A magnetic-inductive flowmeter with a measuring tube, a magnetic field generator and a measuring electrode in which its measuring electrodes are improved is achieved by the measuring electrode being formed of an outer electrode sheath of an electrically non-conductive plastic and of an inner electrode core of electrically conductive plastic, and by a method for producing the measuring electrode.

Magnetic-inductive flowmeter and method for producing a measuring electrode

A magnetic-inductive flowmeter for measuring flow of a flowing medium, having a measuring tube, a magnetic field generator, at least one measuring electrode and a measuring section that is flat on one side having a planar measuring tube portion. Furthermore, the magnetic field generator has at least one coil core and a pole shoe. The magnetic-inductive flowmeter is improved compared to the prior art by several support lugs being present between the planar measuring tube portion and the pole shoe.

Magnetic-inductive flowmeter

The invention relates to a magnetic-inductive flowmeter having a measuring tube (), a magnetic field generator () and a measuring electrode (). Thereby, the measuring tube () has a measuring section () that is flat on one side having a planar measuring tube portion, called portion () in the following, and the magnetic field generator () has a pole shoe (). A flowmeter that allows a high measuring accuracy, even under high pressure loads is achieved in that a support rib () is implemented on the planar measuring tube portion ().

A flowmeter for flow measurement of a flowing medium having a measuring tube and a measuring device housing that can be also used in fields in which magnetic-inductive flowmeters have not previously been used or used only on a small scale&#x2014;primarily due to costs is achieved by the provision a reinforcement structure is assigned to the measuring tube and/or the measuring device housing, wherein the reinforcement structure is formed of at least one reinforcement unit&#x2014;preferably of several reinforcement units. The reinforcement units are preferably bolt and tube arrangements received in through-passages or external recesses formed in the housing.

This mail-handling apparatus includes a feed module for feeding in mail items, a weigh module and a franking module. The weigh module includes regulator means for regulating the speed of advance of the conveyor means of the weigh module, which regulator means are adapted to take account of the weighing times taken to weigh the mail items.

Apparatus for handling mail on the fly

A method of checking the height of a mail item relative to at least one dimensional threshold SH defining a change in postage. The mail items are advanced at a constant speed V along a reference surface. The presence of a mail item is detected relative to a given point of the reference surface. First and second times t, tfor which the same mail item is present at the first and second distances d, drelative to the reference surface is detected. The ratio t/tis compared with a value equal to (1&#x2212;&#x3b5;), where &#x3b5; represents a correction coefficient of less than 1 that depends on the tolerances for detection of the presence of a mail item. The height of a mail item is considered greater than the dimensional threshold SH if, and only if, the relationship t/t&#x3e;1&#x2212;&#x3b5; is true.

Method and apparatus for checking the height of a mail item on the fly for franking purposes

A weighing module comprising a weighing platform incorporating a weighing cell and a motorized drive belt for transporting a mail item from one side to the other of the weighing platform, means for sensing the format of said mail item and processing means for calculating the weight of said mail item within a particular range of weights obtained beforehand from said format.

Weighing module for weighing on the fly

A bushing for an electrical high-frequency signal, with at least one conductive element carrying the electrical high-frequency signal, with at least one mechanical supporting element and with at least two insulating elements between the conductive element and the supporting element that perform different functions. The bushing for an electrical high-frequency signal is designed so that the impedances of the insulating elements are basically identical.
