Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for detecting a electronic security element provided article in a surveillance zone with at least one transmitter device that emits an alternating magnetic field, that the electronic security element for sending a characteristic Signal excites, and with at least one receiving device that is receiving of the characteristic signal triggers an alarm.
- Such a device is known from DE-A-2 628 644, which also discloses that the transmitting device has a coil with several turns.
- Devices for the purpose of electronic article surveillance are now in Department stores and warehouses widely used. By installing such Equipment, inventory losses caused by theft can be reduce significantly. Such devices are usually in the Exit area of department stores and warehouses to find the illicit Remove electronically secured goods from the sales or storage area display.
- One of the factors that decisively determine the detection rate of an electronically secured article is the width of the zone to be monitored.
- a spatially compact arrangement of detector gates in the entrance and exit area disturbs the visual impression that the customer gains when entering the department store: it suggests confinement and confinement. This makes the entrance area uninviting for customers. This impression is reinforced if the detector gates are not transparent.
- the closely spaced detector gates prevent through traffic in the entrance and exit areas.
- the invention has for its object to propose a device sufficiently high detection rate within a wide surveillance zone ensures. Furthermore, the invention provides a solution to the problem. the impression mine from narrowness in the surveillance zone.
- the invention creates a Solution to meet the two conflicting requirements: wider Surveillance zone and sufficiently high detection rate.
- the transmitter device be a coil with several turns has that the turns are substantially in one plane and that the Windings are divided into at least two groups, the two groups are arranged at a certain distance from each other.
- the field strength of the magnetic field in the monitoring zone can be increased considerably without the energy consumption increasing with respect to a corresponding device which does not show the spatial separation of the groups of turns. Viewed from the other side, this means that the width of the zone that can be safely monitored by the device according to the invention can be selected to be larger than that which could previously be safely monitored by a device of the prior art.
- the subdivision of the turns and thus the inductance of the coil is considerably reduced by the inventive division of the turns of the transmitting device into at least two groups, the two groups being at a certain distance from one another.
- the reduction in the inductance of the coil goes hand in hand with an increase in the quality Q of the coil, which in particular reduces the losses in the high-frequency range.
- the device according to the invention brings a significant reduction in Inductance with respect to the previously known and used crowded Arrangement of the individual turns. It is therefore possible to limit the number of Windings of the coil of the transmitter device - and thus the field strength within the surveillance zone - to increase without the load resistance with respect to the previously known solution would increase.
- the device according to the invention the use of stranded wire instead of otherwise proven cables with a single metal wire.
- stranded wire the a wire mesh consisting of a multitude of thin wires, composed, the skin effect is hardly noticeable during this effect with conventional wire to a strong increase in resistance at high Frequencies.
- a further development of the device according to the invention provides that the Turns in a direction perpendicular to the direction of passage through the Surveillance zone lying level are arranged.
- the turns of the coil can therefore be arranged so that they are in a top view of the Detector gates lie side by side. So that the outside have Turns, especially the turns of the outer group, larger Dimensions as the inner turns, or the turns of the inner Group. This arrangement undoubtedly has the enormous advantage that the width of the Detector gate can be chosen very low.
- the second possibility is to arrange the turns so that they are at Top view of the detector gate lying one behind the other.
- This arrangement requires wider detector gates; in return, it offers the advantage that the Turns of both or all groups the maximum possible expansion in one have a predetermined size of the detector gate.
- spacers are provided which spatially separate the two groups of turns from one another and keep them at a constant distance.
- An alternative solution proposes the following to increase the stability of the detector gate: when the windings of the transmitter device are fastened, a groove formed by webs arranged on both sides is provided instead of the spacers at least in the two side regions of the detector gate. After assembly, a rod made of hard material is inserted into this groove.
- the device according to the invention in such a way that the transmitting device and at least one receiving device are arranged in a detector gate forming a unit.
- the transmitting device and at least one receiving device are arranged in a detector gate forming a unit.
- the transmitting device and at least one receiving device are arranged in a detector gate forming a unit.
- the transmitting device and at least one receiving device are arranged in a detector gate forming a unit.
- the transmitting device and at least one receiving device are arranged in a detector gate forming a unit.
- the transmitting device and at least one receiving device are arranged in a detector gate forming a unit.
- a particularly advantageous embodiment of the device according to the invention suggests that in the case of the integral solution, the detector gate from one outer part and an inner part, wherein the transmitting device in the outer part and the receiving device (s) preferably in the inner part of the detector gate are housed.
- the transmitting device in the outer part and the receiving device (s) preferably in the inner part of the detector gate are housed.
- Detector gates with openwork front and back to shape what suits him gives a modern, open design that is aesthetically extremely appealing This Design also provides technical advantages: the material consumption for the Receiving device (s) can be due to their small surface area reduce considerably.
- EP 0 428 384 B1 uses a universal gate assembly become known in electronic article surveillance.
- the detector gate sets consists of a base that can be anchored to the floor, an upper section with parallel side sections and with a central part together, the are rigidly connected to the base and an upper part. Furthermore, funds are for connecting the two housing halves in predetermined positions intended.
- the turns of the transmitting and receiving coils run above the base while the windings of the transmitter in the Edge areas of the upper section run, are the turns of the Find receiver coils in the middle part of the detector gate.
- the constructive composition of the detector gate gives way from this known construction decisively.
- the detector gate consists of two - half shells - preferably manufactured by injection molding.
- the half-shells form a circumferential frame with a central part that the divides the area specified by the frame into two halves.
- the turns of the Transmitting devices are arranged in the frame of the detector gate; for the Transmitting device is therefore approximately the maximum available Utilized surface of the detector gate.
- the receiver coils preferably found in the middle part of the detector gate. It goes without saying the new design composition of the detector gate does not affect the division of the turns of the transmitter coil into two groups limited, but generally usable for arbitrarily equipped detector gates.
- the receiving device is advantageously designed such that it has at least one receiver coil.
- the receiver coil is advantageous so wound that it has multiple poles; preferably it has one Quadrupole characteristic.
- the individual receiver coils are coordinated so that the Detection rate in all areas of the surveillance zone is sufficiently high.
- a receiver coil shaped as an 'eight' has a zero detection rate on a line through the intersection between the upper and lower loops of the 'Eight' runs and is parallel to the upper or lower edge of the detector gate. If a further 'quadrupole offset eight' is superimposed on this receiver coil, so that the middle area of one of the two loops of the 'quadrupole offset eight' Area where the two loops of the first 'eight' intersect, it is ensured that the detection rate of the receiver coils is nowhere is zero.
- the device according to the invention is for all possible forms of Fuse elements can be used. So it can be with the electronic Securing element is an element that is made of a material with high Permeability and low coercive force (soft magnetic material) is made. Furthermore, the device according to the invention provides security elements detected, which are made of a material with magnetostrictive properties. The same applies in principle to fuse elements that have a resonant circuit exhibit.

Description
Eine räumlich gedrängte Anordnung von Detektorgattern im Eingangs- und Ausgangsbereich stört jedoch den optischen Eindruck, den der Kunde beim Betreten des Kaufhauses gewinnt: sie suggeriert Enge und Eingesperrtsein. Damit wirkt der Eingangsbereich wenig einladend auf die Kundschaft. Dieser Eindruck wird verstärkt, wenn die Detektorgatter nicht durchsichtig ausgebildet sind. Darüber hinaus wird durch die eng beieinander stehenden Detektorgatter der Durchgangsverkehr im Eingangs- und Ausgangsbereich behindert.
Von der anderen Seite betrachtet, bedeutet dies, daß die Breite der Zone, die von der erfindungsgemäßen Einrichtung sicher überwacht werden kann, größer wählbar ist als diejenige, die bislang von einer Einrichtung des Standes der Technik sicher überwacht werden konnte.
Eine alternative Lösung schlägt zur Erhöhung der Stabilität des Detektorgatters folgendes vor: bei der Befestigung der Windungen der Sendevorrichtung ist zumindest in den beiden Seitenbereichen des Detektorgatters anstelle der Abstandhalter eine durch beidseitig angeordnete Stege gebildete Nut vorgesehen. In diese Nut wird nach der Montage ein Stab aus hartem Material eingeschoben.
Alternativ ist es selbstverständlich auch möglich, die Sendevorrichtung und die Empfangsvorrichtung(en) in separaten Detektorgattern anzuordnen.
Die Sendevorrichtung 5 besteht aus achtzehn Windungen 12, die gemäß der Erfindung in zwei Gruppen 13a, 13b von Windungen 12 unterteilt sind. Im gezeigten Fall hat jede der beiden Gruppen 13a, 13b jeweils die gleiche Anzahl von Windungen 12. Generell ist die Unterteilung der Windungen 12 in Gruppen 13a, 13b jedoch in beliebigen Konstellationen möglich.
Wo erforderlich, werden bei den einzelnen Schritten die Windungen 12 der Gruppen 13a, 13b elektrisch angeschlossen.
Weiterhin ist in Fig. 3 die Ausnehmung zwischen den beiden schalenförmigen Rahmenhälften 23, 24 ersichtlich. Sie wird durch einen sog. Keder 27, einen elastischen Verschluß, abgedichtet. Die im unteren Bereich des äußeren Teils 10 des Detektorgatters 4 angebrachten Halteelemente 17 werden mittels der Bodenhalterungen 22 im Boden verankert. Die Justierschrauben 37 dienen zur Feinausrichtung des Detektorgatters 4.
