Definitions

As a result, the analyzer provides information about physical parameters like sound or vibration in this area where the sensors are located.
- One practical example is to attach a high number of surface mountable microphones to the surface of a wing of a test airplane to locate turbulences of the airstream in a wind channel by the noise generated by a turbulence.
- Document EP 1 694 718 B1 describes a surface mountable electret condenser microphone, which may be attached to a surface by e.g. glue as a fastener.
- a surface mountable electret condenser microphone which may be attached to a surface by e.g. glue as a fastener.
- Such known surface mountable microphones are problematic to be used for tests like the one explained above, as after the location of a turbulence on the wing is identified all the microphones need to be dismounted to rework the surface of the wing. The destructive removal of the microphones and the glue leads to mechanical effects on the wing what is problematic.
- a microphone according to the invention comprises the advantage that the microphones may be dismounted after each test and mounted again onto the surface to be tested, without the risk of influencing the comparability of consecutive tests.
- a simple way to realize such mounting means would be one or more magnets within or as part of the case of the microphone which magnets generate magnetic forces towards a metallic surface to be tested. This simple realization works only in systems where the surface to be tested interacts with the magnets of the mounting means to generate a force that fixes the microphone to the surface.
- case mounting means are realized by one or more magnets within the case of the microphone.
- surface mounting means are realized by e.g. a flat metal ring glued to the surface to be tested. After each test, the microphones may be detached from the surface in a non-destructive way against the magnetic forces of the magnets, while only the metal rings stay glued on the surface. After the surface has been reworked based on the test result, the microphones are again positioned onto the metal rings which ensures a more or less exact positioning of all microphones to the same positions as they have been positioned during the preceding test. It is in particular advantageous to add positioning means to the case mounting means and surface mounting means to ensure exact positioning with an accuracy of only splits of a millimeter to ensure comparable consecutive test results.

Description
- The invention relates to a surface mountable microphone comprising:
- a case to protect the microphone;
- an acoustic sensor to transform sound waves into an electrical microphone signal; an electrical connector to provide the microphone signal.
- Prior art systems comprise a large number of sensors like microphones or vibration sensors mounted in different locations of an area or surface to measure analogue sensor signals, which signals are analyzed in an analyzer to which all sensors are connected. As a result, the analyzer provides information about physical parameters like sound or vibration in this area where the sensors are located. One practical example is to attach a high number of surface mountable microphones to the surface of a wing of a test airplane to locate turbulences of the airstream in a wind channel by the noise generated by a turbulence.

Document EP 1 694 718 B1 describes a surface mountable electret condenser microphone, which may be attached to a surface by e.g. glue as a fastener. Such known surface mountable microphones are problematic to be used for tests like the one explained above, as after the location of a turbulence on the wing is identified all the microphones need to be dismounted to rework the surface of the wing. The destructive removal of the microphones and the glue leads to mechanical effects on the wing what is problematic. - It is an object of the invention to provide a surface mountable microphone that may be used for consecutive tests without the risk of influences to the test result. This object is achieved with a surface mountable microphone that comprises mounting means that enable a non-destructive dismounting and remounting of the microphone to a surface.
- A microphone according to the invention comprises the advantage that the microphones may be dismounted after each test and mounted again onto the surface to be tested, without the risk of influencing the comparability of consecutive tests. A simple way to realize such mounting means would be one or more magnets within or as part of the case of the microphone which magnets generate magnetic forces towards a metallic surface to be tested. This simple realization works only in systems where the surface to be tested interacts with the magnets of the mounting means to generate a force that fixes the microphone to the surface.
- It provides advantages to split the mounting means of the microphone into two separate elements, case mounting means and surface mounting means. According to one embodiment of the invention, case mounting means are realized by one or more magnets within the case of the microphone. For this embodiment, surface mounting means are realized by e.g. a flat metal ring glued to the surface to be tested. After each test, the microphones may be detached from the surface in a non-destructive way against the magnetic forces of the magnets, while only the metal rings stay glued on the surface. After the surface has been reworked based on the test result, the microphones are again positioned onto the metal rings which ensures a more or less exact positioning of all microphones to the same positions as they have been positioned during the preceding test. It is in particular advantageous to add positioning means to the case mounting means and surface mounting means to ensure exact positioning with an accuracy of only splits of a millimeter to ensure comparable consecutive test results.
- These and other aspects of the invention will be apparent from and elucidated with reference to the embodiments described hereinafter. The person skilled in the art will understand that various embodiments may be combined.
