Abstract

1,212,504. Inductive signalling; transponders. EURONICS Ltd. 29 March, 1968 [30 Dec., 1966], No. 58271/66. Headings H4L and H4U. A system for detecting the unauthorized removal of articles through an exit, comprises a transmitter generating an inductive field across or adjacent to the exit and a plurality of miniaturized oscillators, one oscillator being attached to each article. As described, the oscillators are energized by rectification of the signal from the transmitter and retransmit a signal on a different frequency from that received to one or more receivers coupled to an alarm system. The oscillators themselves may include an audible alarm. One transistor oscillator described includes an energizing circuit tuned to one frequency and retransmits on a different frequency, the incoming signal being rectified by a diode. In a further embodiment, the oscillator consists of a resonant circuit comprising an inductor, a capacitor and a diode in series, the diode generating harmonics, one of which is utilized as the alarm signal. The oscillator may be included in a price tag label.
