Abstract

1,174,876. Rotary fluid-flow meters. AMERICAN METER CO. Aug.12, 1968 [Feb.16, 1968], No.38490/68, Heading F1F. A rotary fluid-flow meter comprises a rotor 40, Fig.6, having axially-orientated rectangular blades 44 lodged in an annular channel 35, Fig. 2, which is intersected by cylindrical cavity 36 containing a rotary gate 46, Fig. 7, contrived to prevent direct communication between an inlet opening 26 and an outlet opening 27 in the peripheral wall of said channel, synchronous rotation of the gate with the rotor in the same direction being effected by shoulders 50, 51 on the rotor engaging with convex faces 52, 53 on the gate adjacent slots 49 that allow the blades to pass through the cavity. During operation of the meter, the rotor is driven by the fluid flowing along the channel 35 and effecting positive-displacement of the blades. The rotor is connected to a register (not shown) by a magnetic coupling (60, 62, Fig. 1 not shown); and the channel 35 and the cavity 36 are formed in a casing 23 fixed within a housing comprising pipe connections 12, 13, rubber seals 57 being situated in the casing as shown.
