Definitions

  • the invention relates to a circuit arrangement for testing coins in a coin operated device according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
  • a typical inductive Sensor consists of a primary coil and a secondary coil, through which Magnetic field the coins pass through.
  • the damping also depends on the chosen one Frequency of the primary signal.
  • a high frequency and non-magnetic Material takes place in a so-called skin effect, and that with such a signal Damping causes a statement about the surface quality of the Coin too.
  • the field penetrates further into the coin, so that a statement about the type of material inside the coin and also about its Thickness can be taken.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object of providing a circuit arrangement where the voltage induced in the primary coil is equal to the input voltage is.
  • a third coil is provided, which is inductively coupled to the primary coil, the signal of the third coil being so the transmit signal of the signal generator acts so that the signal matches the transmit signal.
  • the voltage induced in the third coil acts as a negative feedback signal and causes that the voltage induced in the primary coil is equal to the voltage with which the primary coil is controlled (transmission signal).
  • the receiver coil is therefore idle (Secondary coil) penetrated by the same magnetic flux as the primary coil, whereby the induced voltage has the same curve shape in this coil as well as in the primary coil. Only the amplitude is due to the reduced Coupling smaller.
  • the signal transmitter via a Operational amplifier is connected to the primary coil and the signal of the third Coil is connected to the other input of the operational amplifier.
  • a particularly simple embodiment of the invention provides that the third coil is wound as a further winding on the winding body for the primary coil.
  • the primary coil can have a ferrite core or can also be designed as an air coil his.
  • the transmission signal is preferably a square or triangular voltage. However, it can also be an impulse of any shape.
  • the circuit arrangement according to the invention enables a predefinable curve shape for the transmitter field, which is constant over the entire temperature range. It is therefore possible, regardless of interference material tests on the coins with fields containing harmonics.
  • the single figure shows a circuit arrangement according to the invention.
  • a primary coil 10 is shown magnetically with a secondary coil 12 is coupled. There is a path between the coils 10, 12 coin not shown. When crossing the magnetic field through the The coin dampens the magnetic field and thus changes the secondary signal on the secondary coil 12.
  • a third coil 14 is on the same winding core like the primary coil 10 wound and switched load-free. The one induced in it Voltage is applied to the negative input of an operational amplifier 16, whose positive input is connected to a signal generator 18. The signal generator generates z. B. a square wave voltage.
  • the voltage L 14 d ⁇ / dt induced in the coil 14 is therefore given to the differential amplifier 16 as a negative feedback signal. This has the effect that the output signal of the operational amplifier 16 is equal to the input signal, regardless of whether temperature changes have occurred or damping of the primary coil 10 has taken place. Thus, when idling, the voltage profile of the signal at the secondary coil 12 is the same as that of the transmission signal from the signal generator 18.
