摘要： The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for monitoring the rate of flow and measuring the total weight of material that is passing through a flow meter under continuous flow conditions by way of pressure on a sensing cap rather than impact or any other prior art methods. The method further includes determining the rate of flow of a material, particulate, slurry or liquid during conveyance with a sensing unit placed in the path of conveyance such that the flow is measured without a loss in capacity of the conveyance. Exemplary embodiments of the present invention typically contain a flow sensing unit, an integrator and software directed to the interpretation of the data received by the sensing unit and integrator.

摘要： The Application discloses an in-line, high capacity apparatus and method for measuring a flowable component, such as seed, grain or other material. The apparatus and method generally function by measuring the pressure applied to a rounded cap by the flowing material. In certain embodiments, the apparatus and method comprise a housing containing a sensing unit, with the housing further comprising a rounded cap in mechanical communication with a load cell. In certain exemplary embodiments, the apparatus and method also comprise a processor, wherein the sensing unit is in communication with the processor so as to measure the flow rate of material passed through the housing by measuring the pressure of the material on the rounded cap. In certain embodiments, the apparatus and method allow the user to regulate the flow rate.
