Abstract

Figur 1 zeigt den beschriebenen Infrarotlicht Objektmel­ der. 1 stellt einen willkürlichen Generator dar. Über Leitung 2 wird mit diesem Signal eine Infrarotlichtquelle 3 gesteuert. Dadurch strahlt 3 Infrarotlicht aus, dass auf die eine oder an­ dere Weise mit dem genannten Signal von 1 moduliert ist. Wenn Infrarotlicht ausgestrahlt wird, reflektiert dies gegen alle Objekte mit einer ziemlich festen Form, wie Objekt 5. Das Infrarotlicht von 3 fällt als Lichtstrahl 4 auf Objekt 5, wird re­ flektiert, und fällt als Lichtstrahl 6 auf den Eingang des Infra­ rotlichtempfängers 7. Bei der Erfindung wird nicht ein einzel­ ner Lichtstrahl, sondern ein räumliches Lichtbündel mit einem willkürlichen Winkel über 3 ausgestrahlt. Somit wird der betroffene Raum soweit wie möglich mit dem von 3 ausgestrahlten Infrarotlicht ausgefüllt. Empfänger 7, in Figur 1, empfängt die totale Infrarotlichtreflexion der Objekte, die im betreffenden Raum das Infrarotlicht nach Empfänger 7 zurückstrahlen. Am Ausgang des Demodulators 8 wird ein elektrisches Signal stehen, dessen Niveau ein Mass für das totale empfangene reflektierte demodulierte Rauminfra­ rotlicht ist, das von 3 in einem bestimmten Raum gestrahlt wird. Mit einem Niveaudetektor hinter Demodulator 8 in Figur 1, kann unterschieden werden zwischen einer Situation, wobei der aktive Infrarotlicht-Objektmelder reagiert und einer wobei er nicht reagieren soll. Dies bedeutet dass der aktive Infrarotlicht-Objektmelder für jede räumliche Situation, wobei er nicht zu reagieren braucht, eingestellt werden kann. Wenn jetzt im betreffenden Raum ein Objekt im Raum hinzu­ gefügt wird, wird das totale reflektierende demodulierte In­ frarotlicht an Intensität auf Infrarotlichtempfänger 7 zuneh­ men. Dies bedeutet, dass am Ausgang des Demodulators 8, in Figur 1, ein grösseres Signal steht, dessen Amplitude pro­ portional zur Intensität, des auf Infrarotlichtempfängerstufe 7 hineinkommenden demodulierten Lichtes ist. Niveaudetek­ tor 9 kann so eingestellt werden, dass auf 10 eine elektrische Signaländerung stattfindet. Dies bedeutet, dass sich im Raum, in dem 3 das Infrarotlicht ausstrahlt, ein oder mehrere Objekte befinden, die eine elektrische Signaländerung auf 10 verursachen. Die Schaltung arbeitet stets so, dass das Ausgangssignal des Demodulators 8 ein Mass für das totale, aus dem betreffenden Raum empfangende demodulierte re­ flektierende Infrarotlicht auf 7 ist. FIG. 1 shows the infrared light object described the. 1 represents an arbitrary generator. Via line 2 an infrared light source 3 is controlled with this signal. This emits 3 infrared light that on one or the other which is modulated with said signal of FIG. 1. When infrared light is emitted, this reflects against all objects with a fairly solid shape, like object 5. That Infrared light from 3 falls as light beam 4 on object 5, right inflects, and falls as light beam 6 on the entrance of the infra red light receiver 7. In the invention is not a single ner beam of light, but a spatial beam of light broadcast at an arbitrary angle over 3. Thus the affected room as far as possible with that of 3 emitted infrared light filled. Receiver 7, in figure 1, receives the total infrared light reflection of the objects that in the room in question the infrared light after receiver 7 reflect back. At the output of the demodulator 8 is a electrical signal, the level of which is a measure of that total received reflected demodulated room infra is red light that radiates from 3 in a certain room becomes. With a level detector behind demodulator 8 in Figure 1, can be distinguished between a situation, the active infrared light detector responds and one whereby he should not react. This means that the active one Infrared light object detector for every spatial situation, whereby it does not have to react, can be adjusted. If now add an object in the room in the room is added, the total reflective demodulated In infrared light increasing in intensity on infrared light receiver 7 men. This means that at the output of the demodulator 8, in Figure 1, there is a larger signal, the amplitude of each proportional to the intensity of that at infrared light receiver level 7 incoming demodulated light. Niveaudetek gate 9 can be set so that 10 is an electrical Signal change takes place. This means that in Room in which 3 emits infrared light, one or more Objects that have an electrical signal change to 10 cause. The circuit always works in such a way that Output signal of the demodulator 8 a measure of the total, demodulated re receiving from the room in question infra-red infrared light at 7.
