A weighing apparatus for a vehicle having tines in which a ramp is mounted on each tine in front of and in spaced relation to a weighing load bearing plate. The ramp and the confronting weighing load bearing plate are not mechanically joined. Below each weighing load bearing plate are load cells for emitting changes in signals representative of the weight of a load on the weighing load bearing plates. As the load advances toward the weighing load bearing plates, the ramps attenuate excessive forces and shock resulting from the load advancing onto the weighing load bearing plates. As a consequence thereof, the load cells are not subject to the excessive shocks or forces of an advancing load. |
