ABSTRACT:
A weigh hopper installation (10) includes a rigid support frame (14) and a hopper (16) having a center of gravity (42) situated laterally adjacent to the frame. Substantially all the weight of the hopper is supported through a load cell (54) carried by a rod (50) between the frame and the hopper, preferably in tension. Restraint members (62, 64, 74) are connected laterally between the frame and the hopper, for preventing horizontal movement of the hopper while permitting vertical movement of the hopper.
