で表わされ、qが計量誤差となる。Prior Art FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of an oval flowmeter, in which 1 is a measuring chamber, 10 and 20 are oval gears,
Reference numerals 11 and 21 denote rotation axes of the oval gears 10 and 20, and as is well known, the oval flowmeter rotates the gears (in the illustrated example) in a vertical position depending on the difference between the inflow and outflow pressures of the fluid to be measured. In this case, the gear 20) is rotated in the direction of the arrow, and a volume of fluid four times the volume V of the metering chamber is delivered per rotation. In other words, the amount of fluid passing within a certain predetermined time is Q, the rotation speed is n, and the amount of leakage from the gap between the gear and the wall of the measuring chamber is q.
Then, it is expressed as Q=4Vn+q, where q is the measurement error.

に向上させることができる。Structure FIG. 2 is an enlarged partial view of the main part for explaining one embodiment of the present invention, that is, the section A shown in FIG. The case is shown in which it is engaged with the short diameter portion 20b of. As mentioned above, in oval gears, fluid leaks through the gap between the gear and the wall surface of the measuring chamber while the gears are meshing.
This causes measurement errors. The present invention was made to reduce this leakage flow rate, and the second
The teeth shown in the shaded area in the diagram, that is, a part of the teeth on the long diameter part of the oval gear, and a part of the teeth on the short diameter part that mesh with these teeth are cut out, and the long diameter part after cutting is shown in Fig. 3. As shown in the figure, a porous plate 30 made of a honeycomb plate, metal foam, resin foam, etc. is provided, and by doing so, a labyrinth effect is created between the long diameter part of the oval gear and the wall surface of the measuring chamber. This reduces the amount of leakage. In addition, Figure 4 shows
This is a view seen from the - line direction of FIG. 3, and is a view when a honeycomb plate is used as the porous plate. In the illustrated example, the tooth 10a on the long diameter part is removed leaving the central part 10a'. Conversely, the central portion may be cut off and both ends may be left intact. Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 3, it is also possible to provide porous plates 30' such as honeycomb plates, metal foam, etc., which have a labyrinth effect, on both sides of the gear. The amount of leakage from the gap with the indoor wall can be reduced, and therefore, the measurement accuracy can be further improved.

Furthermore, in the present invention, even if a porous plate is used, it is easy to process and maintain surface accuracy, so it is possible to accurately regulate the gap between opposing surfaces that produces a labyrinth effect.
