Abstract
The present invention relates to a load receiver. This load receiver comprises a fixed upright integral with a frame, a loaded upright integral with a load-carrying plate and two arms hinged on the uprights to form therewith a deformable parallelogram, and two uprights and the two arms together forming an integral structure, provided with constrictions which define the hinges of the deformable parallelogram, and a load transducer provided to detect the deformation of the parallelogram under the effect of a load applied on the plate. The load receiver is of use notably for commercial balances.
