Abstract:
The present invention discloses a method and device for measuring the volume of liquid in a container based on acoustic wave detection. The measurement method includes the following steps of: forming a cavity in a container, with the cavity being configured in such a way that acoustic waves within the cavity can be propagated only within the cavity; emitting acoustic waves into the cavity; receiving the acoustic waves reflected by an inner wall of the cavity and the liquid level; and, acquiring, based on an attenuation coefficient of the reflected acoustic waves, the volume of liquid in the container. By the method and device of the present invention, the volume of a space can be measured directly. The method and device of the present invention can be applicable to containers having irregular cavities due to no limitation to the shape of containers.

Claim (Index 4):
The method for measuring the volume of liquid in a container based on acoustic wave detection according to  claim 3 , wherein the emission duration of the acoustic waves is greater than 10 ms.
