Abstract: A method is disclosed for producing a connection between a measuring tube and at least one flange, e.g., in the case of a Coriolis mass flowmeter. In order to ensure reliable connection of the components in this case, the measuring tube can be inserted at one end over a portion through a flange bore, such that it projects out of the bore on the other side, and that the projecting end be flared out over the sealing face of the flange.

Abstract: A circuit breaker and/or earthing switch are disclosed wherein a rotatable spindle nut, which is mounted in a spindle housing, displaces a spindle in a translatory manner, thus displacing contact elements of the switching device. The spindle actuates a contact pin that is configured in a contact carrier by a connection yoke that is common to all phases or poles and an isolating bar for each phase or pole.

Abstract: A process media transfer unit for an industrial robot including a first part for attachment to a first robot part, and a second part for attachment to a second robot part. The first and second parts being coaxially arranged about a common axis and separated by an airgap to provide an endless rotation relative to each other.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method for fixing an attachment part on the measurement tube of a Coriolis mass flowmeter at at least two connection points. According to the disclosure, the measurement tube and the attachment part are soldered to one another in a single hard-soldering process at the same time at the at least two connection points.

Abstract: A device for fastening an attachment to a measuring tube of a Coriolis mass flowmeter, comprising a clamping part, which can be pushed onto the measuring tube and can be pressed against the measuring tube by clamping means, the clamping part being formed in the manner of a slotted conical hollow screw, which interacts with a corresponding cone nut as a clamping means in such a way that, when the cone nut is screwed onto the clamping part, the inwardly directed radial force created as a result presses the clamping part against the measuring tube.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a cohesive connection between a tube and a built-in housing, in particular for fixing a measuring tube in the housing of a flowmeter, according to the preamble of patent claims 1 and 4. In order to ensure a reliable connection between the components in this case so that a reliable measurement using the Coriolis mass flowmeter is possible, the invention proposes that ring or tube sections are first of all applied to the measuring tube at least one of said connection locations and are connected to the measuring tube by means of a hard solder connection and, in the region of the ring or tube sections which have been soldered on, the latter are then welded to the housing or housing flanges.

Abstract: A coriolis mass flow pick-up is disclosed, which can be inserted into a pipeline and has a fluid to be measured flowing through it during operation. The pick-up includes a single measuring pipe, which has an inlet end and an outlet end, an exciter arrangement, which causes the measuring pipe to carry out at least first bending oscillations, and at least two sensors for sensing movement of the measuring pipe. At least two elongate connection parts, which extend freely essentially parallel to the measuring pipe and whose central axes are displaced from the axis of the measuring pipe, are connected on the input side and the output side to the measuring pipe. The connection parts carry out second bending oscillations in the event of an oscillating measuring pipe, with the result that, by the second bending oscillations of the connection parts being superimposed by the oscillations of the measuring pipe, bending forces and torsional moments at the inlet and outlet ends of the measuring pipe are compensated.

Abstract: A description is given of a Coriolis mass flowmeter, with a measuring pipe oscillating in coupled flexural and torsional modes. Mechanically connected to the measuring pipe is an attachment which is formed rotationally symmetrically with respect to an axis of rotational symmetry and can be induced to undergo the torsional oscillations of the measuring pipe. The attachment is a multipart body comprising hollow profile rails and/or beams with a closed hollow cross section. The axis of rotational symmetry of the attachment runs parallel to the straight line (8) (central axis) defined by the centre points (4a, 6a) of the cross-sectional areas (4, 6) of the inlet and outlet of the measured section, or coincide with this line.

Abstract: A method for driving a thrust body with a bidirectional linear solenoid drive having at least in each case one first actuator and one second actuator includes the steps of providing the at least one first actuator with at least one coil and a yoke and applying force alternately to the thrust body by interacting the first actuator with at least one armature ring. The armature ring is rotated with the second actuator to thereby axially shift the thrust body by the rotation of the armature ring. The thrust body is, then, shifted axially and is subsequently fixed in position with the thrust body being shifted in steps in this way until it has reached its respective final position. Also provided is a configuration for carrying out the method.
