, there is no case that the first set measurement value does not change, so there is an advantage that a constant measurement result can be obtained at all times.

On the other hand, the platform-type weighing apparatus 1 according to the present embodiment has been described that the load cell 20 is fixedly coupled to the base by the first bolt 51 and the second bolt 52, but is not limited thereto. It is also possible that the bottom and the base of the connecting portion and the support can be welded to each other and can be coupled by a variety of other fixed coupling means.

Although the present invention has been described in detail by way of examples, the present invention is not necessarily limited to these embodiments and modifications, and may be variously modified and implemented within the scope of the technical spirit of the present invention.
