- FIG. 1 is a schematic configuration diagram of a main part of a high-frequency oscillation type proximity sensor according to this embodiment.
- Reference numeral 11 denotes a detection coil that forms a part of a high-frequency oscillation circuit.
- the detection coil 11 is, for example, two high-frequency litz wires (coil conductors) L 1 and L 2 having one end connected in common, and they are wound around a resin pobin (not shown) by repairing each other. Consists of two thread coils.
- a ferrite core (not shown) is inserted into the pobin.
- One coil L1 of the two thread coils is used as a resonance circuit coil that forms an LC parallel resonator with a capacitor C1 connected in parallel to the coil L1.
- the other coil L2 is used as a copper resistance compensating coil.
- a two-wire coil is formed by connecting a plurality of high-frequency litz wires (coil conductors), which are connected at one end in common, and become substantially two (two-thread) coils.
- any other parts may be used.
- Such a high-frequency oscillation circuit using the detection coil 11 composed of two thread coils includes a coil L1 for a resonance circuit connected in parallel with a capacitor C1, the other end B of which is grounded, and a coil L1 for copper resistance compensation.
- Oscillation is driven by connecting the common connection terminal A with the amplifier 2 to the amplifier 12 and supplying a drive current from the amplifier 12.
- the amplifier 12 basically receives and amplifies a voltage generated at the common connection terminal A of the detection coil 11 in accordance with the oscillation drive of the detection coil 11, and amplifies the amplified output voltage. Is converted to a current and applied (output) to the common connection terminal A of the detection coil 11 to cause the detection coil 11 to self-oscillate. That is, the amplifier 12 drives the detection coil 11 by oscillating the detection coil 11 by exhibiting a function like a negative resistance of discharging a current according to the input voltage.
- a buffer 13 for detecting an oscillating voltage generated in the detection coil 11 is connected to a common connection end A of the two thread coils, which is one end of the detection coil 11.
- the oscillation voltage (output) detected through the buffer 13 is converted from the phase shift circuit 15 through the gain adjustment resistor 16 into the copper resistance compensation in the detection coil 11. It is configured to be added to the other end C of the use coil L2.
- the phase shift circuit 15 is mainly composed of, for example, an operational amplifier 15a, and the output voltage from the buffer 13 supplied to its inverting input terminal (1) and its non-inverting input terminal (+), respectively. By giving a phase difference to the (oscillation voltage), the phase of the output voltage is rotated (shifted) by a predetermined angle.
- the phase shift angle is determined by the circuit constant of the resistor Rcont and the capacitor Ccont connected to the non-inverting input terminal of the operational amplifier 15a, and is adjusted by, for example, changing the value of the resistor Rcont.
- the oscillating voltage given a predetermined phase rotation by the phase shift circuit 15 has its feedback amount adjusted via a gain adjusting resistor 16 and is applied to the other end C of the copper resistance compensating coil L 2.
- the copper resistance of the detection coil 13 is compensated by the voltage applied to the other end C of the copper resistance compensation coil L2.
- this detection coil 11 is equivalently equivalent to its self-inductance L (L 1 , L 2), ohmic resistance (copper resistance) Rcu l, Rcu 2 depending on copper loss, inductive resistance R i as an AC resistance component, and eddy current loss R t due to object S Can be considered separately.
- L self-inductance
- Rcu l ohmic resistance (copper resistance)
- Rcu 2 copper resistance
- R i as an AC resistance component
- eddy current loss R t due to object S Can be considered separately.
- the eddy current loss R t is also a part of the AC resistance component, it has a special meaning as a detection target, and therefore is separated from the inductive resistance R i of the coil itself for convenience.
- the inductive resistance (AC resistance) Ri is the hysteresis loss, eddy current loss, residual loss generated in the ferrite core and the metal case housing this core, and the dielectric loss and the dielectric loss generated in the filler. Also, the loss caused by factors such as proximity effect loss that occurs between the wires of the coil itself is expressed as a resistance component.
- the inventors evaluated and analyzed the above-described two-thread coils.
- the copper resistances Rcu l and Rcu 2 were found as an equivalent circuit separated from the AC resistance component R i and the eddy current loss component R t as shown in FIG. 2B.
- Detect if lightning strikes Assuming that one coil L1 of the coil 11 is used as a resonance circuit coil as described above and the other coil L2 is used as a copper resistance compensating coil, as shown in FIG.
- the copper resistances Rcul and Rcu2 included in the above can be regarded as being separated from the aforementioned inductive resistance R i and eddy current loss R ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ , respectively.
- each of the coils L 1 and L 2 is realized as, for example, a combination of a plurality of high-frequency rifled wires having the same wire diameter
- the number of failures between the coil L 1 and the coil L 2 is [ ⁇ : M]
- the copper resistances Rcul and Rcu2 of these coils L1 and L2 are proportional to the reciprocals 1Zn and lZm of their looseness n and m, respectively. . Therefore, between the copper resistance Rcul and Rcu2 of each coil L1 and coil L2,
- the buffer 13 and the phase shift circuit 15 described above are included in the detection coil 11 as described above by applying such a voltage to the point D via the terminal C of the copper resistance compensation coil L2. Plays the role of equivalently canceling (erasing) the copper resistance Rcul. As a result, the Q of the detection coil 11 is greatly improved, and the temperature dependence caused by the copper resistance Rcul can be eliminated. Then, the oscillation operation generated in the detection coil 11 is stabilized, and the operation as a proximity sensor is further stabilized. Further, it is possible to extend the object detection distance by the proximity sensor.
- the entirety of the detection coil 11 plus the buffer 13 and the phase shift circuit 15 described above is added to It can be regarded as one detection coil in which the copper resistance Rcul is canceled, that is, as a coil with a copper resistance erasure circuit. Therefore, when designing an amplifier that drives the detection coil 11 to oscillate, it is only necessary to determine the circuit constant for a coil that does not have a copper resistor Rcul, so that the design is easy and the circuit configuration is simple. It is also easy to achieve the conversion.
- the voltage gV to be fed back from the buffer 13 to the terminal C of the copper resistance compensating coil L2 is
- g is the gain of the feedback circuit. Canceling the copper resistance Rcul means that the current (i 1 + i 2) flowing through the copper resistance Rcul is set to zero (0). Therefore, assuming that the value Ro of the gain adjustment resistor 16 described above is sufficiently larger than the copper resistance Rcu2 (Rcu2 Ro Ro), the above gain g can be approximately calculated from the above equations (1) and (2).
- phase shift circuit 15 When the phase shift circuit 15 is used as described above, for example, a temperature-sensitive resistor such as a thermistor is connected to the gain adjustment resistor (Ro) 16 or the phase shift amount adjustment resistor (Rconst). If added as an external component, this makes it easy to fine-tune its phase shift characteristics
- FIG. 4 is a schematic configuration diagram of a main part of the high-frequency oscillation type proximity sensor according to this embodiment.
- This high-frequency oscillation type proximity sensor drives the oscillation by supplying a drive current from the amplifier 12 to the common connection terminal A of the detection is coil 11 composed of the two thread coils described above, and drives the copper resistance compensation coil L 2 By feeding back the voltage generated at the terminal C of the resonant coil L1 to the terminal B of the resonance circuit coil L1 via the inverting amplifier 18, the copper resistance Rcu1 of the detection coil 11 is compensated.
- the inverting amplifier 18 is composed of an operational amplifier (op-amp) that, for example, has its non-inverting input terminal (+) grounded and receives an input voltage at the inverting input 20 terminal (-) to perform inversion operation.
- the other end C of the copper resistance compensating coil L2 of the two-thread coil is connected to the inverting input terminal of the operational amplifier (inverting amplifier 18), and the resonance terminal is connected to the output terminal of the operational amplifier (inverting amplifier 18).
- the other end B of the circuit coil L1 is connected.
- the oscillation circuit configured as described above can be redrawn as shown in FIG. 5 by using the equivalent circuit of the detection coil 2511 shown in FIG. 2B described above.
- copper resistance Rcu of copper resistance compensation coil L 2 in detection coil 1 1 2 is connected to the inverting input terminal (-) of the inverting amplifier 18. Since the input impedance of the inverting amplifier 18 is sufficiently large as described above, no current flows into the inverting input terminal (1). Hence, the copper resistance Rcu 2 copper resistance compensation Koi Le L 2 without voltage drop occurs, the potential V D of the potential V c and point D of the C point is always equal. As a result, the value of the copper resistance Rcu2 of the copper resistance compensation coil L2 becomes irrelevant for the detection coil 11.
- the inverting amplifier 18 since the non-inverting input terminal (+) of the inverting amplifier 18 is grounded, the inverting amplifier 18 has the potential V D at the point D which is positive with respect to the ground potential (0 V).
- the copper resistor Rcul of the detection coil 11 can be virtually short-circuited from the parallel resonance circuit including the detection coil 11 and the capacitor C1.
- the resonance circuit is formed by the inductance of the resonance circuit coil L1, the AC resistance component Ri, the eddy current loss Rt in the object to be detected, and the capacitor C1, as shown in FIG.
- the current of the resonance circuit does not flow through the copper resistor Rcul of the detection coil 11.
- the AC resistance component Ri and the eddy current loss Rt of the resonance circuit coil L 1 are sufficiently smaller than the reactance c L 1 of the detection coil 11. Therefore, the potential at point A generated by the inductance L of the detection coil 11 is defined as V A.
- the current il flowing through the resonance circuit coil LI is a current whose phase is delayed by 90 ° with respect to the voltage VA as shown in FIG.
- the current i 1 causes a voltage drop of [Rcul-i 1] in the ohmic resistor Rcul depending on the copper loss of the resonance circuit coil L1.
- the point D is equivalently grounded by outputting the current i 2 which is equal in magnitude to the current i 1 flowing through the copper resistor Rcul of the resonance circuit coil L 1 from the inverting amplifier 18 and is in the opposite phase to the copper resistance Rcul. This will virtually short the Rcul. As a result, it is possible to virtually set the potential V D at the point D to zero [0] and ground it, thereby removing the influence of the copper resistance Rcu 1 of the resonance circuit coil L 1.
- the resonance circuit coil L 1 since the current flowing through the copper resistance Rcul of the resonance circuit coil L 1 is zero [0] by virtually grounding the point D as described above, the resonance circuit coil L 1 was viewed from between the terminals AB. Then, since the potential at the point D is zero [0V], the copper resistance Rcul in the detecting coil 1 is substantially invisible, and the copper resistance Rcul can be regarded as 0 ⁇ .
- the copper resistor Rcul included in the detection coil 1 can be virtually short-circuited, so that the Q ratio of the detection coil 1 is greatly increased as in the previous embodiment. Can be improved. Further, the temperature dependency caused by the copper resistance R cu 1 is removed to stabilize the oscillating operation, and as a result, the operation as a proximity sensor can be stabilized. Further, the detection distance of the proximity sensor can be extended, and a proximity sensor with high detection accuracy can be configured. In the oscillation circuit described above, the potential at point D is maintained at 0 V via the inverting amplifier 18.
- the current output from the inverting amplifier 18 has the same magnitude and frequency as the current flowing through the ohmic resistor Rcul of the resonance circuit coil L1, and is a current having an opposite phase that differs only in phase by 180 °. For this reason, even if the resonance frequency of the resonance circuit fluctuates, thereby changing the frequency of the current flowing through the ohmic resistance Rcul of the resonance circuit coil L1, the opposite phase having the same frequency as the changed frequency is obtained.
- the current is output from the inverting amplifier 18 to the copper resistor Rcul of the resonance circuit coil L1. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the fluctuation of the virtual ground due to the frequency fluctuation, and it is possible to reliably short-circuit the copper resistor R cul.
- the inventors measured the resistance component of the detection coil used in the high-frequency oscillation type proximity sensor under various conditions. Specifically, the ambient temperature of the detection coil is set to normal temperature (25 ° C), low temperature (125 ° C), and high temperature (70 ° C), and the oscillation frequency is set to 200 kHz. The resistance was measured.
- Fig. 7 shows the resistance components of the coil at each of the above temperature conditions when the wire is in a wire state, when it is wound around a pobin, when a core is inserted into a pobin, when it is further housed in a metal case, and when it is covered by a detection coil. These are measured when the detector S is brought close to 7 mm, and the measurement results are graphed. In this graph, the copper resistance Rcu of the detection coil 1, the AC resistance component R i, and the eddy current loss R t in the detection object are respectively stacked and represented.

- the second amplifier 21b also has a diode D21 connected in parallel between its input and output terminals, and a diode D22 inserted in series at its output terminal.
- the amplification gain with respect to the input voltage Vin is changed by selectively bypassing the feedback loop formed by the resistor R22 with the bias voltage Vin2 as a boundary.
- the second amplifier 21a outputs [Vin ⁇ Vin2],
- V02 -Vin (R22 / R21) + (1 + R22 / R21) Vb
- Output voltage V02 is obtained.
- Vin is less than the above bias voltage Vin2

As a result, as a whole, the amplification gain is changed according to the input voltage Vin, and a nonlinear input / output characteristic as illustrated in FIG. 10 is exhibited. Then, the amplitude voltage V A generated in the detection coil 11 is input as the input voltage Vin, and the output voltage Vout is converted into a current via the resistor 22 and supplied to the detection coil 11 to thereby provide the detection coil. 11 is oscillating.
