摘要 |
The invention relates to an indicator device for indicating a pressure prevailing in a cavity, particularly for pressure measurements in medical apparatuses, such as vacuum suction arrangements for drying off body fluids, the device consisting of a small transparent tube with a tubular channel, an open end to be connected to the cavity, and a closed end. The tubular channel is filled at least partially with a fluid, and a gas, in particular air, is contained between the fluid and the closed end so that, in the event of changes in pressure inside the cavity, with a change in volume of the gas, the fluid moves inside the measurement tube. The tubular channel (9) has a cross-section which changes from the open end (12) of the measurement tube (7) in the direction of the closed end (11). <IMAGE> |
