Abstract
An operating unit for a fluid-operated diaphragm actuator, the unit consisting of a drive diaphragm, two retaining elements flanking the drive diaphragm on opposite sides and an output rod extending through these components. The drive diaphragm is mounted on the output rod by being clamped between the two retaining elements with a predetermined clamping force, wherein each of the two retaining elements is fixed on the output rod by means of a welded connection. A method that is particularly suitable for producing such an operating unit and to a fluid-operated diaphragm actuator equipped with such an operating unit.
