Best Answer

On some simple platform scales (for example) the test weights are fitted to a suspended plate. The weights themselves have a 'radial' slot to accommodate the suspending rod. You could also consider the weights to form a crude letter C.

In any event, the effect is that the test weights have their centre of mass approximately central, thus the suspending rod is close to vertical.
