Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A machine arrangement, comprising at least one carrier, wherein a glass fiber is connected with the machine arrangement. To allow a proper measurement of stresses even at curved surfaces of the machine arrangement, as it is typical in the case of a carrier being attached to bearing rings, the connection between the glass fiber and the machine arrangement is established by a metallic material which metal material is connected by material bonding with the machine arrangement as well as with the glass fiber.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. An arrangement comprising a glass fiber connected to a carrier, the carrier being configured to be welded to a machine part, wherein the glass fiber is coated with a first metal, the first metal being materially bonded to the glass fiber, wherein the carrier includes a surface and a groove in the surface and wherein the glass fiber coated with the first metal is located in the groove, and including a brazing material in the groove materially bonded to the carrier and filling the groove to at least a level of the surface and holding the glass fiber coated with the first metal in the groove, and including a metallic material different than the first metal, the metallic material encasing the first metal, wherein the first metal consists essentially of chromium or consists essentially of nickel and wherein the metallic material is an alloy of chromium and nickel, and wherein the metallic material is materially bonded to the first metal and materially bonded to the brazing material.
