  • Said signal generator 18 of the sensor module 4 is (in addition) configured in this example to detect a break in this circuit (as a change in the electrical resistance of the circuit) and then, as described above, to generate a signal triggered thereby.
  • a separation of the adapter 3 of the object 2 is thus possible only by severing the conductor loop 39. This can detect the signal generator 18 and, as described above, generate a signal thereby triggered.

Rather, in the present case, the adapter 3 can also be provided by a single strut or a simple plate in the form of a straight strip.
  • the sensor module 4 can be pushed together with the adapter 3 and pulled out again, the latter because of the signal generator 18 but not unnoticed.
  • the latter may have a stop, not shown here, for example, at one end of the rail, which forms the connecting element 35.
  • the rail and the groove, which form the connecting elements 35, 36 also have other cross-sections, so the rail can be designed for example as a T-profile or with wedge-shaped cross-section or sitting on a web bead.
  • groove and rail can be reversed, so that the adapter 3 has a groove and the sensor module 4 has a groove leading rail.
  • FIGS. 7 and 8 a further embodiment of a sensor system 1 for monitoring an object 2 is shown, which is designed like the previously described sensor systems 1 in several parts. It shows FIG. 8 one in FIG. 7 Cross-section of the sensor system 1 denoted by BB.
  • the sensor module 4 again contains, in particular, a sensor element 12 for detecting at least one variable which is of interest for monitoring the object 2.
  • the functional module 5 with the energy storage 24 serving to supply the sensor module 4 is detachably connected to the first part.
  • the detachable connection between the two parts of the sensor system 1 is produced with the aid of two mutually complementary connection means 35 and 36, namely a rail provided on the sensor module 4 and a groove in the functional module 5 receiving this rail.
  • the two parts can therefore be simply pushed together.
  • the given here by the sensor module 4 part with the adapter 3 of the previous Embodiments comparable and given here by the functional module 5 part with the sensor module 4 of the previous embodiment.
  • a signal generator 18 provided in the sensor module 4 is set up to detect a release of the connection between the two parts and to trigger a signal in the event of a solution of this connection.
  • the signal generator 18 has a sensor element 18 'designed, for example, as a microswitch, which cooperates with a bulge 19 now provided on the functional module 5.
  • the two parts can not be separated unnoticed.
  • the functional module 5 now has a broadening 14, which covers a region 15 with the fastening means 11 as long as the functional module 5 is connected to the sensor module 4.
  • the attachment of the first part of the object 2 can therefore not be solved nondestructively.
  • the sensor system 1 can not be separated from the object 2 unnoticed even in this embodiment.
  • the energy storage device 24 can also be exchanged relatively unproblematically here by temporarily disconnecting the functional module 5 from the sensor module 4.
  • FIGS. 9 and 10 Another embodiment is in the FIGS. 9 and 10 shown, the FIG. 10 a cross section through the in FIG. 9 shown sensor module 1 reproduces at the point indicated there with BB. It is a development of the execution of the Figures 1-5 , Notwithstanding this, the transverse strut 34 of the adapter 3 is made here somewhat wider and has two recesses 28 and 38.
  • a functional element 26 is arranged, which is connected by a detachable plug connection with the sensor module 4.
  • the functional element 26 may be, for example, an additional sensor for measuring a measured variable which is of interest for the monitoring of the object 2, but is not yet taken into consideration by the sensor elements 12, 20, 21.
  • the functional element 26 may be, for example, a memory or an ID chip.
  • the recess receiving the functional element 26 is 38 covered by the widening 14 of the sensor module 4.
  • the widening 14 extends to this embodiment not only on the second longitudinal strut 33, but also on the cross member 34.
  • the functional element 26 is thereby blocked in the recess 38 and its connector is locked to the second part. Since neither the entire sensor system 1 nor the sensor module 4 can be removed unnoticed, it is also impossible to replace the functional element unnoticed or removed 26.
  • FIGS. 9 and 10 shown sensor system 1 to an external sensor 7.
  • This can serve in particular for detecting an illuminance or radiation intensity at a front side of the work of art and is therefore not arranged inside the sensor module 4 or the functional module 5.
  • the external sensor 7 is arranged outside or on a front side of the frame 6 and connected to the sensor module 4 only via a cable connection and a plug 8.
  • the plug 8, which is like the functional element 26 connected via a detachable plug connection with the sensor module 4, is thereby received by the recess 28.
  • the plug 8 can not be pulled out unnoticed, because it is blocked in the recess 28 and because its connector is locked to the sensor module 4 thereby, as long as the adapter 3 is fastened with the fastening means 11 to the frame 6.
  • this attachment can not be solved unnoticed, because it is not non-destructively solvable in the state in which the sensor module 4 is connected to the adapter 3.
  • the here on the frame 6 facing side of the adapter 3 provided recess 28 instead be provided as the recess 26 on the side facing away from the frame 6 and then covered by the widening 14.
  • the recess 38 for the functional element 26, in a modification may also be provided, like the recess 28 of the present embodiment, at a location facing the frame 6.
  • FIGS. 11 to 13 a further embodiment of a sensor system 1 of the type proposed here is shown.
  • a cross section through this sensor system is in FIG. 12 at one in the side view FIG. 11 shown with AA point.
  • FIG. 13 is an enlarged section of the cross section shown in the FIG. 12 is indicated by a circle.
  • the embodiment differs from the FIGS. 11 to 13 merely in that it is additionally equipped with a locking device, with the unintentional release of the connection between the sensor module 4 and the adapter 3 when disconnecting the functional module 5 from the adapter 3 and the sensor module 4 can be prevented.
  • the locking device locks the connection between the sensor module 4 and the adapter 3 in the state in which this connection exists, wherein this lock is blocked and can not be released as long as the connection between the sensor module 4 and the functional module 5 exists.
  • the locking device in the present case, two hinged on the sensor module 4 locking elements 43 and for each of these locking element 43 each have a provided on the adapter 3 receptacle 44.
  • the locking elements 43 are formed here on a housing of the sensor module 4 and can be deflected elastically. Instead, the locking elements 43 could be mounted movably in or on the sensor module 4 in another way. In the state in which the connection between the sensor module 4 and the adapter 3, the locking elements 43 are pressed into the receptacles 44.
  • the functional module 5 in turn has a recess 45 for each of the locking elements 43, which is shaped such that the functional module 5 in the state in which the connection between the sensor module 4 and the adapter 3, abuts against the locking elements 43 and thus prevents movement of the locking elements 43 out of the receptacles 44 as long as the connection of the functional module 5 with the sensor module 4 and the adapter 3.
  • the resting in the receptacles 44 locking elements thereby prevent movement of the sensor module 4.
