INCLINOMETER OF IMPROVED PRECISION AND MANUFACTURING METHOD THEREOF

摘要

The invention concerns an inclinometer (10) comprising:
- a curved surface (12),
- a mobile element (11) on said curved surface, such that an inclination of the inclinometer (10) causes a displacement of the mobile element (11) on the curved surface (12), and
- a position sensor (13) adapted to detect a position of said mobile element (11) on said curved surface (12),
the inclinometer being characterized in that said curved surface (12) is obtained by the deflection of a membrane under exposure to a differential pressure between one side of said membrane and the opposite side of said membrane, said opposite side being exposed to atmospheric pressure. The invention also concerns a method for manufacturing such an inclinometer.
