Abstract
There is provided a load detector including a beam-type load cell which is supported on a support base in a cantilever manner, and a platform connected to the beam-type load cell. The platform includes a main body on which a subject is to be placed and a slope having a first end, which is connected to the main body, the slope being configured to guide the subject to the main body. The slope is configured to swing between a first position in which a second end of the slope is in contact with a placement surface on which the load detector is placed and a second position in which the second end is separated from the placement surface. The platform further includes a lever connected to the first end of the slope and positioned above the main body.
