  • Patent number: 7319198
    Abstract: The invention relates to a housingless load cell whose resistance and measuring accuracy can be improved with respect to environmental influences such that at least the predominant part of the surface (12) and/or the surface (14) has a transversal path, such that water hitting the body of the load cell (1) can flow off when the load cell is in a built-in state. The angle ?1 between the transversally extending part of the surface (12) and the perpendicular peripheral surface of the body (3) and/or the angle ?2 between the transversally extending part of the surface (14) and the peripheral surface of the leg (4) is respectively greater than 90° and is, more particularly between 93°- 120°. A housingless load cell comprising a compensation electronics system is provided in one of the transversal holes (7).

  • Patent number: 6860757
    Abstract: The present invention is related to a connection system for connecting weighing cells to a connection cable, wherein the connection system has a housing with at least one plug-in connector for connecting a connection cable and at least one further plug-in connector for connecting at least one weighing cell. A method for operational monitoring of weighing cells is also provided. Using the connection system according to the present invention significantly simplifies the installation of one or more weighing cells and simultaneously minimizes the susceptibility to error. The object of monitoring the operation and the installation of weighing cells is achieved in that at least the states voltage supply, loop current, polarity reversal, and cable break are indicated.
