Abstract:
A laboratory balance (1) has a weighing pan (14) in a weighing chamber (10). A rear wall (4) separates the weighing chamber separates from a housing (11) that contains a weighing cell (12) with a load-receiving structure (13). A suspension pin (27) extends in a transverse direction of the load-receiving structure. The weighing pan is engaged with the load-receiving structure through at least one passage opening (31) in the rear wall. Two spaced-apart sidebars (29) of the weighing pan are held together by a connecting member (30). Each sidebar has an L-shaped configuration with a horizontal foot portion (55) and a vertical leg portion (56). A hook-shaped portion (64) of the vertical leg is seated on the suspension pin, through sliding contact between the suspension pin and a guiding portion (65) that extends from the hook-shaped portion away from the horizontal foot portion, sloping upwardly.
