Abstract

Provided is a gas flowmeter comprising: a device main body that air-tightly accommodates a fluid to be measured; an inlet part that guides the fluid to be measured into the device main body; an outlet part that discharges the fluid to be measured from the device main body; and a connection part that is connected to the outlet part. The gas flowmeter further comprises: an ultrasonic-type flow rate measuring part that is connected to the connection part and calculates the flow rate of the fluid to be measured that flows internally; and a flow path member that is connected to the connection part and has the same flow path shape as that of the flow rate measuring part. The flow rate measuring part and the flow path member are connected to the connection part in a vertical direction so that a side of an inflow entrance into which the fluid to be measured flows faces downward.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a gas flowmeter for measuring the flow rate of gas by propagating ultrasonic waves. Background technique [0002] The gas flowmeter measures the flow rate of gas by using, for example, a phenomenon in which the propagation time of ultrasonic waves or the propagation speed of ultrasonic waves changes according to the flow rate of gas (fluid). More specifically, the gas flow rate is measured by propagating ultrasonic waves through a gas flowing through a measuring tube provided in the middle of a flow path. [0003] Figure 10 Indicates a conventional gas flow meter. The device main body 101 includes an upper case 102 and a lower case 103 formed by pressing metal. An inlet pipe 104 and an outlet pipe 105 are arranged on the upper case 102 . The inlet pipe 104 opens inside the device main body 101 via a shutoff valve 106 . The ultrasonic flow rate measuring unit 108 is connected to the outlet pipe 105 via an L-shaped connectin...
