Abstract
The invention relates to a flow rate measuring device in a liquid flow including a torque detecting member having its longitudinal plane fixedly mounted at an acute angle relative to the direction of liquid flow. Energy from the liquid flow provides a torsional stress on the mounting means. A torque detecting device is provided to detect the torsional stress and converts such measured torque into a flow rate of the liquid flow.
