Said means comprises a rotary catch which is mounted on the base frame and is automatically operable to engage first beneath the upper frame and then beneath a load-sensitive bar of the weighing apparatus in response to successive upward movements of the upper frame to and beyond its transport position and load-engaging members mounted on and slidable relative to the upper frame, which members are automatically operable through the medium of cams on the base frame and a pivoted flap on the upper frame to connect the load to and disconnect it from the base frame when the upper frame reaches its transport and weighing positions respectively.</p> |
