20090235759Measuring transducer of vibration-type - The measuring transducer includes at least one measuring tube communicating with a line connected during operation for conveying a medium to be measured, and a support element oscillatably holding the at least one measuring tube. Additionally, it is provided that the support element contains at least two passageways, via which the at least one measuring tube communicates with the line, and that the at least one measuring tube is affixed, especially releasably, at least one end to the support element by means of a screwed-fitting at one of the passageways. Alternatively or in supplementation thereof, it is further provided that the at least one measuring tube is, at least in part, made of cold-strengthened, for instance cold-stretched or autofrettaged, material. As required, the measuring transducer can further include at least two measuring tubes communicating with the line for conveying the medium; each of these two measuring tubes is to be connected to an inlet-side distributor element and an outlet-side distributor element. In such case, at least one of the two distributor elements can be embodied as an integral component of the support element, so that the support element can be kept, at least in the area of this at least one distributor element, free of materially bonded, joined locations, especially free of solder, braze or weld connections. The measuring transducer of the invention is especially provided also for applications in which the medium to be measured acts with a pressure of more than 500 bar, especially over 700 bar, on the measuring tube.09-24-2009
20100031755Measuring transducer of a vibration-type - A measuring transducer comprises a measuring tube vibrating at least at times during operation, having a wall thickness (s) and at least one oscillation sensor, especially an electrodynamic oscillation sensor, for producing at least one primary signal of the measuring transducer representing vibrations of the measuring tube. In the measuring transducer at least one securement element, especially a metal securement element, fixedly encircling the measuring tube essentially along a circumferential line thereof and having a total width (B), for holding a component of the oscillation sensor, especially a magnet coil or a permanent magnet, on the measuring tube is provided. The securement element has an essentially rectangular outer perimeter with a projection protruding out therefrom by a height (h) and serving for holding the component of the oscillation sensor. The projection has a width (e), which is smaller than the total width (B) of the securement element.02-11-2010
20100037707Measuring transducer of vibration type - A measuring transducer of vibration type for registering, on the basis of the Coriolis principle, at least one measured variable of a medium flowing through a pipeline. The measuring transducer includes: a measuring tube, which is connectable with the pipeline via an inlet and an outlet, wherein the measuring tube includes a first measuring tube arc and a second measuring tube arc; an oscillation exciter for exciting oscillations of the measuring tube arcs; at least one oscillation sensor for registering resulting oscillations of the measuring tube arcs; and a transducer housing surrounding the measuring tube arcs. The measuring tube arcs are elastically coupled to the transducer housing. In this way, a robust and reliable measuring operation is guaranteed, which is little influenced by oscillatory in-couplings.02-18-2010
