Abstract
A level measuring device for measuring the level of a liquid in a container. The device has an elongated support which extends approximately horizontally into the container and is fastened at a fastening end 6 to a wall 3 of the container while its other resting end 3 rests under initial spring pressure against the bottom 2 of the container. On the support there is fastened a carrier 12 on which a mechanical-electrical transducer is disposed and on which there is pivotally mounted a lever 13 which bears a float 14 and acts on the transducer. The support is developed as an elastic spring in the region between its fastening end 6 and the carrier 12.
Description
The present invention relates to a level measuring device for measuring the level of the liquid in a container, the device having an elongated support which extends approximately horizontally into the container and is fastened at one fastening end to a wall of the container while with its other resting end rests under initial spring pressure against the bottom of the container. The device includes a carrier which is fastened to the support and on which there is affixed a mechanical-electrical transducer on which there is pivotally mounted a lever which bears a float and controls the transducer.
In such level-measuring devices it is known to develop the support in two parts and to connect these two parts together by a joint. A spring, has one end fastened to one part of the support connected to the housing and acts with its other end on a second part of the support in such a manner that a free end of the second part of the support is held with initial stress against the bottom of the container.
This application of the free end of the support against the bottom of the container is maintained even if the bottom of the container sags due to a filling of the container with liquid. In this way, the mechanical-electrical transducer, regardless of any sagging of the bottom of the container, remains substantially always in the same position relative to the bottom of the container. This construction of the measuring device prevents degradation of a measurement of the level measuring device due to varying amounts of sag in the bottom of the container.
An attempted construction of a level measuring device has suffered a disadvantage in that it consists of a plurality of parts, so that assembly is very expensive and the risk of defects is great.
It is therefore an object of the invention to provide a level measuring device of the aforementioned type which consists of only a few parts and permits a precise determination of the level within the container.
According to the invention, the support is developed as an elastic spring in a region between its fastening end (6) and a carrier (12) or between the carrier (12) and the resting end (5).
By this development, the support, the spring and the joint are formed by a single part of simple construction which permits easy assembling, is free of defects, and assures an exact measurement of the level. The level measuring device is preferably installed in the fuel tank of a motor vehicle.
The support can be of bar shape, and preferably tube-shape.
It is particularly simple to manufacture if the spring is formed by one or more spiral turns (11) of the support.
In such case, a particularly large spring path can be obtained if a plane of the turns (11) is approximately vertical.
In a two-fold function, the support may also comprise a suction tube (4) for removing liquid from the container.
In this case, the suction tube (4) can be provided with a suction foot (10) on the resting end of the support, and its fastening end (6) can be conducted outward tightly through the container wall (3) and form a suction connection (9).
The mechanical-electrical transducer is preferably a variable resistor.
With the above and other objects and advantages in view, the present invention will become more clearly understood in connection with a detailed description of a preferred embodiment, when considered with the accompanying drawings, of which:
FIG. 1 is a side view of a level measuring device in a fragmentary view of the container; and
FIG. 2 is a top view of the level measuring device in FIG. 1.
The level measuring device shown in the figures is arranged in a fuel tank 1 of a motor vehicle, a part of the bottom 2 of the tank and a part of the side wall 3 being shown in section.
A support developed as suction tube 4 lies with its resting end 5 applied under initial stress against the bottom 2 and is fastened at its fastening end 6 to the wall 3.
For this purpose, a flange 7 is arranged in the region of the fastening end 6 on the suction tube 4, the flange being fastened, resting tightly against it, to the outside of the wall 3 and closing an opening 8 in the wall 3 through which the fastening end 6 extends outward and forms a suction connection 9.
A suction foot 10, which may contain a filter, is arranged on the resting end 5 of the suction tube 4.
In the region closer to the wall, the suction tube 4 is shaped to form several spiral turns 11 the plane of which is vertical and which forms an elastic spring by which the resting end 5 is urged with initial stress against the bottom 2. Between the resting end 5 and the turns 11, there is fastened on the suction tube 4 a housing-like carrier 12 on which there is pivotally mounted a lever 13 which bears a float 14 at one end. The other end of the lever 13 acts on a variable resistor 20 which is located in a housing-like carrier 12 to produce a signal which is dependent on the position of the lever 13. The variable resistor 20 is shown in phantom, and includes a slide contact 21, movable by the lever 13 about a fixed resistive element 22. The signal of the resistor 20 is conducted via electric lines 15 to an electric plug 16 arranged on the outside of the flange 7. The plug 16 may be connected to an indicating device, not shown.
By way of example, the container may be a tank holding fuel for the engine of a motor vehicle. The fuel may be withdrawn from the tank via the suction tube 4. Thereby, the suction tube 4 serves the dual function of fuel withdrawal element and support for the carrier 12, the lever 13 and the resistor 20.
