ABSTRACT:
A weighing system has at least one weighing platform receiving a moving load to be weighed, the platform includes at least one scale member connected to at least two approach members, and including at least one ramp member connected to at least one of the approach members. An interface is communicatively connected to the scale member. A controller is connected to the interface. And, a power supply is connected to the interface. Also disclosed is a weighing scale having a rigid pad having a top surface for receiving the load and a bottom surface. A plurality of load cells are included, each having at least two top surfaces and at least two bottom surfaces. A top surface of each load cell is connected at a predetermined location to the bottom surface of the pad. A foot member contacts the ground and is connected to a bottom surface of the load cell. Further disclosed is a load cell having a body defined by first and second sides. The body has a peripheral region of a predetermined thickness and a central region of a predetermined thickness which is less than that of the peripheral region. The central region is inset on each side with respect to the peripheral region. The central region is adapted for contact with a force.
