First Claim
Patent Images
1. A holding fixture for a weighing scale, the weighing scale including a transport device which transports objects to be weighed by the weighing scale, the holding fixture including:
- (a) a holding fixture structure adapted to be mounted in an operating position between the transport device and a weighing cell for the weighing scale, the holding fixture structure in the operating position being mounted so as to transmit the weight force to be detected from the transport device to a force introduction area of the weighing cell through which the weighing cell experiences the weight force to be detected;
(b) a drive unit arranged in the holding fixture structure such that the holding fixture structure and drive unit together form a module, wherein when the holding fixture structure is in the operating position the module is connected exclusively (i) to the weighing cell within the force introduction area and (ii) to the transport device, with at least one motor included in the drive unit adapted to drive the transport device; and
(c) wherein the weighing cell experiences the weight force to be detected in the direction of an imaginary force introduction axis passing through the force introduction area.

Abstract
A holding fixture for the drive unit of a transport device that transports objects to be weighed is arranged between the transport device and the weighing cell which detects the weight. Thus the weight force to be detected by the weighing cell is transferred to the weighing cell by the holding fixture for the drive unit.

14. A weighing scale including:
-
(a) a weighing cell including a force introduction area through which the weighing cell experiences a weight force to be detected, the weight force to be detected acting in the direction of an imaginary force introduction axis passing through the force introduction area; (b) a transport device which transports objects to be weighed by the weighing cell; (c) a holding fixture structure mounted between the transport device and the force introduction area of the weighing cell, the holding fixture structure being mounted so as to transmit the weight force to be detected from the transport device to the weighing cell; and (d) a drive unit including at least one motor adapted to drive the transport device, the drive unit being arranged in the holding fixture structure so that the drive unit and holding fixture structure together form a module, the module being connected exclusively (i) to the weighing cell within the force introduction area and (ii) to the transport device. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18)
