  • Publication number: 20180372522
    Abstract: A flow measuring device comprising a measurement signal-generating sensor element and a metal connection element, especially one manufactured in a generative manufacturing method, for connecting the measurement signal-generating sensor element with an opening or sensor nozzle of a tube, where the connection element is connected with a pressure-bearing component comprising a sleeve and a wall, which extends over the entire cross section in parallel projection in the direction of a longitudinal axis of the sleeve, wherein the pressure bearing component has at least one electrical cable guide and a potting compound, wherein the potting compound fills the sleeve partially or completely, and wherein the pressure bearing component is arranged in the opening or in the sensor nozzle of the tube radially behind the connection element with reference to the longitudinal axis of the tube.

  • Publication number: 20180313679
    Abstract: A thermal flow measuring device comprising a sensor with a metal sensor housing, the sensor housing including at least a first and a second pin sleeve extending from a base, each pin sleeve having a longitudinal axis and an end face, the two pin sleeves defining a connecting axis, wherein in the first pin sleeve a first heater is arranged and in the second pin sleeve a temperature sensor is arranged, wherein the sensor housing includes at least a third pin sleeve, having a second heater, and a flow obstruction embodied such that the third pin sleeve is arranged in a first flow direction at least partially in the flow shadow of the flow obstruction, wherein the first flow direction extends at an angle of 80-100° to the connecting axis and lies on a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axes of the first and second pin sleeves.

  • Publication number: 20180306620
    Abstract: A thermal, flow measuring device comprising a sensor with a metal sensor housing, which includes a cap with a lateral surface and an end face, wherein the sensor housing has at least first and second pin sleeves, which protrude starting from the end face, wherein the sensor housing has a first heater in a first of the two pin sleeves and a temperature sensor in a second of the two pin sleeves for ascertaining a temperature of the medium; wherein the end face of the cap is divided at least into a base area and at least a first planar area inclined relative to the base area by an angle, wherein a second heater is arranged on an inner surface of the cap in the region of this first area.

  • Publication number: 20180299307
    Abstract: The application discloses a thermal, flow measuring device comprising: a sensor including a metal sensor housing having a hollow body and a base; and at least first and second pin sleeves protruding from the base. In a first of the two pin sleeves a first heater is provided and in a second of the two pin sleeves a temperature sensor is provided for ascertaining a temperature of a medium. At least two elongated elements extend with at least the same length as the pin sleeves starting from the hollow body in parallel with the two pin sleeves. On a cutting plane perpendicular to the sensor axis another axis extends that is perpendicular to the connecting axis and wherein the separation of the elongated elements in their course parallel with the axis lessens in certain regions.
