Definitions

  • the invention relates to a test device in processing machines in the Preamble of claim 1 Art.
  • DE 41 22 916 describes a device for feeding Tickets and magnetic cards to a magnetic card reader. Become a defined guide Rollers and pressure springs used. Similar guides, especially free running stored contact and measuring rollers are used in DE 40 16 961, in which a Measuring method and a device for determining the electrical sheet resistance is set out by metal strips.
  • DE 35 13 635 describes one Institution for the acceptance, examination and storage of notes of value, one of which Test positioning is carried out by means of a nip, with the same disadvantages as described above.
  • DE 40 37 333 describes an adapter for contacting passively Components with measuring and testing equipment, in the fixed and movable Contact parts and pneumatically movable contact pins can be used. This The type of test object positioning is very complex and only in a few Processing machines can be used.
  • GB 2 016 141 describes a system for Detection of the presence of an object to be checked within a specific one Area. Since a distance measurement is to be carried out, there are no pressure means to use.
  • the pressure media to be used for testing devices for authenticity measurement are used for the safe functioning of these devices.
  • the known pressure devices are subject to wear and wear and tear Test objects at.
  • the object of the invention is a device in processing machines for detection of security features on objects to be checked in such a way that the otherwise necessary pressure devices for the defined spaced and / or touching Passing the test objects past the test device and this device are eliminated is compactly connected to the test electronics for easy handling guarantee.
  • a device for detecting security features objects to be tested as a compact device a sensor carrier for Inclusion of different and interchangeable sensors, brackets and attachments for installation in existing and / or new processing machines, a board that the Includes evaluation circuit and connecting elements to the sensors and depending on Interchangeable cover for the intended purpose and objects to be checked.
  • an object to be checked is conveyed to the Multi-compact sensor according to the invention in a defined position and speed introduced. Inadmissible deviations are detected by sensors and lead to Interruption of normal operations.
  • the test object e.g. a banknote
  • This force is not achieved by any pressure medium generated, but caused by the movement of the banknote itself.
  • the test sensor system is therefore within the rising level arranged because at this point the distance between the test object and the sensors is the least. The smaller the distance between security features of the test object and the sensors, the higher the test reliability.
  • Test object By taking advantage of the Test object acting forces not parallel to the direction of movement as a result of a defined contact between the test object and the device according to the invention Test object so positively guided that a test using sensors is spaced in a defined manner and / or touching.
  • This test is carried out by means of the device Sensors that can be selected based on defined modes of operation that are adapted to the test object work individually or in combination.

  • the test plane 8 is angled by a defined angle ⁇ to the transport direction A of the test object 16 , so that the test object 16 is positively guided to the sensors 11 in a defined position.
  • the mounting bracket 3 and the locking bracket 4 correspond to the opening edges of the guide plate 5 so by means of recesses 18 that a change in the angle ⁇ is possible by adjusting devices 17 during assembly.
  • the angle ⁇ depends on the conditions of the processing machine and the mode of operation of the sensors 11 and can be varied approximately between 5 ° and 30 °.
  • the guide plate 5 is chamfered, in particular by means of pointed grooves and / or rounded off, so that twisting, snagging, folding or rolling of the test object 16 is avoided.
  • the push-on bracket 3 and the locking bracket 4 are provided with detents, preferably dovetail locks 19 on the dividing lines B; C connected to the sensor carrier 1 .
  • the sensor carrier 1 are means of perforations, recesses, grooves and the like arranged to test plane 8 closed sensor supports 6 and / or for checking plane 8 open sensor slots fourteenth Sensor inserts 14 are chamfered and / or rounded on their rear edge 12 in the transport direction A in such a way that twisting of the test object, jamming or a change in the geometric shape, in particular kinking, folding, rolling or tearing, is avoided.
  • open sensor inserts 14 can also be closed with covers 7 made of substances that do not distort the measurement, preferably glass or polycarbonate, so that the test plane 9 is designed as a sliding plane that prevents an undesired change in position and / or geometry of the test object 16 .
  • the sensor receptacles 6 and / or the sensor inserts 14 are arranged in the sensor carrier 1 several times in parallel and / or several times in a row diagonally and / or in strips with their longest dimension transversely to the transport direction A.
  • the sensors 11 contained in the sensor receptacles and / or sensor inserts are connected to the circuit board 2 electrically, releasably by means of contact springs or non-releasably via one or more through-channels 13 .
  • the sensor receptacles 6 and the sensor inserts 14 serve to receive electrical and / or magnetic and / or optoelectronic sensors either individually or in combination.
  • the circuit board 2 which contains the evaluation electronics, is surrounded by a shield 15 , and this is connected by means of fastening means 10 , in particular a screw and spring connection.
  • fastening means 10 in particular a screw and spring connection.
  • Fig. 2 clip-on bracket 3 , locking bracket 4 and sensor cover 7 without sensor carrier 1 are shown. The simple interchangeability of these brackets, which are produced using the injection molding process, is thus given, and different brackets can be used for the diverse attachment in different processing machines.
  • FIG. 3 shows a section of a multi-compact sensor 20 , consisting of the circuit board 2 without shield 15 with sensors 11 fastened in preassembly and sensor carrier 1 with sensor receptacles 6 and sensor insert 14 which is chamfered on the rear edge 12 in the transport direction A.
  • 4 is a partial illustration of a multi-compact sensor 20 , consisting of the circuit board 2 with sensors 11 and sensor carrier 1 inserted via the sensor holder 6.
  • the sensors 11 are connected to the circuit board 2 by means of lead-through channels 13 and sliding or spring contacts. Material is used for the sensor cover 7 that does not act as a measurement error on the underlying sensors. Glass or polycarbonate are particularly suitable for this.
  • the plug-on bracket 3 and the fixing bracket 4 are adopted unchanged and only the sensor carrier 1 with the circuit board 2 attached below is replaced.
