  • Patent number: 6279381
    Abstract: A vibration transducer has a pressure sleeve fastenable directly or indirectly on a structural component part causing vibrations, a sensor element which is held at the pressure sleeve on a radial outer side with an axial pretensioning, a plurality of contact disks including at least one contact disk provided with a radial inclination so as to form a plate spring for generating the axial pretensioning of the sensor element, and a seismic mass provided with an internal thread and screwable directly to the pressure sleeve for clamping the sensor element.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 5872307
    Abstract: A vibration pick-up with a pressure sleeve is mounted by a mounting element extending through a central opening of the pressure sleeve. The pressure sleeve is clamped with an abutment surface on a component which causes vibrations. A threaded ring with a spring or a welded spring provided on the pressure sleeve holds a seismic mass under the pressure of the spring, and a detection element formed for example as a piezo-ceramic disk is arranged. The pressure sleeve has extensions with depressions which, in combination with a flanged insertion disk, form a seal labyrinth.

  • Patent number: 5798453
    Abstract: A pressure sleeve for a vibration pickup, has a body part with a central opening for a mounting element and a supporting surface to be placed on a component causing vibrations, a detecting element arranged radially outwardly on the body part with an axial pretensioning, a spring providing the axial pretensioning of the detecting elements, and an abutment provided on the body part for the spring, the abutment including at least two curved portions provided on an outer peripheral of the body part and formed by wedging of a material of the body part.

  • Patent number: 5739418
    Abstract: In a vibration pick-up having a pressure sleeve with a central opening for a mounting element and a supporting surface to be supported on a component to cause vibrations, a detection member is pre-tensioned in an axial direction with a disk spring radially outwardly of the pressure sleeve, and the disk spring is connected with the pressure sleeve by a laser welding seam over a whole periphery of the pressure sleeve.
