Abstract:
1. A measurement transducer of vibration-type for a medium flowing in a pipeline, said measurement transducer comprising: a measuring tube vibrating at least at times during operation and serving for conveying the medium, said measuring tube communicating with the pipeline via an inlet tube piece on an inlet end and an outlet tube piece on an outlet end; a counteroscillator affixed to the measuring tube at the inlet end to form a first coupling zone and at the outlet end to form a second coupling zone; as well as a first cantilever for producing bending moments in the inlet tube piece, said first cantilever being coupled in the region of the first coupling zone essentially rigidly with the inlet tube piece and the measuring tube, and a second cantilever for producing bending moments in the outlet tube piece, said second cantilever being coupled in the region of the second coupling zone essentially rigidly with the outlet tube piece and the measuring tube; wherein each of said first and second cantilevers has a mass, m
