Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung geht von der Gattung aus, wie im unabhängigen Anspruch 1 angegeben.The invention is based on the genus, as in the independent Claim 1 specified.
Zur Brandfrüherkennung werden im allgemeinen Rauchmelder eingesetzt. Ein Verfahren, Rauchpartikel zu detektieren, besteht in der Messung von an Rauchpartikeln gestreuter Strahlung. Solche auf dem Streustrahlungsprinzip beruhende Rauchmelder benutzen üblicherweise das Verfahren der Vorwärtsstreuung, weil damit größere Signale am Strahlungsempfänger zu erzielen sind. Ein solcher Rauchmelder besteht aus einem Strahlungssender (normalerweise gepulst), einer Linse zur Bündelung der Strahlen und einem Strahlungsempfänger, zum Beispiel einer Photodiode, gegebenenfalls mit einer Linse zum Einfangen des Streukegels der gestreuten Strahlung. Strahlungsempfänger und Strahlungssender haben keine direkte Sichtverbindung, sondern sind durch entsprechende mechanische Maßnahmen optisch voneinander getrennt. Zwischen der Strahlungssenderichtung und der Empfangsrichtung liegt ein stumpfer Winkel, und der Streuwinkel an den zu detektierenden Rauchpartikeln ist ebenfalls stumpf. Smoke detectors are generally used for early fire detection used. One method is to detect smoke particles in the measurement of radiation scattered on smoke particles. Such smoke detectors based on the scattered radiation principle usually use the forward scattering method, because it means bigger signals at the radiation receiver can be achieved. Such a smoke detector consists of one Radiation transmitter (usually pulsed), a lens for Bundling the rays and a radiation receiver to Example of a photodiode, possibly with a lens to capture the scattering cone of the scattered radiation. Radiation receivers and radiation transmitters have no direct Line of sight, but are by appropriate mechanical Measures optically separated. Between the Radiation transmission direction and the reception direction lies obtuse angle, and the scattering angle at the detected Smoke particles are also dull.
Neben diesen vorwärtsstreuenden Rauchmeldern gibt es Ausführungen mit Rückwärtsstreuung. Hierbei sind Strahlungssender und Strahlungsempfänger nebeneinander angeordnet, der Streuwinkel, ist spitz (Patentschrift DE 38 31 654 C2).In addition to these forward-scattering smoke detectors, there are versions with backward scattering. Here are radiation transmitters and radiation receiver arranged side by side, the scattering angle, is pointed (patent DE 38 31 654 C2).
Nachteilig an den bekannten Verfahren ist jeweils, daß nur ein kleiner Anteil der gestreuten Strahlung auf den Strahlungsempfänger fällt, während die verbleibende Streustrahlung für die Messung verloren ist. Weiterhin wird nur jeweils einer der bevorzugten Meßeffekte, Vorwärts- bzw. Rückwärtsstreuung, ausgenutzt.A disadvantage of the known methods is that only a small proportion of the scattered radiation on the radiation receiver falls while the remaining scattered radiation for the measurement is lost. Furthermore, only each one of the preferred measurement effects, forward or backward scattering, exploited.
Aus dem Dokument WO-A-8909392 ist ein auf dem Streustrahlungsprinzip beruhender Verschmutzungsdetektor bekannt, wobei die Meßkammer aus einem innen verspiegelten Rohr mit elliptischem Querschnitt besteht und wobei der Strahlungssender entlang eines Brennpunkts ausstrahlt und der Strahlungsempfänger auf dem zweitem Brennpunkt am Ende des Rohres angebracht ist.From document WO-A-8909392 is based on the scattered radiation principle based pollution detector known, the measuring chamber from a inside mirrored tube with an elliptical cross section and where the Radiation transmitter emits along a focal point and the radiation receiver is attached to the second focal point at the end of the tube.
Der Anmeldungsgegenstand mit den Merkmalen des Anspruches 1 hat folgenden Vorteil:The subject of the application with the features of claim 1 has the following advantage:
Die Erfindung ermöglicht es, fast die gesamte an den Rauchpartikeln gestreute Strahlung einem Strahlungsempfänger als Meßsignal zuzuführen. Dies beinhaltet sowohl die vorwärtsgestreute Strahlung, die rückwärtsgestreute Strahlung, als auch die gestreute Strahlung aller Zwischenbereiche. Damit wird die Messung insgesamt empfindlicher, da fast kein Verlust durch nicht eingefangene Strahlung entsteht. Der erfindungsgemäße Rauchmelder berücksichtigt weiterhin, die durch unterschiedliche Partikeldurchmesser begründeten Streuungseigenschaften.The invention allows almost all of the smoke particles Scattered radiation as a radiation receiver Feed measurement signal. This includes both the forward scattered Radiation, the backscattered radiation, as also the scattered radiation from all intermediate areas. In order to the measurement becomes more sensitive overall since there is almost no loss caused by radiation not captured. The invention Smoke detectors continue to take into account that caused by different particle diameters give rise to scattering properties.
Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen sind in den abhängigen Ansprüchen angegeben, deren Merkmale auch, soweit sinnvoll, miteinander kombiniert werden können. Advantageous further developments are in the dependent claims specified, their characteristics also, as far as reasonable, with each other can be combined.
Als Strahlungssender kann eine lichtemittierende Diode, ein Halbleiterlaser oder eine Blitzlampe vorgesehen sein.A light-emitting diode can be used as the radiation transmitter Semiconductor laser or a flash lamp may be provided.

und in der nachfolgenden Beschreibung näher erläutert.
Es ist dargestellt in
Im wesentlichen gleiche Teile in unterschiedlichen Figuren sind mit gleichen Bezugszeichen versehen.Essentially the same parts in different figures are provided with the same reference numerals.
Figur 1 zeigt die prinzipielle Anordnung mit einem durch die
Brennpunkte 1 und 2 eines Hohlellipsoids 3 geführten
Schnitt. Das Hohlellipsoid 3 ist innen verspiegelt und mit
Öffnungen 4 versehen, die im Verhältnis zur Innenfläche des
Hohlellipsoids 3 klein sind, also beispielsweise max. 10%
der Innenfläche ausmachen. Der erste Brennpunkt 1 und seine
unmittelbare Umgebung bilden das Meßfeld 5, wo Rauchpartikel
zugleich durch einen Strahlungssender 6 bestrahlt und durch
einen Strahlungsempfänger 7 im Brennpunkt 2 detektiert werden
können. Zu dem Strahlungsempfänger 7 gehört ein Strahlungssammler,
der im zweiten Brennpunkt 2 angebracht ist. Es
kann dort aber auch stattdessen der Strahlungsempfänger
selbst angebracht sein. Als Strahlungssammler kann beispielsweise
jeweils eine Halbkugellinse für die unterhalb
der Zeichenebe bzw. oberhalb der Zeichenebene liegende Halbschale
des Hohlellipsoids 3 dienen.Figure 1 shows the basic arrangement with a by

oder einem äquivalenten Bauelement bestehen. Die Photodioden
können so angeordnet sein, daß eine bevorzugt die
Strahlung aus der Rückwärtsstreuung und die andere bevorzugt
die Strahlung aus der Vorwärtsstreuung empfängt, wie in Figur
2 angedeutet, so der Bereich der Rückwärtsstreuung durch
den Empfangswinkel 8 bezeichnet ist. Damit wird es möglich,
die aus den verschiedenen Streuwinkeln empfangene Streustrahlung
in einer einzigen Auswerteeinheit getrennt voneinander
zu bewerten und Rückschlüsse auf die jeweilige Brandart
zu ziehen, die typisch für die jeweilige Partikelgröße
ist. Andere sinnvolle Bewertungen von Winkelbereichen sind
möglich.The radiation receiver can consist of one or more photodiodes
or an equivalent component. The photodiodes
can be arranged so that one is preferred
Radiation from the backscatter and the other preferred
receives the radiation from the forward scatter as in Figure
2 indicated, so the range of backward scattering through

Der durch das Hohlellipsoid 3 gebildete Spiegel kann, wie in
Figur 1 gezeigt, mit einer Anzahl von Öffnungen 4 versehen
sein, die es den Rauchpartikeln ermöglichen, in das Meßfeld
5 vorzudringen. Die Öffnungen 4 sind bezüglich des Oberflächenverbrauches
klein gegenüber der Gesamtoberfläche, so daß
kein nennenswerter Verlust an dem Anteil der vom Hohlellipsoid
3 reflektierten Strahlung auftritt.The mirror formed by the
Wie Figur 3 zeigt, ist es auch möglich, eine Kuppe oder beide
Kuppen an den Enden der Längsachse des Hohlellipsoids 3
anzuschneiden, um einen Raucheintritt durch eine Öffnung 4a
zu ermöglichen. As Figure 3 shows, it is also possible to use a crest or both
Peaks at the ends of the longitudinal axis of the
Schließlich ist es gemäß Fig. 4 möglich, nur eine Teilschale
9 eines Hohlellipsoids zu verwenden, um freien Zugang der
Rauchpartikel zum Messen zu ermöglichen. Diese Lösung zeichnet
sich durch einen einfachen konstruktiven Aufbau aus.
Hier ist ersichtlich, daß - wie auch in den anderen Figuren
- in der Verlängerung der Strecke vom Strahlungssender 6 zum
Meßfeld 5 eine Lichtfalle 10 angeordnet ist. Halteelemente
11 für den Strahlungsempfänger 7 sind schematisch dargestellt.Finally, it is possible according to FIG. 4, only a
Alle beschriebenen Ausführungsbeispiele können, wie bei optischen
Rauchmeldern üblich, mit einem Labyrinth versehen
sein, um den Eintritt von Fremdlicht in das Hohlellipsoid 3
zu verhindern.All of the described embodiments can, as with optical
