  • Patent number: 11441930
    Abstract: Disclosed is a tube configured to conduct a fluid flowing through the tube in a specified flow direction and for this purpose comprises a tube wall, which encloses a lumen of the tube, and an interference body, which is arranged within the tube but is nevertheless connected to the tube wall at an inner face of the tube wall facing the lumen. In the tube according to the present disclosure, the tube wall has a maximum wall thickness of more than 1 mm and at least two mutually spaced sub-segments with a respective wall thickness that deviates from said maximum wall thickness, wherein the sub-segment is positioned upstream of the interference body in the flow direction, and the sub-segment is positioned downstream of the sub-segment in the flow direction.

  • Patent number: 11428553
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a customer-specific sensor on the basis of a standard sensor using a sensor development package, the sensor development package comprising at least the standard sensor and a customization unit, and the method for producing the customer-specific sensor having at least the following steps: customizing the customization unit to an application designated by a customer; introducing the sensor development package into the designated application of the customer so that the customer can test the sensor development package in the application; testing the sensor development package introduced into the designated application, by the customer; and producing the customer-specific sensor.

  • Patent number: 11312514
    Abstract: The present disclosure recites a method for time controlled carrying out of a filling process including steps of beginning a first flow measurement before or during the start of a filling of a first container, starting the filling of the first container at a first point in time, and ending the filling of the first container at a second point in time, wherein the second point in time is predetermined by a set, first time interval. The starting and ending steps are repeated for filling a second container. The method also includes ending the first flow measurement and ascertaining a total flow of the preceding fillings, comparing an actual value ascertained from the total flow a predetermined, desired value, and-adapting the first time interval based on the comparing step. An apparatus according to the present disclosure includes a control setup for time controlled fill amount control and a flowmeter.

  • Publication number: 20200340836
    Abstract: The tube is used to conduct a fluid flowing through the tube in a specified flow direction and for this purpose comprises a tube wall (110), which encloses a lumen (100*) of the tube, and an interference body (120), which is arranged within the tube but is nevertheless connected to the tube wall at an inner face of the tube wall facing the lumen. In the tube according to the invention, the tube wall has a maximum wall thickness (smax) of more than 1 mm and at least two mutually spaced sub-segments (100-1, 100-2) with a respective wall thickness (s110-1, s110-2) that deviates from said maximum wall thickness (smax), wherein the sub-segment (100-1) is positioned upstream of the interference body (120) in the flow direction, and the sub-segment (100-2) is positioned downstream of the sub-segment (100-1) in the flow direction.
