A device for measuring a force, such as a weighing device, has a force resolving plane inclined relative to the horizontal and a force measuring means for measuring the component of the force effective in the resolving plane. The measuring system includes at least two elements having surfaces in the resolving plane or parallel thereto, one of which is a support element rigidly secured to a frame on which the device is mounted, and the other of which is displacably disposed relative thereto in the resolving plane and is connected through the force measuring means to the frame. At least one elastic intermediate layer is disposed between the faces of the elements inclined relative to each other such that the force measuring means operates substantially independently of the path of the load or force to be measured. |
