Gas meter

1. A gas meter comprising a meter housing with a gas inlet with associated connecting piece for a gas supply line and a gas outlet with associated connecting piece for a gas discharge line, wherein the meter housing is a bellows gas meter housing in which a measuring device comprising a housing with an integrated micro-thermal flow measuring sensor is arranged on the gas outlet, which housing is connected in a gas-tight manner to the connecting piece on the outlet side or to the meter housing in the area of the gas outlet.

2. The gas meter as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the housing has a cylindrical connecting section, via which it is connected to the likewise one cylindrical connecting section of the connecting piece, projecting into the interior of the meter housing, or directly to the housing wall having the gas outlet.

3. The gas meter as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a pressure reducer is arranged in the housing and a bypass leading past the former is provided in which bypass the flow measuring sensor is arranged.

4. The gas meter as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the bypass opens in the area of the connecting section on the connecting piece side and if appropriate communicates with an aperture in the connecting section on the connecting piece side or directly with the gas outlet.

5. The gas meter as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the measuring device communicates with an indicating unit on the housing side.

6. The gas meter as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the meter housing has an upper housing section containing the gas inlet and the gas outlet and the measuring device, and a lower housing section separated from the former in a gas-tight manner and in which a transmitting and receiving device used for the wire-free reception and the wire-free transmission of data is provided.

7. The gas meter as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the upper housing section consists of metal and is separated from the lower housing section in a gas-tight manner via a dividing wall consisting of metal, while the lower housing section consists of plastic.

8. The gas meter as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a control valve that can preferably be controlled via a radio signal is provided, via which the gas supply to or from the gas meter can be shut off.

9. The gas meter as claimed in claim 8 , wherein the control valve is provided on the housing of the measuring device.

10. A measuring device for a gas meter as claimed in claim 1 , comprising a preferably cylindrical housing, in which a pressure reducer and a bypass leading past the latter and in which a micro-thermal flow measuring sensor is arranged, is provided, and on which housing connecting or communicating means for connecting or communicating with an external indicating or data transmitting device are provided.

11. The gas meter as claimed in claim 6 , wherein said data is measured data.
