ABSTRACT:
A floor scale for measuring body weight having a scale base, a foot platform, an electronic digital weighing system for producing a digital display indicative of the weight applied to the scale platform, and a power switch for controlling the application of power to the electronic digital display system. A weigh cycle control is provided including a kick bar mounted on the scale base at one side of the scale for movement in a generally horizontal direction and adapted to be actuated by the foot of a person before mounting the foot platform, a momentary contact type switch mounted on the scale base for actuation by the kick bar and a timer operated by the momentary contact switch for maintaining the application of power to the electronic digital weighing system for a preselected time interval sufficient for a weighing operation. The electronic digital display system can be of the type in which the weight sensor produces a series of pulses correlative with the weight applied to the foot platform of the scale and a counter for counting the pulses, and the weigh cycle control can include means responsive to operation of the momentary contact type switch means for also resetting the counter.
