Definitions
- Movements that are shorter than the respective barcodes result in measurement inaccuracies, which are only canceled when a movement of the piston rod takes place, which is greater than the length of a bar code and thus an exact absolute position can be detected again.
- Another measure for miniaturizing the sensor arrangement is to arrange the evaluation unit on the printed circuit board.
- the computing power required for the evaluation can also be achieved with very small-sized value units and microprocessors. be adjusted, whereby a first image data evaluation can already be integrated in the sensor array.
- the measurement results are not output directly at the sensor arrangement, but rather the position measurement data are further processed by an external evaluation unit, for example a control and regulating device of the device comprising the fluid cylinder, it is advantageous if an interface to the power supply and Data transmission is arranged.
- the compactness of the sensor arrangement can also be increased by connecting a second printed circuit board parallel or at an angle to the printed circuit board, to which an evaluation unit and / or a power supply component and / or a data interface is arranged.
- the components of the sensor arrangement are divided by this embodiment into several circuit boards, whereby the individual circuit boards require a smaller area and the housing of the sensor arrangement can be kept relatively narrow and it does not protrude over the outer diameter of the fluid cylinder.
- FIG. 4 shows a radial section through a possible embodiment of a position-measuring device in the region of the light-guiding element
- FIG 5 shows a radial section through a possible embodiment of a position measuring device in the region of the measuring optics.
- the fluid cylinder 1 shows a view of a fluid cylinder 1 with a position measuring device 2 according to the invention.
- the fluid cylinder 1 essentially comprises a cylinder tube 3 in which a piston, not shown, is guided which is displaced by supply or removal of fluid in the cylinder tube 3.
- the cylinder tube 3 is closed at one end with a cylinder bottom 4 and closed at the opposite end with a cylinder head 5 through which a piston rod 6 connected to the piston is led out.
- the fluid cylinder 1 can be designed as a hydraulic cylinder or pneumatic cylinder, the embodiment of the position measuring device 2 according to the invention is not relevant.
- the piston rod may be formed by the piston itself, and the invention is not limited to the fluid cylinder 1 having a separate piston rod 6 but is applicable to plunger cylinders.
- the optically detected by the sensor assembly 9 portion of the code pattern 8 corresponds to a codeword, which is associated with a unique piston rod position.
- the sensor arrangement 9 detects a specific measurement section of the code pattern 8 which extends in the direction of the piston rod axis 10 and is assigned an unambiguous piston rod position by an evaluation unit to an optically detected code word. If, for example, the measuring section in the piston rod direction 10 has a length which corresponds to eight times the line width of a bar marking 11, then the respective position of the piston rod 6 can be detected by a code word with 8 bits.
- the position measuring device 2 with the sensor arrangement 9 and its mode of operation will be described in greater detail on the basis of FIGS. 2 to 5.
- 2 shows a view of the housing section 13 removed from the rest of the housing 12, the sensor arrangement 9 being fastened therein in the illustrated embodiment, whereby it is particularly easily accessible.
- the attachment of the sensor arrangement 9 in a detachable housing section 13 makes it possible to mount these structurally unchanged on housing bases of different sizes, whereby only these have to be adapted to the respective fluid cylinder 1.
- the measuring optics 21 contains optical lens elements, for example of Plexiglas
- the light guide 22 may have an approximately rectangular cross-section, wherein a longer side of the rectangular cross-section parallel to the piston rod axis 10 and thereby the light exit surface has approximately the shape of the Meßausiteses to be illuminated.
- the cross-section of the light-guiding element 22 increases from the light entry surface to the light exit surface, whereby the light flux can also increase in its cross section.
- the light exit surface of the light-guiding element 22 corresponds at least to three times the light entry surface.
- the light-guiding element 22 it is possible for the light-guiding element 22 to be pivotably mounted on the measuring optics 21 or, conversely, for the measuring optics 21 to be mounted pivotably on the light-guiding element 22. These are thus directly coupled to each other and possible axle deviations are minimized by assembly errors.
- the measuring section on the piston rod surface 7 detected by the image sensor 16 preferably covers a length of at least 15 bits of the code pattern 8. By acquiring code words with a length of 15 bits, a matching pseudo-random code can be used easily more than 1,000 different absolute positions of the piston rod 6 are clearly identified.
- the line scan camera element 20 has a resolution of between 200 and 1200 DPI, for example 400 DPI, which gives an easily sufficient resolution for the detection of bar marks 11 with a width of 1 mm.
- FIG. 4 shows a radial section through a position measuring device 2 in the region of the light-guiding element 22, and FIG. 5 shows a radial section through the position-measuring device 2 in the region of the measuring optical system.
- the light entry surface 26 is executed in the illustrated embodiment as a substantially flat surface, which is particularly easy to manufacture and can still meet the requirements for the light guide to the measurement section 29. Notwithstanding the concave design shown in solid lines, the light exit surface 28 may be designed as a substantially planar surface, as indicated in Fig. 4 and thereby further simplifies the production of the light-guiding element 22.
- the illumination source 15 in the form of the LED element 23 is fastened to the printed circuit board 17, which is fastened in the removable outer housing section 13 in the illustrated embodiment. As FIG. 4 shows, it is possible to provide to the printed circuit board 17 parallel or at an angle thereto a second printed circuit board 30 on which components of the sensor array 9 can likewise be arranged.
- the light-guiding element 22 extends over the majority of the distance 32 between the illumination source 15 and outer circumference 7 of the piston rod 6, but advantageously over at least 50% of the distance 32. This ensures that the majority of the light emitted by the illumination source 15 Luminous flux to the measuring section 29 is passed.
- FIG. 4 shows two further possibilities for achieving the most uniform possible illumination of the measurement section 29.
- the first possibility is to use a concave light exit surface 28, which, however, may also be designed to be locally planar or also partially convex.
- the concave design shown causes a further dispersion of the luminous flux and thus a uniform illumination strength is achieved.
- the circuit board 17 is fixed in its position within the removable housing portion 13 from the outside, for example by means of adjustable screws ,
- the sensor arrangement 9 can be optimally adapted to different mounting positions and piston rod diameter.
- the light-guiding element 22 has a light entrance surface 26 of 6 mm ⁇ 4 mm and a light exit surface 28 of 24 mm ⁇ 4 mm, whereby on the one hand the radiating surface 24 of approximately 1 mm ⁇ 1 mm at the illumination source 15 and the measuring section 29 at the Piston rod surface 7 are sufficiently covered and only a small proportion of the luminous flux is lost.
- Fig. 5 shows in radial section still the optical image of the measuring section 29 on the image sensor 16 in the form of the line camera element 20, wherein the focusing takes place in a direction immediately in front of the line camera element 20 by a cylindrical lens.
- FIGS. 4 and 5 form the subject of independent solutions according to the invention.
- the relevant objects and solutions according to the invention can be found in the detailed descriptions of these figures.
