摘要:
A multi-point cell type weighing machine has a plural number of scale cells set on a floor to support a table and to output weight signals indicative of weights measured thereby of a target object placed on the table. One or more floor vibration detecting cells are set on the same floor and output floor vibration detection signals indicative of the vibrations of the floor. The weight signals are corrected on the basis of vibration components of the floor vibration detection signals. A standard weight is placed at a larger plural number of places on the table than there are scale cells and output sensitivity ratios among the scale cells are calculated from outputted values from the scale cells, and the weight signals are further corrected on the basis of the output sensitivity ratios. These weight signals are added together and the weight of the target object is obtained from the added signal. A plurality of floor vibration detecting cells may be set on the floor, each near different one of the scale cells, or they may be set anywhere on the floor and a mode of floor vibrations may calculated from their outputs. A single floor vibration detecting cell may be set between the scale cells. The table is supported by the scale cells through elastic pieces such that only vertical forces are communicated to the scale cells.

A weighing machine, such as a combinational weighing machine, has scale cells and a plurality of dummy cells installed on the same floor. The scale cells output weight signals corresponding to the weights of objects being loaded. The mode of vibrations of the floor is detected from dummy signals from the dummy cells, vertical displacements of the floor at the positions of the scale cells are calculated, and their effects are eliminated from the weight signals. Those of the scale cells not selected after a cycle of combinational calculations can be used as dummy cells in the next cycle. A memory device may be provided to store preferred combinations of such scale cells not selected that may be used for this purpose. Effects of the floor vibrations can be eliminated more accurately if the differences in sensitivity among the cells due to physical characteristics of the individual cells and/or due to the different loads on them can be taken into account either by a feedback calculation or by a formula.
摘要:
A weighing apparatus has a scale cell and a dummy cell, both similarly structured and cantilevered. A load to be measured is applied to the free end of the scale cell and a standard weight is attached to the free end of the dummy cell. Analog electrical signals from these cells are converted to digital data. The effect of the standard weight is removed from the digital data from the dummy cell to obtain the effect of external vibrations which effect is multiplied by a suitable coefficient dependent on the applied load and subtracted from the digital data from the scale cell.
摘要:
A weighing device has not only a scale cell which weighs an object and outputs a weight signal indicative of the measured weight value but also a vibration-detecting load cell for detecting the vibrations of the floor to which the scale cell is set such that the effects of the floor vibrations can be subtracted from the weight value detected by the scale cell. The vibration-detecting load cell has attenuation-adjusting members adhesively attached to strain-generating parts of its load-sensitive element such that the attenuation constant of the load cell is thereby increased at least by a factor of 2. The usable dynamic range of the load cell can thus be increased while the load cell is kept compact. Butyl rubber members can be used for this purpose.

The present invention is to provide a platform scale including a plurality of component force damping devices assembled therein for making high precision weighing. The platform scale for weighing an object to be weighed by supporting a support member that supports the object to be weighed by a plurality of load detection units 301,302 includes at least four component force damping devices 321˜324, each comprising an arrangement of a plurality of needle bearings disposed in parallel and a pair of opposed plates for sandwiching the arrangement of the needle bearings 63 so that the pair of plates make a relative movement in a direction of the arrangement of the needle bearings. The four component force damping devices 321˜324 are in contact with the support member at four locations that form a rectangle. Directions of the relative movement of any two component force damping devices locating at the same side of the rectangle are different, while directions of the relative movement of any two component force damping devices at diagonal locations of the rectangle are identical. Even in case of bending of the support member in any direction, the component force damping devices are able to release the horizontal component force due to such bending.

A load cell is constructed with several strain gauges. Each of the strain gauges are formed with a meandering conductive portion on a substrate or base member. Portions of the meandering conductive layer defines a predetermined tab ratio. The base member is formed with a predetermined amount of filler and the tab ratio is pre-determined such that the creep characteristic of the strain gauge is substantially zero in a load cell having a generally low rated load.

In order to increase both the weighing accuracy and the weighing speed of a weighing apparatus, a delta.multidot.sigma analog-to-digital converter (4) having a cut-off frequency higher than that of an analog filter (3) is connected with the output of the analog filter (3). Also, in order to perform a quick drift correction of an amplifier (2), the analog filter (3) is selectively switchable so as to perform a filtering function during a weighing mode and to perform a buffering function during a correction mode correcting means (52) is provided for storing the digital signal from the delta.multidot.sigma analog-to-digital converter (4) as a drift signal (df) during the correction mode and for providing a corrected digital weight signal (d2) by subtracting the drift signal (dr) from the digital weight signal (d1) obtained from the delta.multidot.sigma-type analog-to-digital converter (4) during the weighing mode.
摘要:
A multiple input signal high-speed analog-digital converter circuit for digitizing, by means of an A/D converter, an output signal from a multiplexer which successively delivers multiple input signals applied thereto. Two sample/hold circuits which receive the output signal from the multiplexer repeatedly sample and hold the signal, and a changeover switch keeps one of the sample/hold circuits on hold while the other sample/hold circuit samples the output signal from the multiplexer. While one of the sample/hold circuits is holding the signal, the other sample/hold circuit is sampling another signal so that the A/D conversion time of multiple input signals is capable of being reduced by the sampling time.
