Definitions

  • the invention relates to motion or presence detectors according to the passive infrared principle according to the generic term of claim 1 and claim 15.
  • Such motion or presence detectors are in a variety previously known from designs, such. B. from U.S. Pat. No. 4,321,594. These are used especially for detection of movements used by people and are considered Alarm devices, automatic light switches and the like known.
  • These motion or presence detectors consist of one or several infrared sensor elements and a variety of optical elements, for example lenses, each Lens receives radiation from a field of view and on a sensor element is focused. This creates in space a variety of fields of view that make up the natural thermal infrared radiation of the environment on the or the sensor elements arrives. If there is a body whose Temperature differs from the background in one such a field of view into or from such a field of vision moved out, changes on the sensor element incoming radiation and leads to a changing Output signal of the sensor element. The output signal can be used as an indicator of movement. This way people can be in a specific room or area detected based on their movements become.
  • the arrangement of the infrared sensor elements and lenses is done according to the needs for space coverage such fields of vision.
  • the focal length and size of the Lenses and their position to the sensor elements is the position of the fields of view defined in space, the entirety of which as a pattern of fields of view can be designated.
  • a motion or presence detector is on to be arranged on a wall of a room the fields of view are typically in the form of a horizontal Fan with 180 degree horizontal opening angle arranged so that movements can be recorded throughout the room can.
  • a motion or presence detector is required to be mounted on the ceiling, it is advantageous to Fields of view similar to the water jets of a shower to distribute the volume of a pyramid or a cone, with the motion or presence detector on top the pyramid or cone lies and the fields of vision are distributed over such a solid angle that they are one Cover space or area of predetermined size in such a way that a person in it if possible can be detected at any point.
  • According to needs are therefore a multitude of patterns of fields of view previously known. The number of such fields of view for one Certain patterns can range from a few to wide be over a hundred.
  • infrared sensors work after the pyroelectric principle. For example, two or four sensor elements assembled in one housing and the output signals interconnected differentially, that means added with opposite signs. Because such Infrared sensors only from a certain solid angle Radiation can be received depending on the application or several infrared sensors are used.
  • Lenses in the form of spherical or aspherical lenses, Fresnel lenses, Fresnel zone plates, diffraction Fresnel lenses, holographic Proven lenses or combinations of such elements are typically used for a variety of fields of view used a variety of such lenses, wherein Depending on the needs, the most diverse designs in different sizes can be used together.
  • a number of individual lenses are one Multi-lens or a lens array composed.
  • each Single lens is arranged so that in interaction with the sensor elements in the desired fields of view Direction and thus a certain pattern of Fields of view is generated.
  • Examples of lens arrays are the arrangement of a large number of rectangular Fresnel lenses on a flat or cylindrical surface like z. B. from the US pattern Des. 331,120 known, three-dimensional Arrangements according to U.S. Pat. No. 5,221,919, U.S. Pat. 5,187,360 or the arrangement of a variety spherical lenses according to a hemisphere U.S. Pat. 4,930,864.
  • the object of the invention is a passive infrared To create motion or presence detectors at which different areas with a single detector type are monitorable and very easy to use is. According to the invention, this object is achieved by the features of independent claims.
  • the passive infrared includes movement or Presence detectors optical lenses that emit radiation Fields of view received and at least one infrared sensor focus, and a movable cover mechanism, which is variable depending on its position Patterns of fields of view to focus on the infrared sensor according to a wall or ceiling mounting releases. Due to the movable in the detector Coverage can therefore be covered by the fields of view Area very easily adapted to the room to be monitored become. In other words, the active fields of vision from the number of all available fields of view with the help the cover can be selected so that for a desired one An optimal monitoring area results.
  • the detector does not require any separate additional parts. It replaces several detectors known today, each adapted for specific mounting types or mounting locations are.
  • the moveable Cover is in or on a housing of the motion or Presence detector movably mounted.
  • the cover has a cover surface between the infrared sensor and the lens is retractable so that the Beam path of a number of lenses released to the infrared sensor and possibly the beam path of other lenses to the infrared sensor is blocked.
  • the cover is not visible from the outside, so a uniform appearance of the detector regardless of the position of the cover results.
  • the cover is together with its movement mechanism in the interior of the detector housing protected against damage, jamming or the like.
  • the cover includes a cover surface that extends along an outside of the Lenses is movable, so that the radiation incidence a number of lenses released and if necessary on others Lenses is blocked.
  • the cover can except here for the selection of active fields of view also as protective eyelid for the blocked lenses against dirt, damage or the like.
  • the cover is like that designed for wall mounting or ceiling mounting Fields of vision to the ceiling, to windows or to disturbing sources of heat radiation are blocked. This allows you to easily Wise systematic sources of interference for false tripping the detector directly when installing the detector using suitable Positioning the cover can be hidden.
  • the cover comprises at least one pivotable or tiltable cover surface, the manually using a lever on the outside of the detector, by gravity depending on the mounting position or by electrical Control can be operated and in particular locked is.

  • a hemispherical Multi-lens 11 is placed, which is a variety of Lentils spread over the hemisphere or part of it contains.
  • the lenses are 12-18 visible.
  • Each of these lenses 12-18 focuses radiation from at least one correspondingly assigned field of view 32-38 on sensor 20, which is one or more sensor elements contains.
  • the motion or presence detector is included the housing base 10, which also includes evaluation electronics and functional parts 8 for generating an output signal can be mounted on the approximately vertical wall 1, at a height above the ground, preferably larger is the height of the people to be detected, for example 2 to 3 meters.
  • the motion or presence detector at any location in a usual room with, for example, a rectangular one Floor plan or another predetermined area Can detect people, he needs a pattern of Fields of view that are both approximately horizontal or only includes slightly downward fields of view 34 to distant To be able to detect people, as well as down directed fields of view 35, 36, 37 to people in the To grasp proximity, as well as very steeply directed downwards Fields of view 38, for example through a door below persons entering the motion or presence detector capture.
