Static electricity measuring instrument {Measurement apparatus for static electricity}

The present invention relates to an electrostatic measuring device, and more particularly, by measuring and displaying the intensity of static electricity generated in each object in a production line of a laboratory, a laboratory, or a specific industry, the user can easily measure the intensity of static electricity in each object. The present invention relates to an electrostatic measuring device for identifying.

In general, static electricity refers to a charge that is charged on a stationary state or extremely slow in movement. When an object made of different materials comes into contact, charged particles such as electrons or ions move almost instantaneously in a contact interface. Then, when the objects are separated, most of the charge returns, but some remain on the surface of the object to become static.

As a unique physical phenomenon in the vicinity of the static electricity, when a charge is present, the electrostatic energy possessed by the charge is emitted to the surrounding space, so that an area where the action of static electricity is applied to the surrounding space, that is, an electric field is formed to attract or repel a minute object It will affect the surroundings. All such disasters caused by static electricity are troubles caused by these phenomena, and static electricity generated in industrial sites is harmful to human body, causing industrial equipment and products to be destroyed, fire explosion, electric shock, and dust adsorption. Damage and product reliability and productivity degradation. For example, when static electricity acts on a living body, an electric shock may occur, and when acting as heat, a fire and an explosion accident or destruction of a semiconductor device may occur, and when acting as an electromagnetic wave, noise may occur. )

Due to the above reasons, there is a need to measure static electricity and to remove the static electricity, and an electrostatic measuring apparatus has been proposed. The static electricity measuring device measures an intensity of static electricity charged in a certain charged material, and is classified into an analog method and a digital method.

Referring to the operation of the electrostatic measuring device according to the present invention having the configuration as described above are as follows. In this case, in the following description, the digital case will be described as an example.

First, the user decides to supply the driving voltage by turning on the power switch 21, and immediately after the display unit 80 is turned on and the system is initialized, the user The start of the electrostatic measurement is determined by checking the power supply state and turning on the TEST switch 22. In this case, the user preferably maintains the sensor unit 30 at a distance of 50 cm (1 inch) to the electrical charge to be measured, and then turns on the test switch 22. The reason for this is that when the distance between the sensor unit 30 is far from the charged member, the measured value of static electricity decreases, and when the distance is close, the sensor may be destroyed due to static electricity.

The operation of the electrostatic sensor unit 30 is started by the above operation, and the voltage value charged and output to the capacitor 32 varies according to the strength of the static electricity sensed by the sensor 31.

Since the zero point of the driving voltage used in the system during the above operation uses zero voltage GND as zero point, the same zero point is continuously maintained even when the battery is used and the voltage is lowered. That is, in the present invention, when the test switch 22 is turned off, the zero point is automatically adjusted, and thus accurate measurement is possible every time the static electricity is measured.

While the invention has been shown and described in connection with specific embodiments, it is common in the art that various modifications and changes can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as indicated by the utility model registration claims.
