Abstract

Abstract The invention relates to an electromagnetic flow meter with a magnetic system having two magnetic poles which are attachable to a measuring tube from the outside, an outer yoke, and at least one separating gap. Each pole has a pole shoe and a core section carrying a winding which is connected at the radially outward end thereof without a gap to the adjoining magnetic system portion and the separating gap is disposed beyond the magnetic path for the stray flux.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 121 words
An electromagnetic flow meter, comprising a measuring tube of an electrically insulating material having a cylindrically shaped section, a magnetic system having two magnetic poles with pole shoes thereto attachable externally to diametrically opposite sides of said measuring tube, said poles including core sections carrying windings connected to said shoes, outer yoke means surrounding said poles, said poles including radially outward plate means connected to said core sections which extend circumferentially beyond said windings to receive stay flux from said pole shoes, and said yoke means having separating gap means associated therewith disposed beyond the magnetic path of said stray flux emanating from either of said pole shoes, said gap means being disposed between said plate means and said poles means.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 121 words
An electromagnetic flow meter, comprising a measuring tube of an electrically insulating material having a cylindrically shaped section, a magnetic system having two magnetic poles with pole shoes thereto attachable externally to diametrically opposite sides of said measuring tube, said poles including core sections carrying windings connected to said shoes, outer yoke means surrounding said poles, said poles including radially outward plate means connected to said core sections which extend circumferentially beyond said windings to receive stay flux from said pole shoes, and said yoke means having separating gap means associated therewith disposed beyond the magnetic path of said stray flux emanating from either of said pole shoes, said gap means being disposed between said plate means and said poles means.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 29 words
A flow meter according to claim 1 characterized in that said separating gap means extend over a larger area than does the cross-section of either of said core sections.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 34 words
A flow meter according to claim 1 characterized in that said core sections are connected without a gap to said yoke means and said yoke means is segmented to form said separating gap means.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 22 words
A flow meter according to claim 1 characterized in that said core sections are made in one piece with said plate means.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 22 words
A flow meter according to claim 1 characterized in that said core sections are made in one piece with said yoke means.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 23 words
A flow meter according to claim 1 characterized in that said yoke means comprise laminae perpendicular to the axis of said measuring tube.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 25 words
A flow meter according to claim 1 wherein an adjoining magnetic system portion surround said core sections is magnetically conductively interconnected with said core sections.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 15 words
A flow meter according to claim 1 characterized in that said windings are disk windings.
