Descripción

Scales having a fixed fulcrum and a movable counterweight whose distance along a horizontal graduated beam is moved to balance an object suspended from a point, usually on a pan or hook, set off-center; for scales of similar form but with a fixed counterweight and movable fulcrum, use "desemers."
