Ultrasound transducer assembly and ultrasound flowmeter

摘要

The present invention relates to an ultrasound transducer assembly for an ultrasound flowmeter, comprising a one-part or multi-part housing (2), which is provided to be connected to a line carrying the medium to be measured, wherein the ultrasound transducer transmits ultrasound through the housing (2) and the ultrasound transducer assembly has the following features:
an ultrasound transducer body (4, 7) with a first main surface on the side facing the medium and a second main surface on the side facing away from the medium,first, preferably planar, contact means for electrically contacting the first main surface of the ultrasound transducer body (4, 7),second, preferably planar, contact means for electrically contacting the second main surface of the ultrasound transducer body (4, 7), wherein the first contact means are located between the ultrasound transducer body (4, 7) and the housing (2), through which ultrasound is to be transmitted, of the ultrasound flowmeter. To simplify the construction it is proposed to place the first contact means of the ultrasound transducer body (4, 7) loosely in the housing (2) or to fix them on the housing side.
