Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A weighing apparatus according to the present invention comprises: a dispersion table configured to rotate an article supplied from an outside around a central axis defined in a substantially vertical direction and to convey the article in a direction away from the central axis; an acquisition unit configured to acquire a mass value of the article placed on the dispersion table; and a control unit configured to control a rotation speed of the dispersion table on the basis of the mass value. The control unit is configured to set the rotation speed of the dispersion table to a first rotation speed when the mass value is equal to or less than a first mass value, and to set the rotation speed of the dispersion table to a second rotation speed slower than the first rotation speed when the mass value is a second mass value heavier than the first mass value.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A combination weighing apparatus comprising: a dispersion table configured to rotate an article supplied from an outside around a central axis defined in a substantially vertical direction and to convey the article in a direction away from the central axis; an acquisition unit configured to acquire a mass value of the article placed on the dispersion table; and a control unit configured to control a rotation speed of the dispersion table on the basis of the mass value, wherein the control unit is configured to set the rotation speed of the dispersion table to a first rotation speed when the mass value is equal to or less than a first mass value, and to set the rotation speed of the dispersion table to a second rotation speed slower than the first rotation speed when the mass value is a second mass value heavier than the first mass value. 2. The combination weighing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the control unit is configured to set the rotation speed of the dispersion table to a third rotation speed faster than the second rotation speed when the mass value is a third mass value heavier than the second mass value. 3. The combination weighing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the second rotation speed is slower than the first rotation speed in the same rotation direction as the first rotation speed.
