ABSTRACT:
In a direct current electronic digital platform scale with a base and a movable cover thereover, a weight-responsive system in the base has electronic structure connected to convert cover movement to a digital weight readout. A switch is provided that is closed by cover movement to activate the electronic structure and the readout, and a convenient 9 volt battery is supported in the base and wired to supply power to the switch and electronic structure to indicate weight. To this general arrangement, an improvement in the battery support has an opening through the base to the interior and a box-like molded plastic battery receptacle is supported in the opening with the box extending into the base. A second opening through the receptacle inside the base permits the wires to connect to a battery harness inside the receptacle and a matching box or receptacle cover is latchably connected to secure the cover to the base and close off the receptacle such that the cover is flush with or coplanar with the base. This provides a convenient, inexpensive, easily assembled, common arrangement for renewing the battery in the base of the electronic platform scale from outside.
