  • Patent number: 11828638
    Abstract: A method for operating a Coriolis mass flowmeter includes: calculating error-free oscillation signal phase differences using a first measuring channel pair with a first measuring channel phase difference; calculating averaged error-containing oscillation signal phase differences using a second measuring channel pair with a second measuring channel phase difference; determining error-containing oscillation signal phase differences using a third measuring channel pair with negligible measuring channel phase difference; determining the second measuring channel phase difference by difference formation from the averaged error-containing oscillation signal phase differences of the second measuring channel pair and the error-free oscillation signal phase differences of the first measuring channel pair; obtaining error-free oscillation signal phase differences by subtracting the determined second measuring channel phase difference from the error-containing oscillation signal phase differences of the third measuring c

  • Publication number: 20200231039
    Abstract: An operating apparatus for a vehicle component comprises an operating panel (12) as well as an electric motor (34) mechanically coupled thereto with an unbalance mass. A detector (20) can capture the contact of the operating panel (12) by a user. A sensor (46) is provided in order to set exactly the number of revolutions of the electric motor in response to the contact of the operating panel by a user. The number of revolutions of the rotor is determined via this sensor.
