- a sleeve 140 is arranged in the second region 74 of the respective recesses 68a, etc.
- This sleeve 140 ( Figure 4) is used to determine the positioning of the wire waveguide 118 in this second region 74 of the recess and thereby to the S-guide.
- the sleeve 140 (spacer sleeve) is glued, for example, in the corresponding second region 74 of the recesses 68 a and so on. It is surrounded by a shielding tube 142.
- This shielding tube 142 is made of a magnetically shielding material.
- the coil device 144 in this case comprises (at least) a pick-up coil 146, which is arranged on a measuring section continuation 22a, etc., in the second region 74 of the corresponding recess 68a, etc.
- the corresponding pick-up coil 146 is in particular glued into the sleeve 140.
- the pick-up coil 146 is seated with pins 150a, 150b, 150c, 150d of metallic material.
- the return conductor 126 is wound and soldered thereto.
- each of the pins 150a, 150b, 150c, 150d has a band 152 with integrated conductors.
- at least one resistance element 154 is arranged on the band 152.
- the resistance element of the respective band 152 is seated outside the coil holder 64.
- Each measuring section 20a with its measuring section continuation 22a, a band with its own resistance element 154 is assigned in each case.
- a respective band 152 is designed in particular as a flex band. It guides the conductors and is also a carrier of the resistance element 154.
- the resistance elements 154 allow the respective measuring sections 20a, 20b, 20c to be normalized in relation to one another and also to a subsequent circuit. In particular, inequalities in the electrical behavior of the individual measuring sections 20a, 20b, 20c can be compensated. Due to the easy accessibility of the resistor elements 154, this compensation can be carried out in a simple manner.
- the mode of operation of the path measuring device 10 will be explained schematically with reference to FIG. 12 (a).
- An excitation current pulse 156 originating from a measurement interface triggers a measurement as a measurement signal.
- the excitation current pulse 156 is triggered by means of a start signal.
- the excitation current pulse 156 generates a circular magnetic field 158, which is due to soft magnetic properties of the waveguide (wire waveguide) 118 bundled in this.
- the position sensor 14 in particular permanent magnet
- Its magnetic field lines 162 extend at right angles to the circular magnetic field 158 and are likewise bundled in the waveguide 118.
- the corresponding pick-up coil 146 is arranged, which generates an electrical signal by reversing the magnetostrictive effect and magnetic induction and delivers it to the measuring interface.
- the wave travel time from the point of origin to the pick-up coil 146 is directly proportional to the distance between the position sensor 14 and the pick-up coil 146. By means of a time measurement, therefore, the distance between the pick-up coil 146 and the position sensor 14 with high accuracy can be determined.
- the primary measurement signal for the time measurement is the exciter current pulse 156, which is offset in time as a function of the distance between the pick-up coil 146 and the position sensor 14 of the
- an exciter current pulse which is sent to a measuring path can induce voltages in the other measuring paths 20b, 20c, especially when switching off. It can therefore be done in principle crosstalk.
- an induction voltage limiting device 170 which adjusts an edge steepness 172 (FIG. 12 (b)) of an excitation current pulse 156, in particular during switch-off, such that, in particular, a drop from a maximum amplitude 174 to zero over a period of at least 1.5 ⁇ and especially in a period of at least 2 ⁇ and in particular in a period of at least 3 ⁇ .
- edge steepness 172 FIG. 12 (b)
- the induction voltage limiting device 170 is realized, for example, by an RCD element.
- a magnetic device 178 is integrated into the coil holder 64 (FIG. 2).
- the magnet device 178 is realized, for example, by magnets which are integrated in the corresponding latches 80a, 80b, 80c.
- the magnet device 178 is a bias magnet device, which serves for reducing the crosstalk between measuring sections 20a, 20b, 20c or measuring section continuations 22a, 22b, 22c. It is thereby possible to reduce the influence of the current pulse on one measuring path on the pick-up coil assigned to another measuring path.
- the latches 80a, etc. may be, for example, plastic-bonded magnets.
- the orientation and strength of the magnetic field can be adjusted specifically.
- current-carrying conductors are guided exactly parallel.
- interference fields which can be caused by a crossed construction, avoided.
- the crosstalk due to an increased distance of the pick-up coils 146 is reduced by the staggered arrangement to the axis 26.
- one or more conductors 180 are additionally arranged in the measuring section holder 24 and the coil holder 64.
- a conductor 180 is for example guided in parallel.
- a meandering guide or the like is possible.
- one or more current-carrying conductor 180 can be with appropriate routing of the conductor 180 and setting the current to compensate for possible crosstalk between different measuring sections 20a, 20b, 20c.
- the path measuring device 10 functions as follows:
- the path measuring device 10 is redundant with respect to its measuring sections 20a, 20b, 20c.
- the distance measuring device 10 is multiply redundant, since three separate measuring sections 20a, 20b, 20c are provided. These measuring sections 20a, 20b, 20c are independent of one another. They independently determine the position of the position sensor 14.
- Corresponding measures can be used to reduce or prevent crosstalk.
- the different measuring sections 20a, 20b, 20c are integrated into the measuring section holder 24. This can be realized with a small space (diameter of the order of 7 mm or smaller).
- the Meßordernhalter 24 is made of a glass fiber reinforced plastic material. As a result, it is directly electrically insulating and has a low thermal expansion. As a result, the forced loading of the measuring sections is greatly reduced.
- the measuring sections 20a etc. with their measuring section continuation 22a etc. are arranged in an electrically insulating tube, for example made of silicone material.
- a corresponding hose 124 allows an electrically insulating storage with high shock resistance and low susceptibility to vibration.
- each measuring section 20a, etc., and measuring section continuations 22a, etc. are laid in an S-shape with two simple bends in the coil holder 64 (at the transition to the first region 70 and at the transition from first area 70 to the second area 74). This allows a compact design with minimal disturbance of the wave propagation.
- corresponding resistor elements 154 for normalizing the measuring sections 20a, etc. are arranged with the measuring section continuations 22a and so on.
- the shielding tubes 142 for each measuring section 20a with measuring section continuations 22a etc. are preferably at their own potential, with a separate magnetic shielding being provided for each measuring section 20a etc. with measuring section continuations 22a, etc.
