Abstract:
1. A case cap for a vibratory transducer for encasing at least one bent tube segment of a fluid-conducting flow tube, which tube segment vibrates during operation of the transducer, said case cap comprising: a channel-shaped first cap segment, with a circular-arc-shaped first segment edge of predeterminable radius and a second segment edge essentially identical in shape to said first segment edge, said first cap segment having a circular-arc-shaped cross section with a radius less than the radius of said first segment edge; an essentially plane second cap segment, which is connected via a circular-arc-shaped first segment edge with said first segment edge of said first cap segment; and a third cap segment, which is essentially mirror-symmetric with respect to said second cap segment and is connected via a circular-arc-shaped first segment edge with said second segment edge of said first cap, wherein: said second and third cap segments each having a substantially higher flexural rigidity than said first cap segment.
