20090145236 | DEVICE AND METHOD FOR PRESSURE INDICATION - A device that indicates an internal pressure of an inflatable medical cuff. The device includes a membrane movable in response to a difference between an internal pressure of the device and an external pressure. The device includes a movable internal pressure indicator. The movable internal pressure indicator is operably associated with at least a portion of the membrane. | 06-11-2009 |
20090288493 | PRESSURE-SENSOR APPARATUS - A pressure-sensing module includes a housing having a process-fluid port configured to be coupled to a process-fluid-flow circuit. The housing defines a first chamber into which the process fluid can flow through the process-fluid port. An isolator assembly is disposed within the housing and includes a fill port. The isolator assembly is configured to define a second chamber into which pressure-coupling fluid may be injected through the fill port. An electronic circuit is disposed within the second chamber and is configured to be pressure coupled by the coupling fluid and isolator assembly to the flow circuit. A plug having first and second ends occupies the fill port thereby sealing the second chamber. The first end is exposed to the process fluid in the first chamber, and the second end is exposed to the coupling fluid in the second chamber. | 11-26-2009 |
20100147083 | PACKAGING FOR DOWNHOLE PRESSURE TRANSDUCERS - Methods and related systems are described for a sealed housing for downhole transducers. The housing system includes a housing body and a transducer positioned within the housing body, and one or more flexible members sealably mounted on the housing body. The flexible members each have one or more undulations which facilitate movement of the flexible member in directions primarily perpendicular to the surface of the flexible member. The dimensions of the one or more undulations are designed so as to optimize the ability of the movements of the member thereby accommodating volume changes in the sealed housing. A substantial amount of compensating material can also be positioned within the housing body. The compensating material has a coefficient of thermal expansion substantially less than that of the housing material. | 06-17-2010 |
20100281994 | PRESSURE SENSING DEVICE FOR HARSH ENVIRONMENTS - A pressure sensing device comprises a substrate having an opening, a pressure sensor die electrically connected to the substrate, and a pedestal having an upper surface that extends through the opening in the substrate, with the upper surface affixed to the sensor die. The pedestal has a pressure port that extends from the upper surface to a bottom surface of the pedestal, with the pressure port containing a hermetic sealing tube therein. A hermetic sealing cover is affixed to the substrate over the sensor die, with the cover and the substrate containing a reference pressure for the sensor die. A media isolation component has a chamber filled with a fluid that transmits a pressure applied to the media isolation component to the pressure sensor die. A capillary tube is affixed within the pressure port of the pedestal and is in communication with the sealing tube. The capillary tube and the sealing tube provide fluid communication between the chamber of the media isolation component and the sensor die. | 11-11-2010 |
20130019689 | TAPERED SPIRAL BELLOWS PRESSURE SENSOR - A pressure measuring device includes a resilient expandable pressure sensor element having an open end and an opposite closed end. The pressure sensor element includes spiral flutes extending between the open and closed ends defining spiral bellows. The pressure sensor element is tapered over at least a portion of its length from the open end to the closed end. The pressure measuring device also includes a supporting structure having a pressure indicating scale. The supporting structure holds the pressure sensor element such that the open end of the pressure sensor element is in communication with a fluid whose pressure is to be measured and pressure applied by the fluid causes the pressure sensor element to expand axially and be visibly displaced relative to the pressure indicating scale by a distance related to the pressure applied by the fluid. | 01-24-2013 |
20160123825 | Structure of pressure gauge - An improved structure of pressure gauge includes a bottom case, a pressure measurement assembly, a rotating assembly, a fulcrum piece, a coil spring, a scale meter, and an outer case. The pressure measurement assembly is installed above the bottom case and the surface thereof is shaped with concentric circular waves. The rotating assembly includes a sleeve body and a central rod. A fulcrum piece is installed across between the sleeve body and the central rod. A plurality of through holes and a coil retaining base are provided on the fulcrum piece. One end of the coil spring is screwed onto the coil slot and the other end thereof is installed on the coil retaining base. The outer case is located in the outer area of the bottom case and the fulcrum piece. A transparent cover body is installed on top of the outer case. | 05-05-2016 |
