An automatic weighing apparatus has a plurality of weighing mechanisms, each having a load cell composed of a strain gauge attached to upper and lower beams of a rectangular main body. The weighing mechanisms (15) are arrayed on the circumference of a circle concentric with the weighing apparatus, each weighing mechanism being operatively associated with a corresponding weighing hopper for receiving articles to be weighed. Each weighing mechanism is so arranged that the said beams of the load cell lie parallel with a tangent to the circle at the location of the mechanism. Such an arrangement can facilitate inspection and repair of the load cells, and reduction of the overall size of the apparatus. |
