WEIGHING DEVICE AND METHOD FOR OPERATING SAME

The invention relates to a weighing device, comprising - a vertically deflectable load receiver (10), - a pivotally mounted first transmission lever (20), comprising a first lever arm (201) on the load receiver side and a first lever arm (201) which is remote from the load receiver and is coupled to a sensor, - the sensor, comprising a first immersion coil assembly (41) which comprises two sensor elements that can be moved relative to each other in the vertical direction, namely a magnet (411) and a coil (412), and which engages onto the first lever arm (202) remote from the load receiver, wherein the first transmission lever (20) is provided with first astaticity means which produce an astatic input for an effective system rigidity in a first astaticity direction. The invention is characterized in that a pivotally mounted second transmission lever (30) is additionally provided, comprising a second lever arm (301) on the load receiver side and a second lever arm (302) remote from the load receiver. The second transmission lever (30) is provided with astaticity means which produce a second astatic input for an effective system rigidity in a second astaticity direction opposite the first astaticity direction, and force flow distributing means are additionally provided for variably distributing a force acting on the load receiver (10) to the two transmission levers (20, 30).
