ABSTRACT:
A temperature sensing transducer has a mechanically vibrating member whose rigidity varies with temperature, changing the resonant frequency. An output signal is generated having a frequency controlled by the vibrating member. The rigidity is caused to vary with temperature by making the vibrating member from a material whose modulus of elasticity is sensitive to temperature changes in the desired measurement range. Also by making the vibrating member of a bimetal shaped as a frusto-conical disk, the rigidity of the disk changes with temperature due to internal strains.
