  • Patent number: 10658996
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for rendering ultrasonic signals audible that is characterized in that the temporal dynamic range of the ultrasonic signal is maintained. The amplitude profile of the ultrasonic signal picked up in the time domain remains unaltered. The frequency shift from the ultrasonic range to the audible range is possible up to a factor of 32 using the present invention.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9016137
    Abstract: For flow measurement a device with a compact housing and a fixable hinged cover has a measuring channel for inserting a flexible tube such that it becomes deformed in a defined way. The measuring channel extends over the entire width of the housing. A measuring cell arranged in the center of the measuring channel has four ceramics I, II, III, IV, integrated in a sound-decoupled way and facing each other diagonally in pairs, which are placed in lateral parts on the left and on the right of the measuring cell, and a base plate limiting the measuring cell downwards in the direction of an installation space for an electric evaluation system, wherein the base plate also limits the remaining area of the measuring channel from below.

  • Publication number: 20140298888
    Abstract: The invention relates to an ultrasonic transducer and to a gas bubble sensing device with two ultrasonic transducers. In order to be able to detect gas bubbles with different sizes reliably, at least one of the ultrasonic transducers comprises a plurality of segments that can be operated independent of each other.
