ABSTRACT:
A load indicator conversion system is disclosed for converting a scale having a mechanical measuring system, such as a conventional portable beam scale, into a scale having an electronic measuring system for providing an electronic display, such as an LCD display, corresponding to the load applied to the mechanical load receiver of the scale, such as the scale platform [104], which is mechanically linked via the beam load rod assembly [110] and an s-hook arrangement [150] to a load cell transducer [1]. A single common temperature sensor is employed adjacent the load cell and the associated electronics to provide information on the variations in temperature to the microprocessor for enabling temperature compensation to take place. The mechanical linkable between the transducer and the existing mechanical load receiving member is accomplished by removing the balance beam [106] and connecting the load cell [1] to the beam load rod [110] which normally mechanically transfers the applied load from the scale platform to [104] the balance beam [106 ].
