Abstract: A Coriolis mass meter with two tube sections connected by a coupling extending between connection points of the tube sections wherein the coupling extends a distance between the connection points which exceeds the shortest perpendicular distance between the first and the second tube sections. The coupling facilitates less stiffness of the tubes against Coriolis oscillation and thus provides a mass meter with a stronger and potentially more reliable measuring signal.

Abstract: The invention relates to a thermal servomotor which includes two operating elements which act oppositely on an actuating bridge. The operating elements are thermally insulated from each other and each has a temperature-dependent filling and a separate heating element for differently thermally influencing the two fillings.

Abstract: The invention relates to a thermal servomotor which includes two operating elements particularly bellows boxes, which act oppositely on a valve actuating bridge. Each operating element has a temperature-dependent filling. Each operating element is connected to a relatively small container having a volume on the order of 0.2 cm.sup.3 by a capillary passage which has the effect of partially thermally insulating each operating element from the associated container. Each container contains the medium of the filling that determines the pressure and separate heating apparatus is associated with each of the two containers.

Abstract: The invention relates to a control unit for an adjustable volume pump of the type having external controls for varying the volume output thereof. A pump for driving a hydraulic motor has the output pressure thereof increase as the motor load increases. The control unit hereof is responsive to the output pressure of the pump and regulates the pump controls to maintain a substantially constant volume through output for the pump despite varying load conditions on the hydraulic motor driven by the pump.

Abstract: The invention relates to a control unit for an adjustable fluid pump or motor controlled by a servomotor. The control unit is of the type having a slide valve with a neutral blocking position with supply and exhaust positions on opposite sides of the neutral position. The neutral position provides a zero pump feed condition and the improvement resides in a construction wherein the fed amount is absolutely zero. This is accomplished with a secondary valve which has a fixed part and a moveable part which moves with the actuator. The secondary valve has fluid passages which short circuit the supply and exhaust connections of the unit over a small travel range on opposite sides of the neutral position of the actuator.
