摘要:
An electronic scale system having a plurality of electronic scales each having a device for entering and storing merchandise data with respect to many articles of merchandise. The stored merchandise data are automatically transmitted successively to the electronic scales in which the data are registered. The electronic scale system also includes a first memory for totalling and storing data such as prices obtained from the electronic scales according to codes, and a large-capacity memory for totalling and storing totals stored by the first memory for each prescribed period of time, so that the data can automatically be totalled. The electronic scale system further includes a computer for preparing merchandise data to be loaded in the electronic scales, and a transfer device for transferring the merchandise data prepared by the computer to the electronic scales either on-line or off-line.

This invention relates to a coin counter, and more particularly to a coin counter using a weighing scale to count and display the total sum of coins and to print out the sum at need, the counter also being capable of checking whether or not the total sum of coins placed on the weighing scale is included within a range between preset upper and lower limits.
摘要:
An electronic scale for weighing an article and displaying and/or printing the weight, price and other data of the article. The scale includes a key input unit for registering and recalling article data. The key input unit has preset keys indicating article names, alphabetical letters, and other indicia. The keys are operated to register and recalling article names and other data which are used frequently.

A weighing system for computing the prices of articles purchased by customers includes cards (4) containing codes for discriminating the customers. The card (4) is inserted in a card reader (16) attached to an electronic scale (1), and the prices of articles weighed by the electronic scale (1) are totaled for each of the codes of the cards (4).
摘要:
A method of selecting the operating mode of an electronic scale, and an electronic scale using said method, wherein either a computing mode or a checking mode is selected and operation is executed based on the selected mode. The computing mode is a mode wherein an arithmetic operation is performed based on the weight of articles sensed by a weight sensor and on items of data input from an input device having a plurality of keys, and wherein a display device displays information relating to the articles, which information includes the result of the arithmetic operation. The checking mode is a mode wherein the operation of the electronic scale is checked for abnormality. The method includes steps of sensing the state of each key of the input device at the time that power is introduced to the electronic scale, selecting the computing mode to enable execution of operation in said mode when it is sensed in the first step that no key of the input device is in the ON state, and selecting the checking mode to enable execution of operation in said mode when it is sensed in the first step that any key of the input device is in the ON state.
