Abstract

1519803 Measuring fluid-pressure electrically LICENTIA PATENT VERWALTUNGS GmbH 3 Sept 1975 [3 Sept 1974] 36305/75 Heading G1N(A) A pressure difference set up between chambers 4 and 8 by fluid e.g. petrol, flowing through a Venturi 6 causes deflection of a metal disc 23 towards an inductance 10 and changes the resonant frequency of an L.C. oscillator, Fig. 2, delivering a D.C. voltage Vosc to an indicator, the voltage Vosc. being inversely proportional to the high frequency current. The chambers 4 and 8 are separated by an elastic non-conducting diaphragm 26 and the low-pressure chamber 8 is provided with concentric steps 64 to provide graded support for the deflecting disc and diaphragm. The inductance 10 may alternatively be located adjacent the high-pressure chamber. To provide a measure of, for example, litres per hundred kilometres travelled by a motor vehicle the output Vosc is applied via a linearizer (46), Figs. 20 and 27 (not shown) to an integrator (47), the capacitor (49) of which is periodically discharged by a switch (50) comprising drum contacts (53), Fig. 21 (not shown) rotating with the tacho drive-shaft. An instrument (35) displays the mean value of the time-integral curve. In an alternative embodiment the rotary switch (55), Fig. 23 (not shown) has changeover contacts connected such that the integrator output is applied to the instrument (35) only during a short period (t2) Fig. 26 (not shown) of each charging cycle. The linearizer (46) comprises two transistor amplifier stages (T r , Fig. 27) each with variable negative feedback. Charging of capacitance (49) is accomplished via a constant current source (67). Alternative linearizing circuits utilize the characteristic curve of a transistor (38), Fig. 15 (not shown) or that of serially connected diodes (41), Fig. 17 (not shown). A Zener diode (45), Fig. 18 (not shown) may be connected at the output of the linearizer to compress the upper end of the instrument scale.
