The aim of the invention is to provide a scale which is for mobile use and which has a simple structure but protects the sensitive parts of the scale against excess stresses and jolts during transportation. To this end, the inventive electronic scale (1) consists of a weighing device (20) comprising a measuring body (21), said measuring body comprising a part for introducing a force (23) and a base part (27); a support element which is supported on the measuring body (21) and a load-bearing element (7) which is connected to the part for introducing a force (23) belonging to the measuring body (21). The inventive electronic scale also has at least two housing parts (2, 2') which are supported on the support element in such a way that they can pivot and which surround the weighing device including the measuring body (21) when in a transportation position in order to protect the same, ensuring that no forces can be introduced into the measuring body (21). The housing parts can be pivoted into an operating position in order to operate the scale (1). In this position, the load-bearing element is freely accessible and forces can be introduced into the measuring body (21). |
