Definitions

  • This invention relates generally to an infrared intrusion sensing system and in particular to a method and apparatus for restricting superfluous radiation not focused on a detector.
  • An infrared intrusion sensing system comprises a lens having a plurality of lines of focus for focusing infrared radiation that enters the system onto a detector.
  • An enclosure surrounding the detector provides isolation from insect entry.
  • the enclosure envelope is a protective volume of space for the optical path between the lens and the detector. Radiation focused by the lens to impinge in locations other than the detector is "superfluous" and is considered a source of false intrusion sensing by internal re-reflection inside the insect exclusion envelope. Elimination of superfluous radiation reaching the detector results in improved performance of the infrared intrusion sensing system and minimizes false alarms.
  • U.S. Patent No. 5,424,718 issued January 13, 1995 to Kurt Mühler et al. describes an IR intrusion detector using scattering to prevent false alarms by radiation outside the useful radiation band.
  • Focusing mirrors are provided with a rough surface for infrared selectivity. In the wavelength range from 6 to 15 micrometers, the infrared radiation is specularly reflected and focused in accordance with the shape of the mirrors. Extraneous radiation in the visible and near-infrared range from about 0.4 micrometer or less up to 3 micrometers is diffusely scattered. However, there is no scattering of extraneous infrared radiation to prevent such radiation from being detected.
  • the present invention provides a system and method as claimed in claims 1 and 12 herein.
  • an intrusion sensing system comprising a front assembly having a compound lens for focusing radiation, a circuit board including a radiation detector for sensing the radiation and circuitry for processing the detected radiation, a rear assembly for mating with the front assembly and enclosing the circuit board within the front assembly and the rear assembly, and the front assembly comprises means attached to the compound lens for excluding insects from the radiation detector and preventing superfluous radiation from reaching the radiation detector.
  • the insect excluding means comprises an opening on a first end adjacent to the compound lens for receiving the focused radiation and an opening on a second end which is smaller than the opening on the first end for accepting the radiation detector extending therethrough from the adjacent circuit board.
  • the insect excluding means comprises a pigmentation for absorbing the superfluous radiation, a textured surface for scattering superfluous radiation, and/or a contoured surface for preventing the superfluous radiation from reflecting onto the radiation detector.
  • the front assembly comprises another window on a bottom end of the front assembly for receiving radiation, and the radiation entering the sensing system through the bottom end window strikes mirrors above the detector for reflecting the radiation onto the radiation detector.
  • the pigmentation provides a black color to the insect excluding means.
  • the textured surface comprises repetitive, random deviations from a normal smooth surface to form a three-dimensional topography on the surface.
  • the contoured surface comprises peaks and valleys for causing lossy reflections of the superfluous radiation within the valleys.
  • an intrusion sensing system comprising a front assembly having a compound lens for focusing radiation, a circuit board including a radiation detector positioned opposite the compound lens for sensing the radiation and circuitry for processing the detected radiation, a rear assembly for mating with the front assembly and enclosing the circuit board within the front assembly and the rear assembly, the front assembly comprises means attached to the compound lens for excluding insects from the radiation detector, and the front assembly further comprises means inserted within the insect excluding means for suppressing superfluous radiation.

  • the suppressing means comprises a pigmentation for absorbing the superfluous radiation.
  • the insert suppressing means may comprise a textured surface for scattering superfluous radiation or a contoured surface for preventing the superfluous radiation from reflecting onto the radiation detector.
  • the front assembly comprises another window on a bottom end of the front assembly for receiving radiation, and the radiation entering the sensing system through the bottom end window strikes mirrors above the detector for reflecting the radiation onto the radiation detector.
  • an intrusion sensing system comprising a front assembly having a compound lens for focusing radiation, a circuit board including a radiation detector for sensing the radiation and circuitry for processing the detected radiation, a baffle having a first open end attached around the perimeter of the radiation detector and a second open end facing the compound lens for suppressing superfluous radiation, and a rear assembly for sealably mating with the front assembly and enclosing the circuit board within the front assembly and the rear assembly thereby excluding insects from entering the sensing system.
  • the baffle comprises an opening on a second end in front of the compound lens for receiving the focused radiation and an opening on a first end which is smaller than the opening on the second end for accepting the radiation detector extending therethrough from the adjacent circuit board.
  • the baffle comprises a pigmentation for absorbing the superfluous radiation.
  • the baffle may comprise a textured surface for scattering superfluous radiation, or a contoured surface for preventing the superfluous radiation from reflecting onto the radiation detector.
  • the front assembly comprises another window on a bottom end of the front assembly for receiving radiation, and the radiation entering the sensing system through the bottom end window strikes mirrors above the detector for reflecting the radiation onto the radiation detector.
  • a method of suppressing superfluous radiation in an intrusion sensing system comprising the steps of providing a front assembly having a compound lens for focusing radiation, sensing the radiation with a detector positioned on a circuit board including circuitry coupled to the detector for processing the sensed radiation, enclosing the intrusion sensing system with a rear assembly which is disposed adjacent to one side of the circuit board and joined together at the periphery of the front assembly, and providing a suppressing means within the front assembly for preventing superfluous radiation from reaching the detector and suppressing means attached to the compound lens prevents insects from entering the space envelope of the suppressing means within the system.
