A diaphragm consisting of multiple arches configured such that radial compliance is increased and pressure responsive radial compression loading will approximate radial tension loading resulting from deflection of an associated pressure sensor mechanism. On the pressure receiving side of the diaphragm, a broad shallow convex section extends between two concave sections of tighter curvature. The portions of the concave sections remote from the convex section each extend to a substantially cylindrical configuration. A sharp convex bend extending to a flat radial flange provides an attachment edge with minimum attachment stress. A method of forming such a diaphragm to insure uniform wall thickness by allowing maximum lateral migration of the diaphragm sheet is also disclosed. |
