摘要:
A proximity switch assembly (10) for signaling the location of a movable member (36) at either of opposite end limits of movement relative to a stationary frame (44, 46) includes a compact elongate housing (58) adapted to be mounted on the frame to extend along the path of movement of a power driven member (32), such as the piston rod of a hydraulic cylinder, which shifts the movable member between its end limits. The proximity switch is fixedly mounted in the housing and carries a switch actuating member (68) mounted for sliding movement over a relatively short distance sufficient to move an actuating target (74) into and out of actuating proximity of an air core proximity sensing coil (120) within the housing. Lost motion abutment shoulders (70, 72) on the switch actuation member and power driven member (54) move into engagement with each other as a power driven member approaches each end of its stroke.

A proximity switch adapted to be threaded into a pressure cylinder, with the proximity switch including a sensor part insertable into a bore or opening of a cylinder wall of the pressure cylinder for detecting a position of the piston. A housing of the proximity switch includes a metal casing for accommodating a sensor part of the proximity switch, a front cap for sealing the metal casing, an a housing section attached to the metal casing and including a cable connection portion. A continuously extending output collar is provided at a rear end of the metal casing, with the collar being adapted to be fixedly clamped against the cylinder wall by a mounting gland extending behind a rear face thereof or by a coupling ring.

A contactless inductive proximity switch contains an oscillator which is formed of a parallel arrangement of an oscillator coil and an oscillator capacitor connected to an integrated circuit. The oscillator coil is provided with a relatively few number of wire turns so as to occupy a relatively small portion of the volume in the cup core. The capacity of the oscillator capacitor is selected to match the oscillator coil. A hard water is retained within the cup core by a casting resin, and protects the oscillator coil from damage.

A high-frequency oscillation type proximity switch comprising a resonance circuit in which a detection coil is used as a pickup for sensing the approach of an object thereto and a resonance capacitor is disposed at a position very close to the detection coil so that the resistance of a cable connecting the resonance circuit to its associated oscillation circuit can be substantially ignored in the resonance circuit.
摘要:
Electrical sensing apparatus such as proximity switches and vibration pickups of the type in which the distance between an inductor in the tank circuit of an oscillator and a metallic object in the field of the inductor is indicated by the amplitude at the output of the oscillator. The apparatus incorporates means adapted to compensate the output and/or sensitivity of the oscillator for temperature variations in either the inductor or the oscillator circuitry. Temperature compensation is achieved by means of thermistors, one of which is in series with the inductor and the other of which is in the oscillator network.
摘要:
An eddy current sensing device wherein lines of flux are passed in one direction through a stainless steel membrane. The membrane is specially heat treated such that it collimates and permits passage of generated lines of flux yet provides an effective environmental shield that will allow operation even when the device is subjected to temperatures of up to 1,400* F. and pressures of up to 3,000 p.s.i. An impedance comparator circuit, including measuring and reference coils having virtually identical characteristics, is used to operate a meter to thereby indicate proximity and/or characteristics of conductive materials sensed. The magnetic flux of the measuring coil is shielded and collimated to provide localized sensing and reflected impedance variations between the two coils, which comprise legs of a bridge circuit, are detected and translated to distance, presence or other characteristic measurements, as represented by the output signal of the sensing device.

The present disclosure relates to a proximity sensor having a coil (15) for generating a magnetic field and a sensor circuit (62) for detecting variations of the magnetic field caused by an external object, the sensor circuit (62) comprising at least one semiconductor component (36, 37, 67, 69, 70, 71) mounted on a circuit board (17), wherein the coil (15) and the circuit board (17) are arranged in a housing (2) through which the magnetic field is transmittable.
