Abstract of the Disclosure Housing/mounting apparatus for a data gathering system inserted into a checkout counter and including a weighing scale and an optical scanner supported thereon for scanning bar code labels and defining an upper weighing surface of the scale comprises a base supported within the checkout counter for supporting the data gathering system with the scale being secured to the base. A perimeter enclosure is secured to the base and houses the optical scanner. The scale includes a spider load receiving plate supported within the perimeter enclosure through an aperture in its floor. Locator pins and corresponding holes stably position the optical scanner on the scale load receiving plate and the optical scanner thus positioned is sized such that clearance gaps required for proper operation of the weighing scale are defined between the optical scanner and the perimeter enclosure. Leveling and fastener or clamping devices are incorporated into the base to facilitate installation and maintenance of the system. By incorporating these devices into the mounting base, the system can be positioned, leveled and secured in place after the base is installed in a checkout counter to eliminate iterative operations. Scanner height adjustments are performed and limits on scale travel are defined by devices incorporated into the weighing platter adding further to the versatility and ease of installation/maintenance of a data gathering system incorporating the housing/mounting apparatus.
