Title
(EN) SAFETY GUARD BEAM LIGHT SWITCH
(FR) INTERRUPTEUR DE LUMIERE DE FAISCEAU DE SECURITE
Abstract
(EN)
Apparatus for actively protecting people, a so-called safety guard beam light switch, comprises an electronic monitoring unit (1), an optical transmitter (40) and an optical receiver (60). The monitoring unit (1) includes an oscillator (25) which is operative to transmit a first pulse train (26) to the receiver (60), via the transmitter (40), and also directly to each of two separate logic test units (45, 65). The test units are operative to effect continuously signal-synchronized and duplicated monitoring of the serviceability of all of the components in the device and also to ascertain the presence of an optical obstacle between the transmitter (40) and the receiver (60). By-passing of the monitoring unit (1) is duplicated and monitored. In accordance with a second embodiment, one or more series-connected receiver/transmitter units (41A, 41B) are positioned between the transmitter (40) and the receiver (60). In accordance with a third embodiment, the transmitter (40) comprises a plurality of parallel-connected transmitters (40A) and the receiver (60) comprises an equal number of parallel-connected receivers (60A).

L'invention concerne un appareil de protection active de personnes, appelé interrupteur de lumière de faisceau de sécurité, comprend une unité de contrôle électronique (1), un émetteur optique (40) ainsi qu'un récepteur optique (60). L'unité de contrôle (1) comprend un oscillateur (25) transmettant un premier train d'impulsions (26) au récepteur (60), via l'émetteur (40), et aussi directement à chacune des deux unités (45, 65) de test logiques séparées. Les unités de test ont pour rôle de procéder à un contrôle en continu synchronisé et dupliqué de signaux de l'état de tous les éléments du dispositif, et de s'assurer de la présence d'un obstacle optique entre l'émetteur (40) et le récepteur (60). Le montage en dérivation de l'unité de contrôle (1) est dupliqué et contrôlé. Selon un second mode de réalisation, une ou plusieurs unités (41A, 41B) de récepteurs/émetteurs connectées en série, sont positionnées contre l'émetteur (40) et le récepteur (60). Dans un troisième mode de réalisation, l'émetteur (40) comprend une pluralité d'émetteurs (40A) connectés en parallèle, et le récepteur (60) comprend un nombre égal de récepteurs (60A) connectés en parallèle.
