Abstract: A pressure sensor is provided with two supporting bodies (10,11) with plane supporting surfaces (12,13) between which a hose (14) is compressed or flattened. For measuring the internal pressure of the hose (14), pressure transmission means (17 or 22) is displaceable in a gap (16) that is arranged at a supporting body (10 or 11) adjacent to the compressed of flattened hose (14). The pressure transmission means (17 or 22) presses against the plane surface of the flattened-hose (14) and is supported on a force sensor (19). Thus, the deformation forces generated upon compressing the hose are eliminated for the measurement of pressure.

Abstract: The pressure sensor comprises two supporting bodies (10,11) with plane supporting surfaces (12,13) between which a hose (14) is flattened. For measuring the internal pressure of the hose (14), a web (17) displaceable in a gap (16) is arranged at a supporting body (10), said web pressing against the plane surface of the flattened hose (14) and being supported on a force sensor (19). Thus, the deformation forces generated upon compressing the hose are eliminated for the measurement of pressure.

Abstract: The ultrasonic sensor comprises an ultrasonic transmitter (11) and an ultrasonic receiver (12) between which an accommodating device (13) for a hose (14) is arranged. The hose is flattened between stamps (21, 22) thus being pressed against rigid concave forming areas (15, 16) where the hose bears in a gap-free manner upon the housing wall (17). The sound velocity in the housing (10) is approximately as large as in the material of the hose (14). In the liquid contained in the hose the sound velocity is considerably smaller. Parallel sound waves are refracted at the interface between hose material and liquid such that the sound waves converge. By concentrating the sound energy into the hose and onto the ultrasonic receiver (12) a high-energy received signal is generated. When air bubbles exist in the liquid, the received signal is attenuated.
