To aid weight distribution with heavy loads.
counterweight carried by an elevator cable to balance the weight of an elevator cab; the counterweight travels upward when the cab travels downward, and vice versa; usually composed of steel plates stacked within a frame.
one advantage is that the counterweight can be moved to balance the weight of the mass of what it is working with or carrying
B. flexable coupled counterweight
The counterweight offsets the weight of the long wooden and or metal barrier that blocks the path of the car- makes for lighter lifting of the barricade by hand or motor.
When you step into an elevator and close the door, you had passed through two doors and are now standing in a box (or the elevator car) inside a vertical passageway (called the lift shaft). One door is in the walls of the floor that you got off, and the other door is part of the car itself. Inside the shaft are hoisting cables attached to the top of the car. The cables run over a sheave (pulley) connected to an electric motor at the top of the shaft. The other end of the cables is connected to a heavy steel weight called a counterweight. When the car goes up, the counterweight goes down; when the car goes down, the counterweight goes up. How the counterweight reduces to a minimum the power needed to operate the elevator ... Weight of counterweight = Weight of the car + (about) ½ of its maximum passenger load So when the elevator operates, it needs power only to lift the weight of the extra passengers in the car; the rest of the weight is balanced by the counterweight.

it reduces the amount of work needed to lift the bar
The counterweight balances the load in the lift-shaft.
The load center of a forklift vehicle has little to do with its lifting capacity; this is determined by its structural engineering including the counterweight and pivot point. The lifting capacity of all forklift vehicles is stated on a tag on the vehicle, and is available from the manufacturer, and is also stated in the operation and safety procedures for the specific vehicle. The load center only tells you where you can place the load on the forks.
A forklift is a truck that is used to lift and transport materials. it's a vehicle that has a mast and two forks mounted on the front for the purpose of lifting heavy objects.
