摘要:
An inductive proximity sensor for sensing the presence of target based on a change of inductance in the sensor. The sensor includes a coil and a core formed of a permeable material so as to form an electromagnetic field when the coil is electrically driven. The core has a base, a central post, an outer wall, and at least one slot. The central post extends distally from the base and through the coil and defines a distal end. The outer wall extends distally from the base and around the coil and also defines a distal end. The slot or slots are for enhancing the performance of the sensor by reducing eddy current losses in the core. Each slot extends at least partially along a path defined from the distal end of the outer wall to the base and from the base to the distal end of the central post.

A coated electric wire is wound around a detection circuit in a planar manner for the purpose of electrostatic shield. This winding is performed, for example, spirally in a single layer. In the case where there are further provided a detection circuit board including a detection circuit and a cylindrical case, the coated electric wire is wound around the detection circuit board in a planar manner, wherein the direction of the axis of the cylindrical surface accords with the direction of the axis of the case. Consequently, there can be provided a sensor device in which the detection circuit can be electrostatically shielded with ease.

A method of non-intrusive, inductive proximity sensing of a target through a conductive barrier comprises the steps of: disposing an inductive proximity sensor on one side of a barrier of conductive material; disposing a target on the other side of the barrier; determining an appropriate drive frequency for operating the proximity sensor based on the conductive material and thickness of the barrier; and operating the proximity sensor with the appropriate drive frequency to non-intrusively sense the proximity of the target through the conductive barrier. The method may include the steps of: varying the gap between the target and proximity sensor over a gap range; measuring the inductive output of the proximity sensor at the appropriate drive frequency and different gaps to obtain inductive output measurements at the different gaps; determining the operating induction bandwidth of the proximity sensor operated at approximately the appropriate drive frequency from the inductive output measurements at the different gaps; and using the determined induction bandwidth for proximity sensing of the target through the conductive barrier. The gap range may be based on a sensor/target gap variation during actuation for a particular application.

The invention relates to a fastening base for mounting an electrical device, particularly an electric sensor or proximity switch, having a reception opening for receiving a connecting piece of the electrical device and with a locking pivoted lever for fixing the connecting piece in the reception opening, the locking pivoted lever being pivotable into a locking position and an open position. The fastening base is characterized in that the locking pivoted lever has a projecting wedge and that the wedge is constructed for an at least partial positive engagement with a recess in the connecting piece when the locking pivoted lever is pivoted into the locking position.

The invention is related to a locking system (1) for a safety switch, comprising a read head (2) and an actuator (3), each of which is provided with a first or second componentry (10, 14) encompassing electrical and/or electronic components that interact with each other in an electrically contactless manner, thereby controlling the safety switch. The inventive locking system is characterized by the fact that the actuator (3) can be locked to the read head (2) by means of a switchable electromagnet (7) which interacts with a counterelement (12) and that the locking action is controlled by means of a sensor element (31, 32, 33, 34), the output signal of which depends on the magnetic field generated by the electromagnet (7).
