ABSTRACT:
It is an object to provide an ultrasonic flow amount measuring device in which a direction and position of a transducer can be accurately fixed, thereby improving workability such as a reduction in working time. In order to attain the object, ultrasonic transducers20are fixed with a proper interval therebetween using a positioning portion41attached to a positioning frame40. The position adjustment of the wave transducer20is automatically carried out through a positioning spring25band the positioning portion41. A guide frame30can be mounted at a proper position on a conduit pipe10irrespective of the installation of the wave transducer. The guide frame30is mounted without paying attention to an interval between the ultrasonic transducers and coating an acoustic coupling medium on the conduit pipe, so that selection of a setup place, etc. can be freely performed. After pre-assembly, the required acoustic coupling medium is coated on the wave ultrasonic transducers, and the positioning frame40is attached to the guide frame30, so that the right directions and positions can be applied to the wave ultrasonic transducers.
