Embodiment
With reference to figure 2, system 20 is adapted at using in supermarket or the department store, the thing of purchasing with the clearing house.System 20 comprises a passage 201 and an aerial array 203.Passage 201 is fit to allow an object 207 pass through, and has a characteristic straight-line dimension R in a characteristic cross section 205.In this embodiment, characteristic cross section 205 is a border circular areas, and characteristic straight-line dimension R is the diameter of border circular areas for this reason.Aerial array 203 is to arrange on every side along one of characteristic cross section 205, in order to when object 207 passes through passage 201, detects a RF identification label 209 with an operating frequency.Though the characteristic cross section 205 of first embodiment is a border circular areas, the present invention does not limit its shape.For instance, it also can be a rectangle.
The electromagnetic wave that is produced by aerial array 203,201 two openings 211 and 213 are the decay of exponential type from characteristic cross section 205 to passage.Passage 201 has a cutoff frequency.According to waveguide theory, the electromagnetic wave that any frequency is lower than cutoff frequency can't be sent out passage 201, and wherein cutoff frequency is determined by characteristic straight-line dimension R.Particularly, characteristic straight-line dimension R is inversely proportional to cutoff frequency.Therefore, but design characteristics straight-line dimension R makes cutoff frequency also bigger than a predetermined operating frequency.On the other hand, operating frequency can be set to also littler than predetermined cutoff frequency.By the electromagnetic wave that aerial array 203 is produced, above-mentioned two kinds of methods all can make it can not be sent to passage 201 outsides.Therefore, such arrangement can be avoided near the use of the electronic device the system that has influence on 20, and can avoid influencing the health of human body.
System 20 also comprises a travelling belt 215 (conveyer), runs to opening 213 from opening 211, to be used for transmitting object 207 and to control moving of object 207.When object 207 was sent near aerial array 203, label 209 can be detected.
Passage 201 comprises an inside surface 217 and an outside surface 219.The inside surface 217 of passage 201 is equipped with a microwave absorber (microwave absorber) to absorb the electromagnetic wave that is produced by aerial array 203, mainly can avoid electromagnetic wave to be sent to passage 201 outsides.Outside surface 219 is covered by a metallics, and can stop some outside precipitate electromagnetic waves, makes these precipitate external electromagnetic waves can not disturb label to detect.
Aerial array 203 comprises four antennas, and promptly antenna 203a, 203b, 203c reach one (not being shown among the figure) on the 203b opposite.These four antennas prolonging characteristic cross section 205 around equidistant spaced apart, corresponding label 209 forms a cognizable pattern of an electromagnetic riveting machine signal.Yet the present invention does not limit the antenna amount of aerial array.System 20 also comprises a processor 221 that is attached to aerial array 203, in order to analyzing cognizable pattern, and then by identification label 209 and identification objects 207.
Because there is good barrier in system 20, so the power of scalable aerial array 203, near the people's can not injuring with tags detected 209 clearly is healthy.
Fig. 3 shows a system 30, compares with system 20, and system 30 has also comprised two barriers (shields) (301 and 303), in order to optionally to cover opening 211 and 213 respectively.When barrier 301 and 303 was closed, electromagnetic wave can be isolated in the inside of passage.Barrier 301 and 303 can be door, a dividing plate or the curtain with electric conductivity, is attached on the passage in a movable manner.In addition, barrier 301 can cooperate with the inlet of object with 303, for instance, and in a supermarket, in order to avoid some other object of client due to not of wrong detection.
Comprise a passage 401 and an aerial array 403 with reference to figure 4, one systems 40.Passage 401 is in order to allowing an object 411 that contains a label 413 pass through, and passage 401 has a straight portion 405, one first sweep 407 and one second sweep 409.In this embodiment, the cross section of straight portion 405 is a rectangular area.Straight portion 405 has two relative end points 417 and 419.First sweep 407 joins with end points 417, and second sweep 409 joins with end points 419.Aerial array 403 is in order to tags detected 413 when object 411 passes through passage 401, and is prolonging one of straight portion 405 and 415 arranging on every side.First and second sweep (407,409) all turn 90 degrees and makes passage in the same direction straight portion 405 is a U type shape.The electromagnetic wave that is produced by aerial array 403 is limited in the passage 401 by first and second sweep (407,409).
Aerial array 403 comprises four antennas, and promptly antenna 403a, 403b, one (not being shown among the figure) on the 403a opposite reach one (not being shown among the figure) on the 403b opposite.415 passages 401 had by 415 cutoff frequencys that determined (cutoff frequency) on every side around these four antennas were prolonging.Particularly, 415 length is inversely proportional to cutoff frequency on every side.Therefore, can design on every side and 415 make cutoff frequency also bigger than operating frequency.On the other hand, operating frequency can be set to also littler than cutoff frequency.Above-mentioned two kinds of methods all can make the electromagnetic wave that is produced by aerial array 403 can not be sent to passage 401 outsides.
System 40 also comprises a travelling belt (conveyer) 421, runs to opening 425 from opening 423, to be used for transmitting object 411 and to control moving of object 411.When object 411 was sent near aerial array 403, label 413 can be detected.
Passage 401 comprises an inside surface 427 and an outside surface 429.The inside surface 427 of passage 401 is equipped with a microwave absorber, to absorb the electromagnetic wave that is produced by aerial array 403, can avoid electromagnetic wave to be sent to passage 401 outsides.Outside surface 429 is covered by a metallics, and can stop some outside precipitate electromagnetic waves, makes these precipitate external electromagnetic waves can not disturb label to detect.
System 40 also comprises a processor 431 that is attached to aerial array 403, in order to analyze cognizable pattern and to have followed by identification label 413 and identification objects 411.
Comprise a passage 501 and an aerial array 503 with reference to figure 5, one systems 50.Passage 501 is in order to allowing an object 511 that contains a label 513 pass through, and has a straight portion 505, one first sweep 507 and one second sweep 509.Straight portion 505 has two relative end points 515 and 517.First sweep 507 joins with end points 515, and second sweep 509 joins with end points 517.System 50 is that with the difference of system 40 first and second sweep (507,509) is that straight portion 505 is turn 90 degrees in the opposite direction, is a S type shape and make passage 501.Similarly, first and second sweep (507,509) can avoid being sent to by the electromagnetic wave that aerial array 403 is produced the outside of passage 401.
Use aforesaid system, if increase the power of aerial array, can harm people yet healthy, near the electronic equipment yet can EVAC (Evacuation Network Computer Model).This class The Application of Technology can be at the supermarket, use in department store, retail trade, wholesale business, tourist quarters, government bodies, pharmacy and the relevant place.
The above is the preferred embodiments of the present invention only, is not in order to limit claim of the present invention; All other do not break away from the equivalence of being finished under the disclosed spirit and changes or modification, all should comprise within the scope of the invention.
