  • Patent number: 9726559
    Abstract: The invention relates to a load cell for weight measurement with a load beam which has an overload protection. In order to achieve a cost-effective manufacture, it is provided that the overload protection has a bar, running parallel to the center plane of the load beam, which freely engages in a recess on the movable force application side of the load beam, with the result that there is an upper and a lower air gap between the bar and the force application side. In the case of an overload, the upper or the lower air gap is bridged and the force application side comes to rest against the bar, with the result that no further movement of the force application side relative to the stationary side of the load cell is possible.
