Detects the harmonic component of the output signal induced in the detection coil by the sharp magnetization reversal of the identification marker that occurs when passing, and at that point issues an alarm, closes the gate entrance, or conversely detects the signal. This is a non-contact monitoring system that performs actions such as opening the gate only when the system is activated. (Function) The present invention provides a monitoring system in which a minute structure containing a crystalline metal fiber with an unprecedented circular cross section whose magnetic properties exhibit a rectangular hysteresis loop is affixed to an object as an identification marker. Detects a specific harmonic component that was not present in conventional materials among the output signals induced in the detection coil due to the sharp magnetization reversal of the identification marker that occurs when the identification marker passes through the object detection section that has a built-in excitation and detection coil. It is something to do. In other words, we provide a non-contact monitoring system that can clearly distinguish and detect not only non-magnetic objects but also generally magnetic abrasives or easily magnetized materials, which solves the biggest problem of misidentification. can.

判明した。The generation of harmonic components is largely influenced by the rate of change of magnetization over time. Therefore, the present inventors thought that it might be possible to obtain unprecedented harmonic characteristics by developing a crystalline metal glue fiber that exhibits a rectangular hysteresis loop that causes a sharp reversal of magnetization, and conducted extensive research. As a result, for example, by the melt spinning method, a diameter of 70μ and a length of 50IIllI
A Fe-Si crystalline alloy fiber with a circular cross section of 1 was prepared,
After examining the magnetization curve of the heat-treated fiber, it was found that it exhibited a rectangular hysteresis loop as shown in FIG. 1, and a steep magnetization reversal occurred. Then, the fiber was placed under a sinusoidal magnetic field with an excitation frequency of 60 Hz and a magnetic field amplitude of 0.5 oe (13 squares F), and the frequency spectrum of the output signal induced in the detection coil due to the steep magnetization reversal was investigated. Surprisingly, it was found that even in the high frequency band, as shown in Figure 2, some high-level harmonics are retained. Additionally, conventional magnetic materials, such as Pe-Ni, which do not exhibit rectangular hysteresis loops,
As a result of measuring the frequency spectrum of the alloy fibers in the same manner, it was found that almost no harmonics or components were emitted relative to the fundamental wave or component, as shown in Figure 3, indicating that the metal exhibiting the rectangular hysteresis loop in the present invention The fiber was found to be a magnetic marker for surveillance systems with unprecedented harmonic properties.

。Thus, the present invention is capable of identifying, in a non-contact monitoring system such as the system shown in FIG. A marker 3 is affixed to an object, and a sharp magnetization reversal of the identification marker that occurs when the object passes through the object detection section 2, which has a built-in excitation and detection coil, induces it in the detection coil 2-b. The frequency detection circuit 5 detects only specific harmonics that were not present in conventional materials by extracting them from the output signal through the filter 4, which eliminates the problem of misidentification. It became.

合金をも全く誤認検知することが無かった。For example, in the system shown in FIG. 4, when a conventional soft magnetic Fe-Ni alloy fiber is used as the identification marker 3,
Since there are almost no harmonics in the output signal, the system must detect in a low frequency range. Therefore, it is difficult to use the high-pass filter 4, and in such a system, the identification marker of the present invention cannot be used. It has been found that there are cases where metal knives are falsely detected. In contrast, the system according to the present invention did not misidentify or detect the soft magnetic Fe--Ni alloy, let alone metal products.
