  • Dosing and weighing device and method for determining the weight of a product in a dosing and weighing device
    Patent number: 11193813
    Abstract: A dosing and weighing device (1) comprising a housing (2) having an inlet opening (3) and an outlet opening (4), and a weighing surface (5), which is operatively connected to at least one weight sensor (7), a mechanism (9) for detecting a pressure difference between a pressure in the housing upstream and a pressure in the housing downstream of the weighing surface (5). Via a control unit (8), the detected pressure difference is used to correct the weight detected by the weight sensor (7).
