Patent ID: 7658116

Claim:
A measuring transducer of the vibration-type for a medium flowing in a pipeline, said measuring transducer comprising: a measuring tube vibrating at least at times during operation and serving for conveying the medium, said measuring tube having an inlet tube piece on an inlet end and an outlet tube piece on an outlet end, communicating with the pipeline via said inlet tube piece and said outlet tube piece; a counteroscillator affixed to said measuring tube at said inlet end to form a first coupling zone and at said outlet end to form a second coupling zone; a first cantilever being coupled in the region of said first coupling zone with said inlet tube piece and said measuring tube; a second cantilever being coupled in the region of said second coupling zone with said outlet tube piece and said measuring tube; a sensor arrangement held, at least partly, at said counteroscillator for registering oscillations at least of said measuring tube; an exciter mechanism held, at least partly, at said counteroscillator for driving at least said measuring tube; a transducer housing affixed to said inlet tube piece and to said outlet tube piece; and connection lines, wherein: at least one of said connection lines is secured to at least one of said two cantilevers.
