料の粘度を求めるように構成されたものである。BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Various methods are conventionally known for the measurement of physical properties, particularly the viscosity of a fluid (liquid). For example, methods such as a capillary type, a falling body type, a rotary type, and a vibration type are known. Among them, the vibration type viscosity measuring device is characterized in that it is easy to operate and handle and has high accuracy. In particular, the tuning fork type vibration viscometer is said to be excellent. This tuning-fork type vibration viscometer forces a pair of leaf springs with a sensitive plate at the tip to resonate forcibly in opposite phases at a constant frequency, causing a resonance between the sensitive plate and the liquid sample inserted in the liquid sample. The difference in the shear resistance that occurs in the sample is detected as a change in the amplitude value of the leaf spring (sensitive plate), and the viscosity of the sample is obtained by utilizing the fact that there is an inverse proportional relationship between the amplitude value and the viscous resistance. It is configured as follows.
【0003】すなわち、板バネの振動は、音叉型振動系
の採用により反力を抑え、常時安定した正弦振動を継続
するから、1自由度の粘性減衰強制振動系として取り扱
うことができ、これは次の微分方程式により表せる。That is, since the vibration of the leaf spring suppresses the reaction force by adopting the tuning fork type vibration system and continuously maintains a stable sine vibration, it can be handled as a viscous damping forced vibration system having one degree of freedom. It can be expressed by the following differential equation.

ば、振幅値と粘性減衰係数の関係は逆比例関係にあると
言える。Here, the inertial force and the restoring force balance each other because the leaf spring resonates and vibrate with each other, and as long as forced vibration is given to the leaf spring, the vibration continues with a change in the amplitude value according to the viscous damping force. .. Further, the amplitude value at the resonance point is given by the following equation, and it can be said that the relationship between the amplitude value and the viscous damping coefficient is inversely proportional if the excitation force and the natural frequency of the vibration system are constant.

かも測定粘度範囲が約1mPa・s〜100,000m
Pa・sまで可能であるといった特長が有る。If the vibration propagation distance in the direction perpendicular to the plane of the sensitive plate inserted in the sample is small, the viscous damping coefficient has the same dimension as the vibration velocity and the accompanying strain velocity of the sample. It is considered to be present and can be said to be proportional to the absolute viscosity. Therefore, if the relational expression between the viscosity and the amplitude value is obtained using the sample of which the viscosity is known, the viscosity of the unknown sample can be obtained by measuring the amplitude value. And
This measurement method is highly accurate within ± 2% and has a viscosity range of about 1 mPa · s to 100,000 m.
It has the feature that it can handle even Pas.

For the above viscosity measurement method using a meter A,
It turned out that there was such a problem. The above measuring method is applied to the leaf spring (sensitive plate).
Keep the excitation force F constant and measure the amplitude value x at that time.
Is a method of converting into a viscosity value. Therefore, applied
Specific excitation force F0The amplitude value x is too large depending on
Amplitude value x is large
If it is too small or too small, there will be problems in measurement accuracy.
Therefore, in order to obtain a wide range of measured viscosity, as shown in FIG.
In addition, it must have a plurality of set exciting force F values. This
Here, if the measurement sample is a Newtonian fluid, a special problem
But not when measuring non-Newtonian fluids
When the range is different, that is, the set excitation force F value changes
There is a problem that the apparent viscosities appear differently. The above measurement method is for measurement in one measurement range.
The viscosity range is, for example, 10 n-1mPa · s-10nmPa
・ Because it must be set by dividing it like s,
Even if there are multiple measurement ranges,
Basically there is only one point, and the measured sample is Newton
We also got the knowledge of whether it is a fluid or a non-Newtonian fluid.
I can't. The above measuring method is based on a specific excitation force F0Viscous resistance under
Measure the amplitude value x according to the resistance and convert this amplitude value x to viscosity.
Since it is a calculation method, multiple measurement ranges are provided.
In that case, as shown in FIG.
A calibration curve is required, and handling is troublesome.

条件下での見掛けの粘度を求められる特長が奏される。That is, the viscosity could be obtained by measuring the amplitude value x under a constant excitation force F 0. According to the above formula (2), the constant amplitude value x 0
It is understood that it is also possible to obtain the viscosity by measuring the excitation force F under. By the way, in the conventional measurement of viscosity, the amplitude value x under a constant excitation force F 0 is measured,
Since this is converted into a viscosity value, when the viscosity is small, the amplitude value x may be too large even if the exciting force F 0 is not large, and conversely, the viscosity is large. In this case, the amplitude value x may be too small even if the exciting force F 0 is not small, and although it is necessary to have a plurality of set exciting force F 0 values, the constant amplitude value x 0 is set as described above. In the present invention in which the vibrating force F necessary for obtaining is measured and converted into a viscosity value, there is no defect as described above, and even when a non-Newtonian fluid is measured, It has the characteristics of requiring an apparent viscosity.

In contrast to mPa · s, which must be set separately, the excitation force F required to obtain a constant amplitude value x 0
In the method of measuring, the above-mentioned restrictions do not occur, a plurality of calibration curves are not required, the viscosity is obtained by one calibration curve, and the amplitude value x 0 is changed (a plurality of amplitude values, for example, When measured (with x 01 , x 02 , x 03 ), it is possible to obtain the knowledge whether the fluid is a Newtonian fluid or a non-Newtonian fluid.

粘度が測定される。According to the present invention having the above-mentioned structure, the vibrating force F necessary for obtaining the constant amplitude value x 0 is measured for the viscosity, that is, the viscosity is obtained by controlling the amplitude value. Therefore, the amplitude value x under a constant excitation force F 0 is measured, that is, the defect in obtaining the viscosity by the excitation force control, that is, the complexity of having to have a plurality of set excitation force values, Viscosity can be measured with only one measurement.

る。The fact that the viscosity can be measured by measuring only one point means that the viscosity can be measured at the same time, for example, from 10 n-1 mPa · s to 10 n.
This is because it is not necessary to divide the measurement like mPa · s, and a plurality of calibration curves are not required, and the viscosity can be obtained by one calibration curve, so that the measurement can be performed very easily. Furthermore, the amplitude value of the sensitive plate is, for example, 50 mV, 100 m
When measured with a plurality of amplitude values (not limited to three points) such as V and 150 mV, it is possible to find out whether this fluid is a Newtonian fluid, and further, a pseudoplastic fluid,

Alternatively, it is possible to obtain a general knowledge of whether it is a dilatant fluid.

Measure the amplitude value at, that is, the defect when determining the viscosity by the excitation force control, that is, the complexity of having to have a plurality of set excitation force value is eliminated, the viscosity is measured by only one point of measurement, and The fact that the viscosity can be measured by measuring only one point means that the viscosity can be measured at the same time, for example, 10
n-1 is that it is not necessary to measure separated as mPa · s~10 n mPa · s, without the need for multiple calibration curves, because the viscosity is determined with a single calibration curve, the measurement is very It can be easily performed, and further, when the amplitude value of the sensitive plate is measured with a plurality of amplitude values such as 50 mV, 100 mV, and 150 mV, the knowledge as to whether this fluid is a Newtonian fluid can be obtained. It has the following features.
