  • Publication number: 20060277978
    Abstract: A viscosity sensor system for measuring the viscosity of a liquid and at least one additional property of the liquid using a piezoelectric viscosity sensor device that is situated completely in the liquid that is to be measured, and that has: electrical contact points for an electrical controlling of volume oscillations on its surface, these contact points being resistant in relation to the liquid; first electrical supply lines that are resistant in relation to the liquid and that are connected on the one hand with a control/evaluation electronics unit situated outside the liquid and on the other hand with the contact points on the surface of the viscosity sensor device; and a second sensor device for acquiring the at least one additional property of the liquid, this second device being provided on the surface of the viscosity sensor device and having electrical contact points on the surface of the viscosity sensor device for an electrical controlling, these electrical contact points being resistant in relati

  • Patent number: 6988405
    Abstract: A device for measuring fill levels, in particular liquid fill levels, is provided, which device has a capacitive sensor and, connected to the sensor, a unit for analyzing a measuring signal from the sensor. The device for measuring fill levels may be manufactured cost-effectively and enables highly accurate measurements. The sensor has at least two base components including finger-shaped electrodes projecting therefrom. The electrodes are situated offset from one another, and the base components are fixed in position with respect to one another by at least one fixing element, the fixing element being situated outside the overlapping area of the electrodes.
