SENSOR COMPONENT FOR AN OPTICAL FLOW RATE SENSOR

摘要

A sensor component for an optical flow rate sensor for fluid and/or gaseous media includes at least one component segment and at least one sensor segment. The sensor segment includes at least two inspection windows in the region of a plurality of cutouts in a sensor segment disposed such that it is possible for light to pass through a transverse section of the sensor segment. The sensor segment may include exactly one inspection window in the region of a cutout and a reflective surface, for example a mirrored or polished surface, provided on the side opposite the cutout, such that it is possible for light to pass through the sensor segment twice through a transverse section of the sensor segment. The sensor component includes a receiving component that can be inserted in the one or more cutouts and the sight glass is bonded to the receiving component.

主权项

1. A sensor component for an optical flow rate sensor for at least one of a plurality of fluids and a gaseous media, the sensor component comprising:
at least one component segment; and at least one sensor segment comprising a receiving component and at least one sight glass, said at least one sensor segment including one of:
at least two sight glasses in a region of a plurality of recesses in said at least one sensor segment, said receiving component being insertable into said plurality of recesses and said at least two sight glasses being arranged such that a cross section of said at least one sensor segment is penetrable with a light, said at least two sight glasses being materially joined with said receiving component; andone sight glass in a region of one recess of said at least one sensor segment and a reflecting surface on a side opposite said one recess, said receiving component being insertable into said one recess and said one sight glass being materially joined with said receiving component.
