摘要: The fluid flow meter (10) includes a flexible membrane (35) formed of a flexible material and containing an apparatus for providing the membrane (35) with resilience for undulation. The membrane (35) is mounted in the fluid flow path such that the pair of faces simultaneously define with the housing fluid impermeable seals (67) at the least two different locations along the flow path. The membrane (35) flexes so as to permit passage of discrete quanta (62a) of fluid, each having a known volume. The flow meter (10) generates electrical signals corresponding to flexure of the membrane (35), and the electrical signals are monitored for determining a fluid flow rate.

摘要: The fluid flow meter includes a flexible membrane clamped between upstream and downstream centering springs to enhance membrane behavior and extend the fluid flow measurement range by automatically adaptively moving the apparent clamping points in response to flow rate. Adaptation of the clamping span alters the relative effective excess membrane length within the clamping span to adapt membrane behavior to flow rate. The upstream centering spring includes a long leaf spring pair cantilevered into the clamping span from the clamping region. The long leaf spring pair is sandwiched within a shorter leaf spring pair active at higher flow rates and formed as part of a guide extending to the chamber surface. The membrane ends are narrowed upstream and downstream of the clamping span to reduce flutter while the upstream intake is split into even laminar flows. The fluid direction is substantially changed at the outlet to minimize membrane distortion.
