Summary of the invention
But in the structure that patent documentation 1～3 is recorded, in the time that sensor output signal is amplified, owing to having used the reference voltage of fixed voltage as amplifier, therefore the difference of sensor output signal and reference voltage is larger.For these reasons, for the signal that makes amplifier output is unlikely to saturated, need to the gain of amplifier be suppressed lowlyer, therefore exist and cannot improve the problem that detects gain.On the other hand, if the output signal of magnetic sensor element is carried out to differential amplification with bridge circuit, existence can cause the problem that cost significantly rises.
And, in the magnetic pattern detecting apparatus of this mode that multiple magnetic sensor element 40 of arranging along column direction Y is scanned and made medium 1 move, can be because of the translational speed of medium 1, the size of magnetic sensor element 40 on the moving direction X of medium 1, sweep velocity, and cause this when scanning in magnetic sensor element 40 under conducting state residing region (having marked the region to top-right oblique line) and while scanning next time magnetic sensor element 40 under conducting state, between residing region (having marked the region to bottom-right oblique line), produce clearance G, as shown in Figure 18 (c).For example, when the translational speed of medium 1 is 0.0016mm/ μ s, the sweep time of the magnetic sensor element on column direction Y is while being 200 μ s, after single pass completes, medium 1 moves 0.32mm, but, if in this case, magnetic sensor element 1 is of a size of 0.3mm on moving direction, this when scanning in magnetic sensor element 40 under conducting state residing region with on magnetic sensor element 40 can generation 0.02mm between residing region under conducting state while once scanning clearance G.Therefore,, for the region that is equivalent to clearance G in medium 1, just can not detect its magnetic characteristic by magnetic sensor element 40, thereby be difficult to detect magnetic pattern from all surfaces of medium 1 accurately.
On the other hand, the sensor sensing range having due to magnetic sensor element 40 is the grade on medium 1 times more than projected area in magnetic sensor element 40 conventionally, therefore, if with the sensor sensing range can coverage gap G, just can detect magnetic pattern from all surfaces of medium 1, but, even in this case, also can be because of the translational speed of medium 1, the size of the sensor sensing range of magnetic sensor element 40 on the moving direction X of medium 1, sweep velocity, and be difficult to avoid sensor sensing range in the time that this scans and on produce clearance G between sensor sensing range while once scanning.

(detailed structure of enlarging section 70)
Fig. 5 is the key diagram that is input to signal of amplifier etc. in the enlarging section 70 of magnetic pattern detecting apparatus 100 of first embodiment of the invention 1, Fig. 5 (a) is the key diagram that represents the waveform of excitation signal, sensor output signal and reference voltage, and 5 (b) are the key diagrams that represents with enlarging section, the difference of sensor output signal and reference voltage have been carried out the waveform after amplification.In Fig. 5 (a) and Fig. 5 (b), with solid line, L1 represents excitation signal, with solid line, L2 represents sensor output signal, and with solid line, L3 represents reference voltage, represents, with amplifier, the difference of sensor output signal and reference voltage has been carried out amplifying signal afterwards with solid line L4.
In the magnetic pattern detecting apparatus 100 of present embodiment, enlarging section 70 is as shown in Fig. 4 (b), have and multiple magnetic sensor element 40 corresponding multiple amplifiers 71 (prime amplifier) respectively, to described amplifier 71 input reference voltages and the sensor output signal exported from magnetic sensor element 40.Here, enlarging section 70 possesses and generates the signal that changes in linkage with the excitation signal reference voltage generating unit 72 as reference voltage, and in present embodiment, the signal generating to amplifier 71 input reference voltage generating units 72 is as reference voltage.

(detection principle)
Fig. 6 is the key diagram that represents the characteristic to the various magnetic inks that form on medium 1 in the magnetic pattern detecting apparatus 100 of first embodiment of the invention 1 etc.Fig. 7 is the key diagram that detects the principle that whether has magnetic pattern the medium 1 representing in the magnetic pattern detecting apparatus 100 of first embodiment of the invention 1 from being formed with different types of magnetic pattern.
First, the principle of judging the true and false of medium 1 at medium 1 in the time that the direction of the arrow X1 shown in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 moves is described.In present embodiment, in the magnetic regions 1a of medium 1, be formed with the multiple magnetic pattern that residual magnetic flux density Br and magnetic permeability μ are different.More specifically, in medium 1, be formed with and utilize the first magnetic pattern forming containing the magnetic ink printing of hard magnetic material and utilize the second magnetic pattern forming containing the magnetic ink printing of soft magnetic material.Here, contain the magnetic ink of hard magnetic material as utilized the residual magnetic flux density Br shown in magnetic hysteresis loop and magnetic permeability μ etc. in Fig. 6 (b1), the value that has applied the residual magnetic flux density Br behind magnetic field is higher, but magnetic permeability μ is lower.In contrast to this, contain the magnetic ink of soft magnetic material as shown in its magnetic hysteresis loop in Fig. 6 (c1), the value that has applied the residual magnetic flux density Br behind magnetic field is lower, but magnetic permeability μ is higher.
Thereby, as described below, as long as measure residual magnetic flux density Br and magnetic permeability μ, just can differentiate the material of magnetic ink.More specifically, because magnetic permeability μ is relevant to coercivity H, therefore in present embodiment, just measure residual magnetic flux density Br and coercivity H, the ratio of described residual magnetic flux density Br and coercivity H is because of the difference difference of magnetic ink (magnetic material).Thereby, can differentiate the material of magnetic ink.In addition, although the measured value of residual magnetic flux density Br and magnetic permeability μ (coercivity H) can be because of the distance change between deep or light, the medium 1 of ink and magnetic sensor device 20, but in present embodiment, because magnetic sensor device 20 is to measure residual magnetic flux density Br and magnetic permeability μ (coercivity H) at same position, therefore according to the ratio of residual magnetic flux density Br and coercivity H, can differentiate reliably the material of magnetic ink.
In the magnetic pattern detecting apparatus 100 of present embodiment, move and when the magnetic sensor device 20 along the direction shown in arrow X1 at medium 1, first, apply from magnetic field and apply magnetic field to medium 1 with the first magnet 31, be applied in the medium 1 behind magnetic field by magnetic sensor element 40.During this, as shown in Fig. 6 (a3), from the magnetic test coil 49 output signal corresponding with the BH curve of the sensor magnetic core 41 shown in Fig. 6 (a2) of magnetic sensor element 40.Thereby the first signal S1 exporting from the adding circuit 92 shown in Fig. 4 and the secondary signal S2 that exports from subtraction circuit 93 are respectively shown in Fig. 6 (a4).
Here,, if utilize the magnetic ink of the hard magnetic materials such as contain ferrite powder to form the first magnetic pattern on medium 1, described the first magnetic pattern, as shown in Fig. 6 (b1), has the residual magnetic flux density Br of high magnitude.Therefore, as shown in Fig. 7 (a1), apply when the magnet 30 when medium 1 has passed through magnetic field, the first magnetic pattern applies and becomes magnet with the magnetic field of magnet 30 because carrying out self-magnetic field.Therefore, the signal of exporting from the magnetic test coil 49 of magnetic sensor element 40, as shown in Fig. 6 (b2), because the first magnetic pattern is subject to direct current biasing, becomes the waveform shown in Fig. 6 (b3) and Fig. 7 (a2)., the crest voltage of signal S0 and valley point voltage, as shown in arrow A 1, A2, be offset in the same direction, and the side-play amount of crest voltage are different with the side-play amount of valley point voltage.And described signal S0 changes along with moving of medium 1.Thereby, the first signal S1 exporting from the adding circuit 92 shown in Fig. 4 as shown in Fig. 6 (b4), whenever the first magnetic pattern of medium 1 during by magnetic sensor element 40 with regard to change.Here, because the magnetic permeability μ of the first magnetic pattern by forming containing the magnetic ink of hard magnetic material is lower, therefore affect the crest voltage of signal S0 and the skew of valley point voltage, can be considered the residual magnetic flux density Br that only has the first magnetic pattern.Thereby, even the first magnetic pattern of medium 1 by magnetic sensor element 40, the secondary signal S2 exporting from the subtraction circuit 93 shown in Fig. 4 can change yet, identical with the signal shown in Fig. 6 (b4).
In contrast to this, if utilize containing the magnetic ink of the soft magnetic materials such as soft magnetism stainless steel powder and form the second magnetic pattern on medium, the magnetic hysteresis loop of described the second magnetic pattern is as shown in Fig. 6 (c1), through the inner side of the B-H loop by the first magnetic pattern forming containing the magnetic ink of hard magnetic material shown in Fig. 6 (b1), the value of residual magnetic flux density Br is lower.Therefore,, even if medium 1 applies with after magnet 30 by magnetic field, the value of the residual magnetic flux density Br of the second magnetic pattern is still lower.But, because the magnetic permeability μ of the second magnetic pattern is higher, therefore, as shown in Fig. 7 (b1), play the effect as magnetic.Therefore, the signal of exporting from the magnetic test coil 49 of magnetic sensor element 40 is as shown in Fig. 6 (c2), due to the existence of the second magnetic pattern, large thereby magnetic permeability μ becomes, correspondingly become the waveform shown in Fig. 6 (c3) and Fig. 7 (b2).That is, the crest voltage of signal S0 is moved towards a higher lateral deviation as shown in arrow A 3, and valley point voltage moves towards a lower lateral deviation as shown in arrow A 4.Now, the side-play amount of crest voltage and its absolute value of the side-play amount of valley point voltage are roughly equal.And described signal S0 changes along with moving of medium 1.Thereby, the secondary signal S2 exporting from the subtraction circuit 93 shown in Fig. 4 as shown in Fig. 6 (c4), whenever the second magnetic pattern of medium 1 during by magnetic sensor element 40 with regard to change.Here,, because the residual magnetic flux density Br of the second magnetic pattern by forming containing the magnetic ink of soft magnetic material is lower, therefore the skew of the crest voltage to signal and valley point voltage exerts an influence, and can be considered the magnetic permeability μ that only has the second magnetic pattern.Thereby, even if the second magnetic pattern of medium 1 passes through magnetic sensor element 40, the also not change of first signal S1 of exporting from the adding circuit 92 shown in Fig. 4, identical with the signal shown in Fig. 6 (c4).
Thereby, in the magnetic pattern detecting apparatus 100 of present embodiment, the first signal S1 obtaining the peak value of the signal of exporting from magnetic sensor element 40 being added with valley with adding circuit 92 is the signal corresponding with the residual magnetic flux density value of magnetic pattern, if monitor described first signal S1, can detect and whether have the first magnetic pattern being formed by the magnetic ink that contains hard magnetic material and form position.And the secondary signal S2 obtaining the peak value of the signal of exporting from magnetic sensor element 40 being subtracted each other with valley with subtraction circuit 93 is the signal corresponding with the magnetic permeability μ of magnetic pattern, if monitor described secondary signal S2, can detect and whether have the second magnetic pattern being formed by the magnetic ink that contains soft magnetic material and form position.Thereby, can be according to residual magnetic flux density value and magnetic permeability value the two identify whether to exist in medium 1 and apply each magnetic pattern of the multiple magnetic pattern that residual magnetic flux density Br and magnetic permeability μ are different behind magnetic field and form position.
(the main effect of the first embodiment 1)

(scanning motion of magnetic sensor element 40)
Figure 14 is the key diagram that represents scanning motion of the magnetic pattern detecting apparatus 100 of second embodiment of the invention 1 etc., Figure 14 (a) is the key diagram that plane earth represents the situation that magnetic sensor element 40 arranges on column direction Y, Figure 14 (b) amplifies to the layout of magnetic sensor element the key diagram representing, Figure 14 (c) is the key diagram of residing position mobile situation on medium 1 while representing that in the scan period, the magnetic sensor element in conducting state scans at every turn, Figure 14 (d) is that residing position mobile situation on medium 1 is further amplified the key diagram of expression when in the scan period, the magnetic sensor element in conducting state scans at every turn.Figure 15 is the key diagram that represents the operation condition of the circuit part of the magnetic pattern detecting apparatus 100 of second embodiment of the invention 1, Figure 15 (a) represents the frequency of detection signal and samples to keep the key diagram of the relation between action, and Figure 15 (b) is the key diagram that represents the frequency characteristic of the to handle averagely portion 96 shown in A/D converter 91 and Figure 13 (a).
As shown in Figure 14 (a) and Figure 14 (b), in the magnetic pattern detecting apparatus 100 of present embodiment, with the orthogonal column direction Y (medium Width) of the moving direction X of medium 1 on, be arranged with 20 magnetic sensor element 40 and be respectively used to channel C H1～CH20, by on column direction Y, these 20 magnetic sensor element 40 being scanned, detect magnetic pattern from the whole Width of medium 1.That is to say, as long as multiple magnetic sensor element 40 are scanned on column direction, just can detect respectively data by 20 of a channel C H1～CH20 magnetic sensor element 40.And medium 1 is that (moving direction X) is mobile in the row direction.Therefore, can detect magnetic pattern from whole medium 1.
Adopt the magnetic pattern detecting apparatus 100 of said structure in the present embodiment, the translational speed of the medium being transmitted by connecting gear 10 1 is made as to v, and (mm/ μ s), the size of magnetic sensor element 40 on moving direction X is made as T (mm), time per unit ta (scanning times that μ s) scans magnetic sensor element 40 on described column direction Y is made as N time, and movement speed v, unit interval ta, size T and scanning times N meet following relational expression:
(v×ta)≤(T×N)
In formula, N is more than 2 integer.
In formula, unit interval ta is a scan period for detection of a row magnetic pattern of medium 1.Therefore, in present embodiment, in a scan period, on column direction Y, magnetic sensor element 40 is carried out to N scanning, all data that obtain by described N scanning based on magnetic sensor element 40, detect a row magnetic pattern.
More specifically, in the magnetic pattern detecting apparatus 100 of present embodiment, movement speed v, unit interval ta, size T and scanning times N etc. are for example set as following condition:
Movement speed v=0.0016mm/ μ s of medium;
Unit interval ta (scan period)=200 μ s (5kHz);
Size T (thickness the size)=0.3mm of magnetic sensor element 40 on the moving direction X of medium 1;
Scanning times N=4 in unit interval ta (scan period).
Thereby, one scan period medium 1 displacement etc. become following condition:
A scan period medium displacement=0.32mm of 1;
Displacement=the 0.08mm of single pass medium 1;
Scan each time required time=50 μ s (20kHz);
Magnetic sensor element 40 in single pass in time=2.5 of conducting state μ s.
If above-mentioned these conditions, owing to becoming following setting value:
(v×ta)＝0.32mm
(T×N)＝1.2mm
Therefore fully meet following relational expression:
(v×ta)≤(T×N)
In formula, N is more than 2 integer.
Thereby if magnetic sensor element 40 is scanned along column direction Y under these conditions, after single pass finishes, medium 1 moves 0.08mm, but the size of magnetic sensor element 1 on moving direction is 0.3mm.Therefore,, when this scans and scans next time, the Deng Bei view field of magnetic sensor element 40 on medium 1 overlaps on moving direction X.
More specifically, as shown in Figure 14 (c) and Figure 14 (d).In Figure 14 (c) and Figure 14 (d), represent the region (the Deng Bei view field of the magnetic sensor element 40 of using in the channel C H1 of conducting state on medium 1) at magnetic sensor element 40 place under conducting state that channel C H1 uses in the time scanning for the first time in n scan period with solid line SCH (n, 1).And represent the region at magnetic sensor element 40 place under conducting state that channel C H1 uses in the time scanning for the second time in this scan period (n scan period) with the single-point SCH (n, 2) that rules.Represent the region at magnetic sensor element 40 place under conducting state that channel C H1 uses in the time scanning for the third time in this scan period (n scan period) with dotted line SCH (n, 3).Represent the region at magnetic sensor element 40 place under conducting state that in this scan period (n scan period), channel C H1 uses in the time scanning for the 4th time with double dot dash line SCH (n, 4).In addition, in the time of each scanning, the region at magnetic sensor element 40 place under conducting state is on same position, to move on column direction Y at medium Width, but in order easily to identify the position that makes each region, in Figure 14 (c) and Figure 14 (d), the position in each region is slightly offset on column direction.In Figure 14 (c) and Figure 14 (d), as the region at magnetic sensor element 40 place under conducting state in n+1 scan period, only show the region at magnetic sensor element 40 places that in n+1 scan period, channel C H1 uses in the time scanning for the first time.
In present embodiment, owing to meeting above-mentioned relation formula, therefore within a scan period, the region at magnetic sensor element 40 places while scanning for the first time, the region at magnetic sensor element 40 places overlaps on moving direction X when scanning for the second time.Too, the region at magnetic sensor element 40 places when this scanning, the region at magnetic sensor element 40 places on moving direction X overlaps when scanning next time while scanning for the second time and between while scanning for the third time, while scanning for the third time and between when the 4th scanning.Thereby, this when scanning and while next time scanning, the Deng Bei view field of the position of magnetic sensor element 40 in conducting state on medium 1 when this scans, and between the Deng Bei view field of the position of magnetic sensor element 40 in conducting state on medium 1, can not produce gap while once scanning.The magnetic sensor element 40 that other passage is used too.
In addition, by in this scan period (n scan period) for the first time～region SCH1 (n) that the region at the 4th magnetic sensor element 40 place under conducting state of using of when scanning channel C H1 obtains after adding up to, by solid line SCH (n, 1) region shown in, single-point line SCH (n, 2) region shown in, dotted line SCH (n, 3) region shown in, double dot dash line SCH (n, 2) region that the region shown in obtains after adding up to, in region SCH1 (n) and next scan period (n+1 scan period) in the time scanning for the first time the region (solid line CH1 (n+1 at magnetic sensor element 40 place under conducting state, 1) region shown in) on moving direction, overlap.Thereby, the Deng Bei view field of the position of magnetic sensor element 40 in conducting state on medium 1 while scanning the last time in this scan period, and next scan period in the time scanning for the first time, between the Deng Bei view field of the position of magnetic sensor element 40 in conducting state on medium 1, can not produce gap.In addition, the magnetic sensor element 40 that other passage is used too.
Above-mentioned scanning motion is as shown in Figure 13 (b), in a scan period, the scanning that makes the magnetic sensor element 40 of each channel C H1～CH20 become successively conducting state is carried out four times altogether, A/D converter 91 shown in Figure 13 (a) and above-mentioned action become the sequential of conducting state in linkage according to each magnetic sensor element 40, the signal that each passage was exported magnetic sensor element 40 with the sampling period (sample frequency=20kHz) of 50 μ s converts digital signal to.
