Sealed pressure-measuring member
First Claim
1. A pressure-measurement member, comprising:
- a pressure-measurement surface functionally connected to a test body;
a sealed pressure-measurement housing in which the test body is arranged, the pressure-measurement surface being carried by a wall of the sealed pressure-measurement housing and positioned at a distance from the test body, the sealed pressure-measurement housing and a support of the test body delimiting an internal space, which is a space internal to the sealed pressure-measurement housing, and which is a space in which the test body is arranged;
a pressure-transmission object that transmits a pressure between the pressure-measurement surface and the test body, the pressure-transmission object including a material that is in one or both of a liquid phase and a gel phase during a measurement, the material occupying all of the internal space; and
a processor for processing pressure data detected by the test body, the processor being arranged in the sealed pressure-measurement housing and being connected to an energy source.

Abstract
A pressure-measurement device includes a pressure-measurement surface, which is functionally connected to a test body, and a sealed pressure-measurement housing in which the test body is arranged. The pressure-measurement surface is carried by a deformable wall of the sealed pressure-measurement housing lying at a distance from the test body. The sealed pressure-measurement housing delimits an internal space, which is a space internal to the sealed housing. The pressure-measurement device also includes a pressure-transmission object that transmits the pressure between the pressure-measurement surface and the test body. The pressure-transmission object includes a substantially incompressible material occupying all of the internal space. The pressure-measurement device further includes an energy source and a processor for processing pressure data detected by the test body. The processor is arranged in the sealed pressure-measurement housing.
