    摘要: An ultrasonic measuring device for measuring properties of a medium located in a measuring tube includes a measuring tube wall and a measuring tube lumen. The measuring tube wall has at least one acoustic region designed to be excited into Lamb oscillations. A pair of ultrasonic transducers are located in a coupling region and are designed to excite Lamb oscillations or to detect Lamb oscillations in the respective coupling regions. The device also includes an electronic measuring/operating circuit. A supporting device is designed to support at least parts of the acoustic region against media pressure, and at least one supporting member is designed to absorb forces generated by media pressure. The supporting member has at least one decoupling device which is designed to reduce ultrasonic input from at least one associated acoustic region into the supporting member, and vice versa.

    摘要: An ultrasonic transducer for an ultrasonic flow measuring device, comprising a first housing part and a second housing part. The second housing part is axially guided in the first housing part and is so biased relative to the first housing part that, in a first state of the ultrasonic transducer, a first axial stop of the second housing part rests on a first axial stop of the first housing part, wherein, by applying, counter to the bias, a predetermined force on a second axial stop of the second housing part, the second housing part is axially shiftable, so that, in a second state of the ultrasonic transducer, the first axial stop of the second housing part is moved out of the first state.
