ABSTRACT:
The bulk flow meter comprises a baffle plate which is arranged inclined in the fall path of the bulk material to be measured and is carried by a rigid support which is mounted displaceably in the direction of a horizontal axis on at least two spring systems which are spaced apart from each other and secured on the one hand to the baffle plate support and on the other hand to the frame, each spring system having at least one pair of spring members arranged opposite each other on either side of the baffle plate support. Each spring member is formed by a corrugated diaphragm section with vertically extending corrugations. The corrugated diaphragms provide a mounting of the baffle plate support with high transverse stability so that it is possible to arrange the baffle plate without modifying the suspension optionally in the longitudinal direction of the baffle plate support or in the transverse direction laterally adjacent the baffle plate support.
