Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for checking the state of a Device for testing sheet material, the at least one lighting device, has a translucent measuring window and a detector.
- a device of the type mentioned above is e.g. known from WO98 / 26276.
- the light emitted by a lighting device passes through a translucent measuring window on the sheet material to be tested. That from Light reflected from the sheet is then detected and evaluated.
- Measuring window can become dirty during operation. If the measurement window is dirty, e.g. less light from the irradiation device for sheet material to be tested, whereby the measurement signal drops.
- sheet material cannot be determined whether the weaker measurement signal to contamination of the measuring window or to the condition of the inspecting leaf material. As a result, it is due to the soiling of the measuring window leads to a misjudgment of the test item Leaf crops can come. This will increase the reliability of the Inspection of sheet material impaired.
- GB-A-2 109 923 discloses an active one Change of electronic amplification in one Banknote checker if the device is dirty.
- the invention has for its object a method and a device for checking the condition of a testing device for sheet material to propose the finding of with little technical effort contamination affecting the measurement in a measurement window the test device allows. According to the invention the task is accomplished by solved the features specified in the independent claims.
- the UV light transmitted through the measurement window from a UV filter is filtered so that only a small proportion passes the filter and is passed to a detector. This transmitted through the filter The proportion of UV light is detected and used to determine the degree of contamination of the measurement window evaluated.
- the evaluation is preferably carried out in such a way that for a clean measurement window a lighting profile is recorded and saved, which with the illumination profile currently obtained from the detected signal is compared. Based on the deviation of the currently recorded Lighting profile from the saved lighting profile can the degree of contamination of the measuring window can be determined. Instead of However, lighting profiles can also integrate the measured values with each other be compared. In both cases, a deviation points to one Contamination of the measuring window.
- the sensitivity is preferably used to determine the degree of contamination of the detector, for example, by extending the integration time or also the light intensity of the lighting device or also the signal amplification compared to normal operation at the Check of sheet material increased.
- FIG. 1 shows an example of the principle of operation in a schematic representation for the detection of contamination in a measuring window.
- the measurement window 2 is used here by a lighting device e.g. of two UV lamps 1 irradiated with UV light 5. That transmitted through the measurement window UV light 5 is filtered by means of a UV filter 3 such that only a small one Portion 6 of the UV light 5 reaches a detector 4. Only this part of UV light is detected and used to determine the degree of contamination of the measurement window evaluated.
- the current measured value is included a stored reference value compared with a clean measurement window is obtained. The comparison can be based on the integrated Measured values or also based on the recorded lighting profiles in certain cycles, which depend on the operating time.
- the Evaluation is based only on the UV light portion 6 that passes through the filter 3 and this proportion compared to that of the lighting device emitted UV light 5 is low, for example only a few Percent is preferably the sensitivity of the detector, for example by an extension of the integration time or also the Luminous intensity of the lighting device or the signal amplification to check the status of the measuring window compared to the operation increased when checking the sheet material, which facilitates the evaluation and is improved.
- Figure 2 shows a device for checking sheet material, in particular banknotes in which, for example, two measuring windows 2 are provided, which are spaced from each other. Every measurement window is here a lighting device 1, e.g. in the form of two UV lamps 1 assigned.
- the transported between the measuring windows 2 and not here banknote shown is e.g. in the authenticity check on both sides with UV light stimulated, with the light reflected from the banknote on each side is detected by one detector 4 each.
- banknotes emit when excited by UV light, light in the visible wavelength range, which is one of the criteria for the authenticity of banknotes.
- a UV filter 3 is arranged in front of the detectors 4, through which the Measurement signal of the banknote is not affected, however, because of the filters 3 the light reflected by the banknote in the visible wavelength range is let through.
- the status of the measuring windows is checked preferably by irradiating the measuring window 2 on both sides by means of the UV light 5 emitted by the lighting devices 1 in each case UV light 5 transmitted through the measuring window 2 is emitted by the filters 3 filtered such that only a small proportion 6, for example some Percent, is passed to the detectors 4.
- the one through the filters 3 transmitted portion 6 of the UV light 5 is detected and for determination of the degree of contamination of the measuring window evaluated.
- these can also be from only one Side are irradiated with UV light, as already related to Figure 1 has been described.
