摘要 |
<p>The invention comprises a viscometer which has a bob assembly unit suspended between the fixation points (40, 48) for a torsion wire (28). The torsion wire (28) runs through a tube (20), which is connected to the bob (16). The tube (20) has cutouts (46) so that it may rotate in response to rotations of a cup (10), in which the bob (16) is disposed. The framework (44) to support the fixation points for the wire is preferably positioned to extend through cutouts (46) in the tube (20) so as not to interfere with rotational movements of the tube. An arm (50) connected to the tube in conjunction with a transducer (52) measures the angular deflection of the wire for determination of viscosity for the fluid being examined.</p> |
