Abstract
Description
このような赤外線センサとしては、近年、柔軟性に優れると共に全体を薄くすることができる絶縁性フィルム上に薄膜サーミスタを形成したフィルム型赤外線センサが開発されている。
すなわち、上記従来の赤外線センサの場合、環境温度に変化が生じた場合、例えば周囲空気の対流の影響を受けて受光側及び補償側の一方で温度が変化した場合、温度が変化した一方で熱が配線膜を介して端子電極に逃げ易いため、受光側と補償側との熱バランスの収束が遅くなってしまい熱応答性が低下してしまう不都合があった。
すなわち、この赤外線センサでは、熱結合部が、赤外線反射膜の一部に対向して形成されているので、熱結合部が薄い絶縁性フィルムを介して赤外線反射膜の一部に最も近接し、高い熱結合性を得ることができる。
すなわち、この赤外線センサでは、熱結合部が、第2の感熱素子の近傍に配された補償側近傍結合部を有しているので、補償側近傍結合部が第2の感熱素子に近いことで、応答性がより高くなる。
すなわち、この赤外線センサでは、熱結合部が、前記近傍領域の赤外線反射膜の一部に近接した外縁近傍結合部を有しているので、外縁近傍結合部によって絶縁性フィルム外縁の近傍領域からも熱を伝えることができる。
すなわち、この赤外線センサでは、赤外線反射膜が、受光領域の周囲も覆って形成されているので、熱結合部を介して伝わった環境温度の変化が受光領域の周囲全体にも伝わり、さらに熱バランスの収束を早くすることが可能になる。したがって、第1の感熱素子側と第2の感熱素子側との間の空気対流による温度勾配が小さくなり、2つの感熱素子の応答速度を同等にすることが可能になる。
例えば、第2の感熱素子に対向する領域のみに赤外線反射膜が形成されている場合、周囲空気の対流により第2の感熱素子側から空気が流れてきたとき、第2の感熱素子の上方の赤外線反射膜が冷えて絶縁性フィルムの温度が局所的に変化してしまう。これに対し、本発明の赤外線センサでは、赤外線反射膜が第1の感熱素子に対向する受光領域の周囲も覆って形成されているため、空気の流れによって第2の感熱素子側の領域が冷えても赤外線反射膜の熱伝導性によって受光領域の周囲の温度も下がり、全体的に温度の差分が生じ難くなって、周囲空気の対流による影響を受け難くなる。なお、第1の感熱素子の上方の受光領域は赤外線反射膜で覆わないため、測定対象物からの赤外線の受光を妨げない。
すなわち、本発明に係る赤外線センサによれば、伝熱膜が、赤外線反射膜の一部に近接した熱結合部を有しているので、熱結合部を介して受光側と補償側との相互で環境温度の変化を効率的に伝えることができ、受光側と補償側との熱バランスの収束が早くなり、熱応答性が向上する。
したがって、本発明の赤外線センサによれば、熱応答性が高く、複写機やプリンタ等の加熱ローラの温度測定用として好適である。
上記一対の第1の配線6Aは、一端に第1の感熱素子5Aに接続された一対の第1の接着電極3Aを有している。また、上記一対の第2の配線6Bは、一端に第2の感熱素子5Bに接続された一対の第2の接着電極3Bを有している。
上記熱結合部Cは、第1の配線6Aの一部と熱結合させるための部分であり、第2の感熱素子5Bの近傍まで延在して第2の感熱素子5Bの近傍に配された補償側近傍結合部C1を有している。
上記赤外線反射膜8は、受光領域Dの周囲も覆って形成されている。
なお、第2の配線6Bは、第1の配線6Aに比べて短い距離で延在し、第2の端子電極4Bに達している。
上記伝熱膜7は、第1の配線6Aよりも広い面積で形成されている。
一対の伝熱膜7は、それぞれ第2の感熱素子5B側に延びており、第2の感熱素子5B側の端部が赤外線反射膜8の近傍まで達した補償側近傍結合部C1となっている。
上記第1の接着電極3A及び第2の接着電極3Bには、それぞれ対応する第1の感熱素子5A及び第2の感熱素子5Bの端子電極が半田等の導電性接着剤で接着されている。
なお、第1の端子電極4Aへの伝熱膜7の接続部分にくびれ部7aを形成しているので、くびれ部7aがサーマルランドとして機能し、ハンダ時に熱が必要以上に周囲に逃げてハンダが溶け難くなってハンダ不良となることを抑制することができる。
なお、図1において、裏面側の赤外線反射膜8を破線で図示している。また、図2の(a)(b)において、各端子電極、各配線、伝熱膜7及び赤外線反射膜8をハッチングで図示している。
上記一対の第1の端子電極4A及び一対の第2の端子電極4Bは、絶縁性フィルム2の角部近傍に配設されている。
この赤外線反射膜8は、絶縁性フィルム2よりも高い赤外線反射率を有する材料で形成され、上述したように、銅箔上に金メッキ膜が施されて形成されている。なお、金メッキ膜の他に、例えば鏡面のアルミニウム蒸着膜やアルミニウム箔等で形成しても構わない。
さらに、赤外線反射膜8が、受光領域Dの周囲も覆って形成されているので、熱結合部Cを介して伝わった環境温度の変化が受光領域Dの周囲全体にも伝わり、さらに熱バランスの収束を早くすることが可能になる。したがって、第1の感熱素子5A側と第2の感熱素子5B側との間の空気対流による温度勾配が小さくなり、2つの感熱素子の応答速度を同等にすることが可能になる。
すなわち、第2実施形態では、伝熱膜27が、第1実施形態よりも第2の感熱素子5B側に延びており、その第2の感熱素子5B側の端部が赤外線反射膜8の直下まで達して補償側近傍結合部C2となっている。
このように第3実施形態の赤外線センサ31では、熱結合部Cが、前記近傍領域の赤外線反射膜8の一部に近接した外縁近傍結合部C3を有しているので、外縁近傍結合部C3によって絶縁性フィルム2外縁の近傍領域からも熱を伝えることができる。
なお、補償側近傍結合部C1及び外縁近傍結合部C3を、第2実施形態のように、さらに延ばして赤外線反射膜8の一部に対向して形成しても構わない。
