<p>Inventor: Ralph H. Bauman Title: "Surface Thermocouple Assembly and Method of Making Same" A surface thermocouple assembly and method of making same, characterized by a sheathed thermocouple cable having a sensing end including a preformed segment of solid metal welded to the end face of the sheath. The preformed metal segment has a contact face extending the full length thereof substantially parallel to the adjacent axial portion of the cable and adapted for contiguous intimate contact with the skin or external surface of the member whose temperature is to be monitored. Axially inwardly spaced a short distance from the end, face of the sheath is a measuring junction which is formed by welding the ends of the thermocouple wires to the inside diameter of the sheath. Insulation material completely surrounds the measuring junction, and the end face of the sheath is closed by an end closure of weld metal which is ground flat to provide a uniformly flat attachment surface for attachment of the preformed segment thereto as by butt welding around the entire periphery of such surface.</p> |
