    Method and meter for density measurement of fluid media
    The invention relates to a method according to the preamble of claim 1 and a measuring device according to the preamble of patent claim 7 and a cartridge for a measuring device.
    The measurement of the density with a flexural vibrator is based on the fact that the natural vibrations of a fluid-filled U-tube change with mass and at constant volume with the density of the filling medium and are determined by measuring parameters characterizing the vibration system, e.g. Period duration or frequency and / or amplitude and / or attenuation, quality, loss angle and / or harmonics, a natural oscillation, after excitation with suitable frequencies and determining the response of the system, for example by means of phase angle and / or amplitude of the excited oscillation, the density and / or the concentration of binary mixtures can be determined. To detect the resonances, for example, exciter amplifiers are used which, by means of the principle of positive feedback or attenuation, help the oscillator to achieve an undamped oscillation in the resonant position.
    Laboratory measuring devices are usually designed with a U-shaped tube as bending vibrator, optionally with an additional reference oscillator. In this case, the oscillator must be equipped with a sufficiently large countermass to obtain accurate and stable measurement results, since the measurement emanates from a constant volume in the oscillating system. This requires that the vibration node does not change at the clamping point. This is theoretically possible only with an infinitely high countermass.
    Portable density meters can be realized by bending vibrators with mass balance. These can be embodied as so-called double bowing oscillators, which have two bending vibrators connected by a bent connecting piece, which oscillate against one another. Alternatively, so-called X-oscillators can be used, in which the two legs of a U-tube oscillate in the plane formed by them against each other. The two legs of the vibrating structure swing so in opposite phase, that a mass balance takes place you no countermass is required.
    Figures 1 and 2 show such a bending vibrator with mass balance, here a Doppelbugschwinger, in which the two U-shaped bent sections swing against each other.
    Fig. 1 shows the basic principle of a bending vibrator according to the invention with mass balance, although at most used damping elements are not shown. The double-bow bending oscillator comprises a transducer tube 9, bent in a U-shaped manner in a region 4, whose ends or legs 10, 11 are each connected to an end connection 2, 3. To carry out a density measurement, the tube 9 is flowed through via the end connections or supports 2, 3 with fluid. In bending areas 5, 5 ', the longitudinal center region of the tube 9 with the base 4 is bent off or bent back in the direction of the end connections 2, 3 and forms further legs 12, 13, as can be seen in FIG. In at least one of the bending regions 5 is a vibration exciter 7 and in each opposite bending region 5 'is a measuring unit 7' for at least one vibration parameter, preferably the vibration amplitude, is provided. In practice, one or two vibration exciters 7 and one or two measuring units 7 'are thus provided. With the vibration exciter 7, the tube 9 or the bending areas 5, 5 'are vibrated, wherein the bending areas 5, 5' swing toward and away from each other, as shown by the arrow 6. The decrease of the oscillation takes place with a measuring unit 7 'embodied as a vibration detector. The oscillation excitation and the decay of the oscillation parameters advantageously takes place electromagnetically controlled or monitored with a measuring or sensor electronics 23 or with a control unit 51 shown in FIG. 4, which is connected in particular to the oscillation exciter 7 or to the oscillation detector 7 '.
    The clamping point of the oscillator tube is always to be regarded as a so-called vibration node of the oscillating system, a filling of the oscillator tube beyond this holding and clamping point also plays no role in the oscillation and does not contribute to the measurement.
    The materials used for such oscillators or vibrating tubes 10, 11, 12, 13 are both metals and glass. In addition to the choice of material, the dimensions of the transducer tube determine the measuring range by the natural frequencies of the transducer and the achievable accuracy of the measurement. The choice of material is also dependent on the fluids to be measured, for example hydrofluoric acid can not be used with glass oscillators, while the relevant for the battery measurement sulfuric acid can not be studied with metal vibrators.
    In the case of density measurement, it may be desirable to measure toxic and / or radioactive substances whose leaching and / or dilution with a solvent can lead to problems when cleaning the vibrator. The measurement of medical samples may also require a strict separation during the examination in order to ensure a carryover of substance between different samples. In some special measurement applications, therefore, the use of easily exchangeable measuring cells is desired.
    The programs of handheld devices are as simple as possible in terms of operability and not geared to the re-entry of Justierdaten. The delivery usually takes place after a factory adjustment of the measuring device. The quality of the meter is determined by so-called one-point calibrations, e.g. by water point, checked.
    The oscillator may be affected by the conditions of use outside a laboratory due to both environmental influences and environmental conditions, e.g. Frost or too high temperatures, or handling will be affected. The oscillator may be subject to aging conditions that would require a readjustment of the vibrator to ensure the accuracy of the vibrator.
    Glass vibrators are prone to breakage. By hard impacts, accidental drops or high temperature fluctuations, e.g. When filling the cooled vibrator with hot liquids, the oscillator tubes may break or the mechanical properties may change. This will make the entire device unusable.
    An oscillator replacement, for example, after breakage is usually a complex procedure; in particular, the calibration parameters of the measuring instrument must be redetermined and stored after replacement.
    Justiermessungen after an exchange of the oscillator tube are very difficult to carry out. This is e.g. The fact that at least the measuring points air, water plus at least one adjustment standard must be available for the adjustment. Because of the lightweight and portable design, such devices are not designed with elaborate filling systems for cleaning and drying the vibrator, which can be cleaned by, for example, rinsing with solvents and subsequent drying, e.g. by compressed air.
    Especially with laboratory measuring devices with the possibility of temperature control of the samples, it may be desirable to measure the density of samples for a long time or specific temperature ranges in which the sample properties change. This can, for. B. by curing the medium, cause the measuring cell or the vibration tube can not be cleaned. As an example, adhesives, paints, polymers should be mentioned, i. all media that no longer allow the emptying of the cell. Even media that make the glass permanently opaque or change the properties of the glass or influence its surface and / or structure must be able to be investigated.
    The invention is therefore based on the object to create a measuring system that avoids these disadvantages, is structurally simple and allows precise measurements.
    This is achieved according to the invention in a measuring device of the type mentioned above with the features cited in the characterizing part of claim 1. According to the invention, it is thus provided that a bending oscillator with mass balance is used as the density sensor and that all components of the bending vibrator with mass compensation which are relevant for the vibration behavior, oscillation excitation and vibration evaluation and the measuring and sensor electronics directly associated with the flexural vibrator with mass compensation comprise a housing or a cartridge be enclosed and / or these components are used with the flexural vibrator with mass balance in the cartridge, - that the bending vibrator with mass balance including cartridge adjusted or calibrated using measurement standards and optionally adapted to the particular application, and - that the cartridge with the bending oscillator mass balancing before the beginning of the measuring insert for the examination of media with the measuring device or its body is releasably or interchangeably connected.
    A measuring device according to the invention is characterized in that the bending oscillator with mass balance and its measuring and sensor electronics are inserted in a cartridge and enclosed by the latter, that the cartridge is detachably connectable or connected to the measuring device via the cartridge and the measuring device formed connecting components, and - that at least one storage medium is enclosed by the cartridge or arranged in the cartridge, are stored on the adjustment or calibration data of the bending oscillator, which were determined for the bending vibrator using measurement standards.
    A cartridge which can be connected to or inserted into such a measuring device is characterized in that in the cartridge a bending vibrator with mass balance and its measuring and sensor electronics and at least one storage medium are arranged or completely enclosed by this cartridge or its housing. For the interchangeability of the cartridge, it is advantageous if the calibration or calibration data are stored on a storage medium located in or on the cartridge and kept there electronically readable and / or in the course of the measurement, the measurement data and calibration or calibration of the in the cartridge located bending vibrator with mass balance or its associated measuring and sensor electronics are transmitted to an evaluation unit located in the meter.
    It is useful if in the course of the measurement of the measuring and sensor electronics control signals for the phase position of the excitation of the oscillator tube of the bending oscillator with mass balance are transferred to the located in the cartridge or in the measuring unit control unit for the components located in the cartridge and / or if electric, periodic signals generated as the characteristic signals for the density evaluation of the measuring and sensor electronics located in the cartridge to the meter and / or the measured value unit generated from the decrease signal of the bending oscillator with mass balance and / or if temperature measuring signals relating to the ambient temperature and / or the temperature of the oscillator tube for compensating the temperature of the density measurement and / or for temperature equalization and / or the precalculation thereof are transmitted from the measuring and sensor electronics located in the cartridge to the measuring device and / or the measured value unit.
    It is convenient if the cartridge carries a connecting part, which is assigned to the meter a counterpart with which the cartridge and the meter are detachably connected to each other, and / or if on the cartridge of the bending oscillator with
    Mass balance and connectable to the meter interconnected plug, screw, clamp or bayonet locks are formed. For the evaluation or construction of the measuring instrument, it is advantageous if in the cartridge the excitation amplifier and the vibration exciter and the sensors for the decrease of the vibration parameters, e.g. Magnets, piezoelectric elements, electrical elements, temperature sensors, excitation units for the excitation angle and / or lighting units for optical control of the vibration tube filling, are arranged, these components are optionally arranged on at least one circuit board, which are accommodated in the cartridge together with the bending vibrator with mass balance and / or the meter the control and
    Evaluation electronics, a keyboard, a screen, the voltage or
    Power supply and / or filling aids, for example in the form of a syringe or pump or a sample sampler and optionally contains storage media for recording and training of interfaces and output units for the measured data and / or in the cartridge in addition to the exciter amplifier, the evaluation unit, advantageously in the form of a microcontroller , is integrated with a wired or wireless interface and / or on the meter, an output pipe or connecting pipe for the supply or discharge of a medium to or from the bending vibrator is formed with mass balance, adapted to the cartridge pipe pieces or recordings for medium-tight connection Cartridge are formed with the meter.
    In FIGS. 3 and 4, an inventive measuring device with cartridge is explained in more detail.
    The flexural vibrator with mass balance 30 used in the measuring device according to the invention has already been explained with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2. Such a bending vibrator with mass balance 30 is used in the measuring device according to the invention or is a part of the same. The flexural vibrator with mass balance 30 is inserted into a housing 21, which housing 21 has the shape of a cartridge 20; this cartridge 20 receives the flexural vibrator with mass balance 30. Furthermore, in this cartridge 20, the measuring and sensor electronics 23 is arranged, which receives the vibration parameters of the flexural vibrator with mass balance 30 and / or forwards and / or evaluates. Further, in the cartridge 20, a storage unit 22 is arranged, in which prior to the beginning of the measuring insert data are stored, which data using density measurement standards for the bending oscillator with
    Mass balance 30 were obtained. Alternatively, another bending vibrator with mass balance could also be used here.
    The measuring device according to the invention is shown in greater detail in FIG. 3 in its entirety. This measuring device has an end portion 28, in which displays, setting options and / or the measuring or evaluation unit 50 can be arranged, with which the data determined by the measuring and sensor electronics 23 are evaluated. In principle, it would also be possible to arrange the measuring or evaluation unit 50 in the cartridge 20. This measurement or evaluation unit 50 can also control the oscillatory movement of the bending oscillator with mass compensation 30. But this can also be done with its own control unit 51.
    The cartridge 20 has connecting elements or a connection 25, with which the cartridge 20 can be connected to a base body 29 of the measuring device, which is connected to the end part 28. For this purpose, correspondingly adapted to each other on the base body 29 and / or on the cartridge 20 connecting parts may be formed, which are designated in Fig. 3 with 31.
    The measuring fluid is guided through the oscillator tube 10, 11, 12, 13 via a connection 26 or an outlet 26 ', which inlet and which outlet preferably communicate directly with the oscillator tube 10, 11, 12, 13. For the transmission of the electrical signals, a corresponding contact 27 is provided, to which the evaluation unit 50 is connected. The control unit 51 for setting the oscillation parameters of the bending oscillator with mass balancing bending oscillator with mass compensation 30 is provided in the measuring device 28 and / or in the main body 29.
    It can also be connected to the main body 29, a tube 35, with the medium to be examined to the inlet 26 of the cartridge 20 can be passed. With appropriate, not shown suction or pumping devices can be sucked through this tube 35 medium and passed through the bending vibrator with mass balance 30 for surveying.
    All parts of the measurement and evaluation electronics which are relevant for the oscillator behavior can be combined with the oscillator tube in an easily exchangeable, mechanically stable, partially transparent, thermally insulating, liquid-tight, specimen-stable enclosure or cartridge and can be electrically and mechanically connected with a detachable connection and fluidly coupled to the meter or its housing.
    The components that are picked up by the cartridge are the relevant electronics, including excitation amplifiers, exciters and vibration sensors, for example magnets, piezos, temperature sensors and / or actuators, e.g. for switching the excitation angle as well as the backlight for optical control of cell filling. These components are preferably installed on at least one printed circuit board and installed together with the bending oscillator in the housing or in the cartridge.
    This cartridge can be factory-adjusted for each meter by measurements on measurement standards, and the calibration data is made electronically readable with the cartridge. The cartridge can thus be made available or kept in stock as an independent part.
    The possibly having a handle measuring device contains in its housing the control and evaluation electronics, e.g. a μ-controller or computer, as well as keyboard, screen, voltage / power supply including power supply, battery, battery, and filling aids, e.g. Syringe, pump or sample sampler, and, if necessary, storage media for recording data and interfaces for outputting the measurement data. The meter can be equipped with different cartridges. The meter reads for each of the cartridges inserted the calibration constants stored in the respective cartridge from the cartridge to obtain the reading, e.g. Density, using the Justierkonstanten that are stored in the cartridge to calculate.
    The oscillator exchange can be done very easily by the user.
    The liquid-tight and / or shock-damped and / or thermally insulated cartridge may be provided with a plug for electrical or electronic coupling and grommets and connection openings or openings for fluid coupling, as well as mechanical fixings, e.g. Screw connection and / or clamp, to be connected to the meter.
    At least the following electrical connections are made between the cartridge and the meter: Between the meter and the cartridge, electrical connections to the field and excitation coil
    Piezos made. Furthermore, a control signal for the phase position of the excitation of the oscillator is transferred to the cartridge. A control signal for switching the backlight of the oscillator on and off is supplied to the cartridge. An electrical periodic signal generated from the decay signal of the oscillator is transferred from the cartridge to the measuring instrument as a characteristic signal for the density evaluation. It will be at least one, but two will be preferred
    Temperature measuring signals, e.g. concerning environment and / or oscillator temperature, necessary for temperature compensation of the density measurement or for
    Temperature equalization prediction, transferred from the cartridge to the meter.
    The voltage and / or power supply of the cartridge is carried out by the meter.
    A 1-wire bus signal can be transmitted from the cartridge to the meter for transmission of the calibration constants. Also, storing values from the meter on the data memory of the cartridge, such as a cartridge. vibration relevant data or max. Acceleration during operation and quality checks, such as Water Check, is possible.
    This can be ensured especially in handheld devices a simple field exchange defective bending vibrator without having to readjust. Existing cartridges can be used after aging by factory readjustment. Contamination of the instrument with sample liquid can be prevented. After a break, defective gauges can be easily repaired by cartridge replacement. The service of the device is simplified or even made possible in the field. A set of easy-to-exchange, multi-sample cartridges of mass balancing mass balancing flexural flexural flexural devices may be provided. The bending vibrator can be protected against environmental influences. The entire cartridge can be immersed in the medium to be examined in order to produce an optimized temperature control.
    In a particular embodiment, in addition to the exciter amplifier, an evaluation unit, e.g. Microcontroller, including wired or wireless interface, e.g. RS232, USB, Bluetooth and / or WLAN, integrated in the cartridge. This makes it possible with the cartridge, a simple density meter, in the form of a module or smart sensor, without local operation or keyboard and visualization or display to create. The visualization or operation is carried out by means of a PC, tablet PCs or mobile phones via PC program or app. The power supply of such a module can be either directly from the communication interface, e.g. USB, CAN, or be implemented by a battery supply. Also, a combination of supply from the wired interface, e.g. USB, and wireless communication, e.g. Bluetooth is possible.
    To a preferred embodiment, the cartridge or its housing with a connecting part, in particular with a screw, with the housing of the measuring device or an additional housing or -abteil the meter are connected or screwed. An intended additional housing can be used as a battery compartment or as a carrier for communication connections, e.g. USB, CAN plugs / sockets, or in the case of a wireless interface act as a carrier of the antennas. Alternatively, it would also be possible to integrate the evaluation unit not in the housing, but in an additional housing to protect the evaluation unit at Schwingerrohrbruch. The tubing or the fluid path can be guided via this additional housing via connection sleeves or hose adapter to the bending oscillator with mass balance. Ideally, this additional housing also serves as a base to which the housing is attached.
    The coupling between the cartridge and the meter can be done via a liquid distributor, which serves as a suspension point and support and, if necessary, can also be exchanged. The two legs of the vibrator, which are available for the supply and discharge of the sample are coupled to the liquid distributor or tightly connected.
    The attachment of the sensor of the bending oscillator with mass balance in the housing is designed such that it is attached only to the support and does not allow mechanical contact with the housing wall. Thus, a vibration influence and a mechanical decoupling against environmental influences, e.g. Impact or load of the cartridge reached.
    The attachment of the cartridge to the measuring device is advantageously designed such that the fluid connections of the flexible oscillator are inclined in the measuring position of the measuring device, e.g. 10 °, upwards or in the stationary position of the measuring device, in particular directly, are directed upward and thus gas bubbles, which are disturbing for the density measurement, can escape. The connection is made by gaskets on
    Bending oscillator with mass balance or sealed at the liquid distributor. The supply and discharge of the fluid takes place in principle by means of any filling mechanism. That The sample can be fed either manually by a hand pump, but also electrically assisted by a motor pump or a linear drive to assist the hand pump. The hand pump can be realized for example with a spring-assisted syringe, which is tensioned against the spring force by the user and then automatically sucks the sample by means of the spring force. In a simple form, preferred for highly viscous liquids, the sample may be passed from a syringe into the flexural vibrator with mass balance. The sampling by pumping from a reservoir is also possible, as an arrangement in the handset with a controlled withdrawal by syringe from a sample container.
    The connections of the respective filling system can be made on the liquid distributor of the measuring device.
    The cartridge is attached to the gauge by means of dowel pins, quick-release fastener, screw cap with union nut or similar devices.
    The electrical connections are each made separately via a plug-in contact, or the plug contacts are already fixed to the meter and the cartridge so that the contact is made by fitting fit.
    It is also an electrically contactless coupling between the cartridge and the meter possible. By known procedures, e.g. Transformer, optocoupler, RFID, etc., both power supply and data communication can be wireless. As a result, the problem of the liquid seal or the disadvantages of mechanical connectors due to corrosion, contact problems, etc. can be prevented.
    The encapsulation of the bending vibrator with mass balance and the electronic components is preferably carried out with unbreakable material. In the case of metallic oscillators, for example, this can be done simply by a metallic coating.
    In the case of glass swingers, optical control of the filling state for bubbles is available. These glass oscillators are therefore preferably coated with transparent materials. This may be glass but also, for example unbreakable plastic material, e.g. Polycarbonate.
    In this case, at least a part of the cartridge can be made transparent or the cartridge can have a viewing window.
    The cartridge can be equipped with an illumination of the bending vibrator with mass balance, which supports the optical control of the filling quality. For this purpose, a backlight can be attached to the rear of the oscillator tube, opposite the viewing window.
    Optionally, a reflective film for observing the filling condition is mounted behind the vibrator. The cartridge can be performed in a section as a magnifying glass to facilitate visual inspection and improve.
    In one embodiment, the housing of the cartridge can also be made thermally insulated. This minimizes the influence of changing ambient conditions, especially with hand-held measuring devices. The insulation ensures a more rapid achievement of stable measurement conditions and, in combination with the measurement of two housing and oscillator temperature values, can mean shorter measurement times due to temperature equalization prediction.
    The housing contains at least one, preferably two, temperature sensors, for example NTCs, PTCs, thermocouples, etc. in order to detect the achievement of stable temperature conditions in the housing.
    Thus, both the temperature of the oscillator tube with the filling by the fluid at the vibrator and the temperature in the interior of the cartridge can be measured. This makes it possible to achieve a stable measuring point during the measurement in a handheld instrument without temperature control and to record the temperature of the sample at the time of the measurement. By depositing adjustment tables, possibly adjustment polynomials, for the temperature dependence of the density of different samples, the density at any temperatures can be determined. In the case of laboratory devices with temperature control of the sample so the sample temperature can be checked if necessary.
    The Justierdaten the temperature measurement used and the Justierkonstanten for the evaluation of the density of the measurement signals of the bending oscillator are factory-determined for each inserted into a cartridge bending vibrator with mass balance and provided in the cartridge for installation in or for transfer to the meter available.
    In the simplest case, the cartridges are provided with a unique identifier, such as a number or an electronically readable code such as a barcode. The adjustment data can be entered from an attached data sheet with this number to the meter and can there be available with this number in the memory for evaluation of the measured data callable.
    The adjustment data can also be transmitted on a data medium / storage medium and copied or designed with a reader from the meter. The adjustment data can also be read by the measuring device, for example, via an interface and read in electronically.
    In one embodiment, the cartridge can be automatically detected by the meter and the adjustment data can be stored directly on a non-volatile memory on the cartridge at the factory. In this case, if necessary, the dataset can be renewed at the factory by additional adjustment measurements after aging of the vibrator.
    In one embodiment, the adjustment data is available in a nonvolatile memory directly in the cartridge and can be read out there directly from the measuring device via a single contact, for example using a known one-wire bus system such as the Dallas I-Button, and during the adjustment be filed on this.
    In a further embodiment, the data may be factory-written to an RFID tag and transmitted from the meter by means of a possibly contactless, e.g. installed in the measuring device, readers are read out.
    The installation of the cartridge can be done with an additional degree of shock absorption to reduce the likelihood of the transducer breaking and increase the robustness of the entire instrument. For this purpose, the connection between the measuring device and the cartridge can be achieved by the use of resilient elements, e.g. Rubber seals, cushioned.
    The cartridge encloses the components arranged in it advantageously completely or completely.
