ABSTRACT:
A portable device for weighing objects is provided in which the object being weighed is supported against gravity by a self-aligning tension spring and a supporting frame. The device utilizes an indicator which carries no substantial part of the load, but senses the position of the lower, free end of the resilient measuring means, through the use of an activator probe, self-aligned with the resilient measuring means. The device can further provide high resolution to one part in one thousand while minimizing the inherent non-linearity in the no-load portion of its spring deflection curve.
