20140069186 | ACOUSTIC FLEXURAL ORDER LEVEL SENSOR - A liquid level sensor includes a rod having a first portion and a second portion, and a wave generation unit affixed to one end of the rod. The wave generation unit generates a wave group that propagates in at least a shear order and a flexural order, and the frequency of the shear wave is based on the diameter of the rod. | 03-13-2014 |
20130147769 | TOUCH SCREEN WITH ACOUSTIC MODE REFLECTIVE AND CONVERSION ARRAYS - A touch panel includes a first plurality of echelons arranged on a substrate along a first centerline at a first angle and a second plurality of echelons arranged on a substrate along a second centerline at a second angle. A first wave generator on an end of the substrate is configured to transmit a first wave along the first centerline of the first plurality of echelons and a second wave generator on an end of the substrate is configured to transmit a second wave along the second centerline of the second plurality of echelons. First and second trapping slots are positioned parallel to their respective plurality of echelons. | 06-13-2013 |
20130118253 | ACOUSTIC ARRAY SENSOR - A level sensor includes a substrate having at least one reflective side surface, at least one wave generator on one end of the substrate configured to transmit a wave down the surface of the substrate and a plurality of reflective echelons mounted on the substrate such that each echelon is at an angle relative to reflective side surface. The reflective echelons are configured to convert a wave of a first mode in to a wave of a second mode. | 05-16-2013 |
20130047719 | ULTRASONIC LIQUID LEVEL DETECTOR - An ultrasonic sensor detects the presence or absence of a fluid in contact with the sensor and a level of fluid along the sensor. The sensor includes a first probe having a. transducer element operably connected thereto. The transducer element is configured to transmit an ultrasonic signal through the first probe, A second probe has an other than straight shape. The second probe has a transducer element operably connected thereto that is configured to receive the ultrasonic signal transmitted by the first probe to determine the presence or absence of a fluid and when present, the location of fluid along the second probe. The other than straight shape of the second probe increases the path length of the received signal to increase the resolution and accuracy of sensing the presence or absence of the fluid, and when present, the resolution and accuracy of a location along the second probe at which the fluid is present. | 02-28-2013 |
