Abstract:
Disclosed is an ultrasonic transducer mounting assembly comprising an ultrasonic transducer element, a transducer housing inside which the ultrasonic transducer element is arranged, and an accommodation unit inside which the transducer housing is clamped in a clamping section. The disclosed assembly is characterized in that the clamping section comprises at least one bearing that has at least one rolling element, in particular at least one ball bearing that has at least one ball, for acoustically decoupling the transducer housing from the accommodation unit.
Abstract:
An arrangement for transmitting and/or receiving an ultrasonic, wanted signal in a measured medium, comprising a vibration decoupling element for securing at least one ultrasonic transducer in a containment, characterized in that the vibration decoupling element has a platform for securing the vibration decoupling element to a sensor nozzle or to the containment and a second interface for securing an ultrasonic transducer. Between the second interface and the platform a vibration decoupling structural element is arranged, which structural element is embodied as a solid body, which has one or more interfaces with other elements of the vibration decoupling element, especially with the second interface for securing the ultrasonic transducer and/or the platform, and wherein the structural element (11, 39, 55, 75) has an as much as possible spherical-, ellipsoidal-, toroidal- or polyhedral shape.
Abstract:
An ultrasonic transducer for an ultrasonic flow measuring device, comprising an electromechanical transducer element, which is prestressed against an ultrasonic window of the ultrasonic transducer by a suitable structure, wherein a first surface of the electromechanical transducer element faces the ultrasonic window, and wherein a second surface of the electromechanical transducer element lying opposite the first surface is divided into a plurality of segments, which are galvanically connected with the suitable structure for prestressing.
Abstract:
An ultrasonic transducer for an ultrasonic flow measuring device, comprising a first housing part and a second housing part. The second housing part is axially guided in the first housing part and is so biased relative to the first housing part that, in a first state of the ultrasonic transducer, a first axial stop of the second housing part rests on a first axial stop of the first housing part, wherein, by applying, counter to the bias, a predetermined force on a second axial stop of the second housing part, the second housing part is axially shiftable, so that, in a second state of the ultrasonic transducer, the first axial stop of the second housing part is moved out of the first state.
