The present invention provides a combination weighing apparatus capable of correctly detecting, without contact, without being influenced by side walls provided on a transmission path for transmitting the articles to a weighing unit or structures above the combination weighing apparatus, and for the purpose of appropriately controlling the supply of articles to a weighing unit, a physical quantity for determining the weight of the articles loaded on the transmission path. A combination weighing apparatus (10) is provided with a plurality of radial feeders (30) for transmitting articles to a weighing hopper (50) and with a camera (60). The radial feeders (30) have side walls (31a) that follow the article transmission direction, extend upward, and enclose the sides of article transmission paths. The camera (60) detects, without contact, a physical quantity for determining the weight of articles loaded on the radial feeders (30). The camera (60) detects the physical quantity from the upper parts of the radial feeders (30) in an obliquely downward direction from upstream in the article transmission direction to downstream in the article transmission direction. |
