TANK FOR FUEL TRANSPORT, CONTAINING ONE CAPACITIVE INTERFACE LEVEL SENSOR Russian patent published in 2022 - IPC B65D90/48 B65D88/02 G01F23/26 

FIELD: measurements.

SUBSTANCE: invention is intended for measuring the levels of interfaces between media in various industries. The tank for transporting fuel contains a capacitive level sensor of the media interface. The sensor contains a base and a sensitive element of the sensor. The base contains the first part containing a niche with a cover for hermetic placement of an electronic computing unit and a hole for the output cable of the electronic computing unit, and the second part, which has holes for embedded bushings in the center in the region of the first part, while having holes for fasteners on the side surface, and ventilation holes on the side surface. The sensitive element of the sensor is a housing for electrodes, which is a metal profile formed by connecting several tubes to each other, containing a stiffening element connecting the adjoining mentioned tubes of the profile. Each profile tube contains a slot axially aligned with said corresponding ventilation hole on the side surface of said collar part.

EFFECT: technical result is an increase in the reliability and manufacturability of the design and, as a consequence, an increase in the accuracy of measurements of the level of the interface between media.
