ABSTRACT:
A combination mechanical-hydraulic weighing device having a platform assembly within which is located a single hydraulic load cell, a unique hydraulic fluid path, and a unique platform leveling mechanism. A flexible hose interconnects the platform assembly with a weight indicator assembly attached to a convenient wall at eye level. The gage indicator is moved by a hydraulic pressure actuated Bourdon tube which can be calibrated accurately for any specific weight up to three hundred pounds. The hydraulic load cell and indicator are sized to complement each other and the hydraulic pressure in the system does not exceed fifty pounds per square inch.
