Definitions

  • the invention relates to an arrangement for the automatic cleaning of windows according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • cloud height and visual measuring devices as well as certain types of distance measuring devices, all of which operate on the principle of optical radar, which means that short light pulses are emitted by a transmitter.
  • optical radar which means that short light pulses are emitted by a transmitter.
  • the receiver of the measuring device When the light pulse hits a cloud or some other reflective object, reflections occur on that object and a small part of the reflected light is collected by the receiver of the measuring device, which is arranged next to the transmitter. The time it takes for the light to travel the distance from the transmitter to the reflecting object and from this back to the receiver is measured, and from this the cloud height or the line of sight or the distance can be calculated based on the known speed of light.
  • Transmitter and receiver are built into a so-called transceiver, which also contains the optics and the necessary electronic equipment.
  • the emitted light passes through a transmitter window and the reflected light passes through a receiver window before it reaches a signal detector via the receiver optics.
  • window wipers with wiper blades such as those used for cleaning headlights and windows in cars, cannot be used, and also not in conjunction with a washing liquid, since they press relatively strongly against the glass.
  • the signals detected by the signal detector are greatly reduced by precipitation in the form of rain and snow on the windows.
  • the signals detected by the signal detector are greatly reduced by precipitation in the form of rain and snow on the windows.
  • This cleaning must be carried out continuously during the entire period of precipitation in order to keep the windows sufficiently clean.
  • the invention has for its object to develop an arrangement of the type mentioned, which ensures reliable and convenient way for an automatic cleaning of windows, and which is particularly suitable for keeping the windows of cloud height and visual measuring devices clean.
  • the degree of soiling of the windows is continuously monitored, and as soon as a certain soiling limit is exceeded, a cleaning device is started that removes water and dirt from the window.
  • the arrangement is designed so that there are no scratches on the window surfaces. When the windows are clean are or a sufficient degree of cleanliness has been reached, the cleaning device is stopped.
  • the arrangement according to the. Invention is designed so that it does not affect the normal course of operation of a cloud height or visual measuring device.
  • the window glass used in measuring devices in which measuring radiation passes through the glass is normally treated with anti-reflection in order not to cause greater attenuation of the light signals itself.
  • the arrangement according to the invention uses the light reflected in this way as information that a foreign layer, for example rain or snow, is on the outside of the window.
  • the logic unit of the cloud height measuring device processes the measured reflection values, and if the measured reflection signal exceeds a certain value, a cleaning device is activated.
  • the cleaning device can operate by blowing high pressure air along the window.
  • Another possibility is to use a swinging or rotating drying arm that is close to the glass surface lies, has an open gap or a row of holes directed towards the glass, compressed air and / or a rinsing liquid being fed through the hollow drying arm in such a way that a film or a veil of compressed air and / or liquid forms between the drying arm and the glass and slides over the glass.
  • the cleaning sequence can be controlled in such a way that rinsing and then drying by blowing with heated high-pressure air are carried out lengthways along the window. If the measured value for the light reflected on the surface of the glass becomes zero or falls below a low comparison value, the cleaning device is stopped.
  • the measuring device shown equally in FIGS. 1 and 2 for measuring the cloud height, visibility or a distance comprises parts 1 to 9.
  • the measuring device works on the principle of optical radar.
  • the transmitter part includes the transmitter 1, the transmitter optics 2 and the transmitter window 3.
  • the receiver part includes the receiver window 4, the receiver optics 5, the receiver 6 and the signal detector 7.
  • the processor 8 contains the electronic equipment which, among other things, activates the laser transmitter and the Measurement course controls, counts the pulses and transmits data 9 to be written and / or displayed devices.
  • the cleaning arrangement according to the invention includes a light guide 10 and a feed element 11 for the cleaning device 12. Otherwise, the cleaning arrangement uses the transmitter and receiver units already present in the measuring device.
  • the cleaning arrangement according to FIG. 2 contains its own transmitter 13 with feed element 14 and its own receiver 15 with signal detector 16 as well as the cleaning device 18 with feed element 17, via which the cleaning device is switched on.
  • Both embodiments of the invention work on the same principle.
  • the foreign layer (dirt, snow, rain) on the outside of the transmitter window is detected by measuring the radiation reflected by this layer. Since the spatial distance between the transmitter window and the receiver window is small, it can be assumed that the foreign layer is the same on both windows. In principle, there can also be a common window for the transmitter and receiver.
  • the radiation reflected by the foreign layer e.g. water drops
  • the radiation reflected by the foreign layer e.g. water drops
  • the transmitter and receiver of the measuring device itself are used to detect a possible foreign layer.
  • the light reflected from the outside of the transmitter window 3 is collected and passed directly to the receiver 6 via the light guide 10.
  • a special measurement sequence is programmed in the processor 8 for this reflection measurement, and the corresponding reflected signal is processed by the processor.
  • the reflection measurement for detecting the foreign layer is controlled by the processor so that it is either before or after a cloud height or visibility measurement done so as not to disturb the latter.
  • the value of the measured reflected light is compared in processor 8 with a predetermined comparison value which corresponds to the maximum permissible contamination of the transmitter window. If the comparison value is exceeded, the processor 8 sends a signal to the feed element 11 which sets the cleaning device 12 in motion.
  • the cleaning arrangement has its own transmitter 13 with its own feed element 14 for illuminating the transmitter window 3 and its own receptions @ Xit detector 16 for measuring the light reflected from the transmitter window.
  • the processor 8 takes on the same function in this cleaning arrangement as in FIG. 1. It therefore controls the transmitter 13 and receiver 15, converts the reflected light into a measured value for the degree of soiling of the window, compares this value with a predetermined comparison value which is the highest permissible pollution corresponds, and activates the feed member 17 of the cleaning device 18 when the measured value exceeds the comparison value.
  • the cleaning devices 12 and 18 in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 are the same device, but, as already mentioned, can be designed in different ways.
  • the device can be a high-pressure unit which blows heated air along windows 3 and 4.
  • an additional cleaning device can be used to achieve a better cleaning effect.
  • the supplement can consist of a back-and-forth or rotating wiper blade with a soft contact edge on the outside of the transmitter window.
  • the cleaning process can be programmed, for example, in such a way that first rinsing and then drying by blowing with heated compressed air takes place.
  • the cleaning device is automatically stopped after the window has been cleaned, i.e. as soon as no or only a small amount of light is reflected on the outside of the window.
  • the measurement can of course be carried out on the transmitter and receiver window or only on one of the windows. If the measurement is carried out on the receiver window, a light guide is used in the embodiment according to FIG. 1, which transmits light from the transmitter for illuminating the receiver window.
  • the embodiment according to FIG. 2 can be used for the receiver window in the same way as for the transmitter window. It is also possible to work only with a separate transmitter 13 and, for example, the own receiver 6 of the cloud height measuring device, the receiver 6 collecting the reflections caused by the foreign layer on the window glass. If disturbing reflections from the foreign layer measurement on the glass can occur or if the cloud height measuring system of the cloud height measuring device is used, the measurement of the Foreign window layer are made in such a way that the cloud height or visibility measurement is not disturbed.
