  • Publication number: 20230048331
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides an Anderon meter for cryogenic environment including a housing; a control arm installed on an inner circumference of the housing rotatably relative to the housing, and including a pressing portion; and a clamp including a contact portion on a side and an assembly portion on an opposite side, wherein the contact portion is in contact with the pressing portion so that the contact portion is pressed by the pressing portion, and the assembly portion is coupled to an inner circumference of the bearing by interference fit, wherein the pressing portion presses the contact portion by the control of an amount of relative rotation of the control arm and the assembly portion is coupled to the inner circumference of the bearing by interference fit to determine friction characteristics between the inner race of the bearing and the assembly portion.
