Abstract
Abstract An annular magnetoelastic transducer has a core in the shape of a cylindrical ring. The core is manufactured by winding a striplike magnetostrictive material so that the plane of the strip is parallel to the central axis of the ring. In the core is a number of holes which are arranged substantially radially through the core. The holes are arranged in groups which are evenly distributed around the circumference of the core. In the holes there is a winding connected to a current source for generating a magnetic flux in the core and a winding connected to a measuring device for indicating the alterations of the magnetic flux which appears when the core is subjected to mechanical forces.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim
96 words
Annular magnetoelastic transducer for converting a pressure to a corresponding electric signal and comprising a core of magnetostrictive material which is provided with windings to generate a magnetic flux in the core and to sense the flux alterations arising in the core when this is subjected to mechanical pressure, said core being wound helically from a striplike material into the shape of a cylindrical ring, the plane of the strip being parallel to the central axis of the ring, said ring having holes arranged substantially radially through the core, said windings being situated in said holes.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
