Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Garnsensor zur Überwachung von mindestens einem Parameter eines laufenden Fadens nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a yarn sensor for monitoring at least one parameter of a running thread after the Preamble of claim 1.

Garnsensoren werden in den verschiedensten Ausführungen an Arbeitsstellen von Textilmaschinen, zum Beispiel von Spinnoder Spulmaschinen, eingesetzt. Für Garnsensoren können metallische Gehäuse Verwendung finden, in die elektronische Komponenten eingebaut sind. Üblicherweise bestehen derartige in Serienfertigung hergestellte metallische Gehäuse aus Druckguß, da das Druckgußverfahren beispielsweise gegenüber einer spanabhebenden Herstellung erheblich kostengünstiger ist. Für Druckguß geeignete Metalle sind Aluminium, Zink oder Magnesium. Aluminium ist zwar vorteilhaft leicht, hat aber den Nachteil, daß sich mit diesem Werkstoff im Druckgußverfahren keine feinen Konturen ausbilden lassen. Zink erlaubt zwar wegen seiner niedrigeren Viskosität die Ausbildung feiner Konturen, ist aber mehr als doppelt so schwer wie Aluminium und sehr spröde. Mit Magnesium lassen sich feine Konturen ausbilden, und dieser Werkstoff ist annähernd so leicht wie Aluminium, aber Magnesium ist gegenüber Lufteinwirkung nicht beständig und unterliegt der Oxydation.Yarn sensors are available in various designs Workplaces of textile machines, for example spinning or Winding machines. For yarn sensors can metallic housings are used in the electronic Components are installed. Usually there are Series-made metallic housings Die casting, as opposed to the die casting process, for example a machining production significantly cheaper is. Suitable metals for die casting are aluminum, zinc or Magnesium. Aluminum is advantageously light, but it has Disadvantage that with this material in the die casting process do not let fine contours develop. Zinc does allow because of its lower viscosity, the formation is finer Contours, but is more than twice as heavy as aluminum and very brittle. Fine contours can be created with magnesium train, and this material is almost as light as Aluminum, but magnesium is not against exposure to air resistant and subject to oxidation.

Wird als Material Kunststoff gewählt, lassen sich die vorerwähnten Nachteile vermeiden. Bei der Ausführung des Gehäuses aus Kunststoff können die Vorteile von geringen Materialkosten, geringen Herstellungskosten, geringem Gewicht sowie chemischer Beständigkeit genutzt werden. Die Ausbildung feiner Konturen ist problemlos möglich. Ein als Isolator wirkender Kunststoff begünstigt jedoch statische Aufladungen, die dadurch entstehen können, daß durch Reibung erzeugte elektrische Ladung vom durchlaufenden Garn an den Garnsensor abgegeben wird. Bei kapazitiver Messung können auf diese Weise unerwünschte Meßfehler auftreten.If plastic is selected as the material, the Avoid the aforementioned disadvantages. When executing the Plastic housings can take advantage of low Material costs, low manufacturing costs, light weight as well as chemical resistance. Training fine contours is easily possible. One as an insulator acting plastic favors static charges, that can arise from the fact that generated by friction electrical charge from the passing yarn to the yarn sensor is delivered. With capacitive measurement you can do this unwanted measurement errors occur.

Derartige statische Aufladung soll zum Beispiel mit einer Garn-Meßvorrichtung gemäß US-Patent 3,377,852 vermieden werden, deren blockförmiger Körper aus isolierendem Material besteht. Auf beiden Seiten des Meßspaltes sind Elektroden in dem Block so angeordnet, daß sie einen Kondensator, der für Garnmeßzwecke geeignet ist, bilden. Die Oberfläche im Meßspalt einschließlich der Oberfläche der dort angeordneten Elektroden ist mit einer dünnen Schicht überzogen, die als schwach isolierendes Material bezeichnet wird. Elektrische Ladungen sollen mit Hilfe dieser Schicht im Meßspalt verteilt und langsam abgebaut werden. Die Isolationswirkung beziehungsweise die elektrische Leitfähigkeit der Schicht soll so bemessen sein, daß sie auf keinen Fall als Ausdehnung der Elektrodenfläche wirkt, da dies zu einer Verfälschung des Meßergebnisses führen könnte. In der Druckschrift wird ausdrücklich darauf hingewiesen, daß die notwendige Funktion der Meßvorrichtung nicht mehr gegeben ist, wenn der elektrische Widerstand der Schicht zu niedrig ausfällt.Such a static charge should, for example, with a Yarn measuring device according to US Patent 3,377,852 avoided be whose block-shaped body made of insulating material consists. There are electrodes in on both sides of the measuring gap the block arranged so that it has a capacitor which is suitable for Yarn measuring purposes is suitable form. The surface in the measuring gap including the surface of the electrodes arranged there is covered with a thin layer that is considered weak insulating material is called. Electric charges should be distributed with the help of this layer in the measuring gap and be broken down slowly. The insulation effect respectively the electrical conductivity of the layer should be measured in this way be that in no case as an extension of the Electrode surface acts, as this leads to a falsification of the Could result in measurement. In the publication expressly noted that the necessary function the measuring device is no longer present when the electrical resistance of the layer is too low.

Die DE 39 29 895 A1 beschreibt einen Fadenbruchdetektor mit einem metallisierten Kunststoffgehäuse. An seiner Vorderseite ist das Gehäuse nicht metallisiert, so daß die Abschirmung unvollständig bleibt und von außen Störeinflüsse wirksam werden können. Mit dem Fadenbruchdetektor kann detektiert werden, ob ein Faden im Detektionsbereich vorhanden ist oder nicht. Höheren Ansprüchen an die Qualität von Messungen kann dieser Fadenbruchdetektor nicht genügen.DE 39 29 895 A1 describes a thread break detector a metallized plastic housing. At its front the housing is not metallized, so the shield remains incomplete and effective from outside can be. With the thread break detector can be detected whether there is a thread in the detection area or Not. Higher demands on the quality of measurements can this thread break detector is not enough.

Die gattungsbildende EP 0 401 600 A2 offenbart einen Meßkopf zur Messung beziehungsweise zur Überwachung von Parametern eines laufenden Garns, der ein aus Kunststoff gespritztes Gehäuse aufweist. Der Meßkopf vereint in sich ein optisches und ein kapazitives Meßorgan, die beide gemeinsam in dem Gehäuse angeordnet sind. Eine Trägerplatte mit den Bauteilen für die optische und kapazitive Messung ist in das Gehäuse eingesetzt und mit diesem verschraubt. Die Lichtquelle und der Lichtempfänger sind gegen den Meßspalt jeweils durch eine Scheibe abgedeckt. Die Kondensatorplatten für die kapazitive Messung sind als elektrisch leitfähige, lichtdurchlässige Schicht aus Metall auf die Scheiben aufgebracht oder in diese eingebettet.The generic EP 0 401 600 A2 discloses a measuring head for measuring or monitoring parameters of a running yarn that is injected from plastic Has housing. The measuring head combines an optical one and a capacitive measuring device, both of which are common in the Housing are arranged. A carrier plate with the components for optical and capacitive measurement is in the housing inserted and screwed to it. The light source and the Light receivers are against the measuring gap by a Disc covered. The capacitor plates for the capacitive Measurement are considered to be electrically conductive, translucent Layer of metal applied to or in the disks embedded.

Diese als Stand der Technik bekannten Garnsensoren vermögen jedoch nicht, eine Reihe unerwünschter Einflüsse zu beseitigen oder zu vermeiden. Bei Meßorganen oder Prozessoren, wie sie im Inneren von Garnsensoren beziehungsweise der Gehäuse angeordnet sind, entsteht zum Beispiel häufig Verlustwärme, die zu einem merklichen Anstieg der Gehäuseinnentemperatur führt. Erhöhte Temperaturen können zu einem unerwünschten und nachteiligen sogenannten Bauteildriften in den in das Gehäuse eingebauten elektrischen Komponenten führen. Magnetische beziehungsweise elektrische Felder, insbesondere Felder mit schwankender Feldstärke, die in der Umgebung des Garnsensors ihren Ursprung haben, können das Meßergebnis unerwünscht verfälschen. These yarn sensors known as prior art are capable but not to eliminate a number of undesirable influences or to avoid. In measuring organs or processors, as in Inside of yarn sensors or the housing for example, heat is often lost, which leads to a noticeable increase in the housing interior temperature leads. Elevated temperatures can become an undesirable and disadvantageous so-called component drifts in the in the housing installed electrical components. magnetic or electrical fields, in particular fields with fluctuating field strength in the area surrounding the yarn sensor the measurement result may be undesirable distort.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, die Eigenschaften bekannter Garnsensoren mit einem Gehäuse aus nicht leitendem Kunststoff zu verbessern.The invention has for its object the properties known yarn sensors with a housing made of non-conductive Improve plastic.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch einen Garnsensor mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 gelöst.This object is achieved by a yarn sensor solved the features of claim 1.

Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind Gegenstand der Unteransprüche.Advantageous embodiments of the invention are the subject of Dependent claims.

In einem erfindungsgemäß beschichteten Gehäuse sind die elektronischen Bauteile der Meßorgane, die Prozessoren und auch der Meßbereich im Meßspalt zufriedenstellend gegen den Einfluß elektrischer beziehungsweise magnetischer Felder abgeschirmt. Die Beschichtung des Gehäuses bildet dabei einen wirksamen Faraday-Käfig. Verfälschungen des Meßergebnisses durch fremde Felder werden vermieden. Da wenigstens ein Teil der Oberfläche im Meßspalt frei von der Beschichtung ist, können sich die der Messung dienenden Strahlen oder Feldlinien ungehindert vom aussendenden Meßorgan zum empfangenden Meßorgan ausbreiten. Eine Behinderung oder Verfälschung des Strahlenganges beziehungsweise des Feldlinienverlaufes durch die-Beschichtung, die zu falschen Meßergebnissen führen kann, wird so vermieden.In a housing coated according to the invention electronic components of the measuring organs, the processors and the measuring range in the measuring gap is also satisfactory against the Influence of electrical or magnetic fields shielded. The coating of the housing forms one effective Faraday cage. Falsification of the measurement result foreign fields are avoided. At least part of it the surface in the measuring gap is free of the coating, can be the rays or field lines used for the measurement unhindered from the sending measuring device to the receiving one Spread out measuring element. A hindrance or falsification of the Beam path or the field line course through the coating, which can lead to incorrect measurement results, is avoided.

Der Garnsensor ist so mit einem Wärmeleiter verbunden, daß Wärme über die metallische Beschichtung gut abführbar ist. Dies kann zum Beispiel durch eine möglichst große Berührungsfläche zwischen dem erfindungsgemäß beschichteten Garnsensor und einem am metallischen Maschinengestell befestigten Halteblech erfolgen. Auf diese Weise läßt sich ein hohes Wärmeabfuhrvermögen erzielen, womit einer Temperaturerhöhung entgegengewirkt werden kann. Die Beibehaltung einer hohen Meßgenauigkeit kann auf diese Weise gesichert werden.The yarn sensor is connected to a heat conductor so that Heat can be dissipated well via the metallic coating. For example, this can be as large as possible Contact surface between the coated according to the invention Yarn sensor and one on the metallic machine frame attached bracket. In this way, one can Achieve high heat dissipation, with which one Temperature increase can be counteracted. The Maintaining high measurement accuracy can be done in this way be secured.

Vorzugsweise ist nach Anspruch 3 mindestens ein Teil der Beschichtung mit Hilfe eines galvanischen Beschichtungsverfahrens aufgetragen worden. Ein galvanisches Beschichtungsverfahren liefert besonders gleichmäßige und vollständige, lückenlose Beschichtungen, die sich kostengünstig auf einer chemisch aufgebrachten Basisschicht herstellen lassen.Preferably, according to claim 3, at least part of the Coating with the help of a galvanic Coating process has been applied. A galvanic Coating process delivers particularly uniform and complete, gapless coatings that stand out inexpensively on a chemically applied base layer have it made.

Ausführliche Erläuterungen zu chemisch-galvanischen Beschichtungsverfahren sind beispielsweise der DE-OS 22 55 430 zu entnehmen. Die nicht leitende Oberfläche eines zu beschichtenden Körpers wird dabei einer Vorbereitungsbehandlung unterzogen. Die Vorbereitungsbehandlung kann aus einer mechanischen Mikroaufrauhung durch Sandstrahlen und einem Eintauchen in ein chemisches Behandlungsbad, das geeignet ist, an sich wasserabstoßende Oberflächen wasseranziehend zu machen, bestehen. Ein anschließend chemisch gebildeter metallischer Niederschlag kann die Basis für einen elektrolytischen Aufbau von einem oder mehreren aufgebrachten metallischen Schichten bilden. Die Dicke der Basisschicht sollte 5 mµ nicht überschreiten.Detailed explanations of chemical-galvanic Coating processes are, for example, DE-OS 22 55 430 refer to. The non-conductive surface of one too coating body becomes one Undergone preparatory treatment. The Preparatory treatment can consist of a mechanical Micro-roughening by sandblasting and immersion in one chemical treatment bath that is suitable in itself to make water-repellent surfaces water-absorbent, consist. A subsequently chemically formed metallic Precipitation can be the basis for an electrolytic build-up of one or more applied metallic layers form. The thickness of the base layer should not be 5 mµ exceed.

Gemäß Anspruch 4 weist die Beschichtung bevorzugt eine Kupferschicht mit einer darüber liegenden Deckschicht aus Nickel oder Chrom auf. Auf diese Weise wird die ausgezeichnete Wärmeleitfähigkeit und die hohe elektrische Leitfähigkeit des Kupfers mit vorteilhaft nutzbaren Eigenschaften von Nickel oder Chrom, wie Verschleißschutz oder magnetische Abschirmung, kombiniert.According to claim 4, the coating preferably has one Copper layer with an overlying top layer Nickel or chrome. This way, the excellent Thermal conductivity and the high electrical conductivity of the Copper with beneficial properties of nickel or chrome, like wear protection or magnetic shielding, combined.

Vorteilhaft beträgt die Dicke der Beschichtung nach Anspruch 5 zwischen 5 µm und 20 µm. Damit ist einerseits eine gut festhaftende Beschichtung bei relativ begrenzter Dauer des Beschichtungsvorgangs herstellbar, und andererseits ist eine erwünschte Wirkung beziehungsweise Funktion der Beschichtung in ausreichendem Maße erzielbar.The thickness of the coating according to claim 5 is advantageous between 5 µm and 20 µm. On the one hand, this is a good thing adherent coating with a relatively limited duration of Coating process can be produced, and on the other hand is a desired effect or function of the coating achievable to a sufficient extent.

Die Widerstandsfähigkeit der Oberfläche des Kunststoffgehäuses gegen mechanischen Angriff wie Abrieb beziehungsweise Kratzer kann durch die Beschichtung der Oberfläche erhöht werden.The resilience of the surface of the plastic case against mechanical attack such as abrasion or scratches can be increased by coating the surface.

Das Gehäuse kann aus mehreren Teilen bestehen, die zu einer Einheit zusammengefügt sind.The housing can consist of several parts that form one Unit are assembled.

Mit einem gemäß der Erfindung ausgebildeten Garnsensor lassen sich unerwünschte Beeinflussungen des Meßergebnisses wesentlich mindern oder ganz vermeiden. Diese Beeinflussungen können dadurch entstehen, daß Bauteile im Gehäuse des Garnsensors erhöhten Temperaturen oder magnetischen beziehungsweise elektrischen Feldern ausgesetzt sind. Dem sogenannten Bauteildriften wird entgegengewirkt. Von Bauteildriften wird beispielsweise gesprochen, wenn die Temperatur, dem das Meßorgan ausgesetzt ist, ansteigt und dadurch ein Fehler bei Meßwerten oder der Verarbeitung von Signalen auftritt und größer wird. Die im Gehäuse entstehende Verlustwärme von dort angeordneten elektrischen Komponenten kann mit dem erfindungsgemäßen Garnsensor in ausreichendem Maße abgeführt werden. Elektrostatische Aufladung wird mittels der erfindungsgemäßen Beschichtung ebenfalls abgeführt. Leave with a yarn sensor designed according to the invention there are undesirable influences on the measurement result significantly reduce or avoid entirely. These influences can arise from the fact that components in the housing of the Yarn sensor elevated temperature or magnetic or exposed to electrical fields. the so-called component drift is counteracted. Of Component drift is spoken, for example, when the Temperature to which the measuring element is exposed rises and thereby an error in measured values or the processing of Signals occurs and grows. The resulting in the housing Heat loss from electrical components arranged there can with the yarn sensor according to the invention in sufficient Dimensions are dissipated. Electrostatic charge is generated using the coating according to the invention also removed.

Die Qualität der Meßergebnisse, die Qualität der Garnüberwachung und damit die Qualität des Garns selbst wird angehoben. Neben einem verbesserten Verschleißschutz des Gehäuses eröffnet die erfindungsgemäße Beschichtung Gestaltungsmöglichkeiten für ein ansprechendes optisches Erscheinungsbild des Garnsensors, beispielsweise durch eine verchromte Oberfläche.The quality of the measurement results, the quality of the Yarn monitoring and thus the quality of the yarn itself raised.

Der Einsatz und die Anordnung von Garnsensoren an Textilmaschinen, wie Spinn- oder Spulmaschinen, ist an sich zum Beispiel aus den oben genannten Druckschriften bekannt und braucht daher hier nicht näher erläutert zu werden.The use and arrangement of yarn sensors Textile machines, such as spinning or winding machines, are in themselves known for example from the publications mentioned above and therefore need not be explained in more detail here.

Der in Figur 1 dargestellte Garnsensor 1 weist ein Gehäuse auf, das einen schachtelförmigen Grundkörper 2 mit abnehmbarer Abdeckung 3 umfaßt. Im Grundkörper 2 ist eine Meßeinrichtung 4 mit einem Meßspalt 5 angeordnet, durch den der Faden während der Messung in Längsrichtung hindurchläuft. Die Oberfläche des Meßspaltes 5 ist im Ausführungsbeispiel der Figur 1 nicht metallisch beschichtet. Sowohl der Grundkörper 2 wie auch die Abdeckung 3 weisen jeweils eine Ausnehmung 6, 7 auf, deren Lage auf den Meßspalt 5 abgestimmt ist.The yarn sensor 1 shown in Figure 1 has a housing on that a box-shaped base body 2 with removable Cover 3 includes. A measuring device 4 is located in the base body 2 arranged with a measuring gap 5 through which the thread during the measurement runs in the longitudinal direction. The surface of the Measuring gap 5 is not in the embodiment of Figure 1 metallic coated. Both the base body 2 and the Cover 3 each have a recess 6, 7, the Position is matched to the measuring gap 5.

Die Meßeinrichtung 4 arbeitet mit einer Lichtquelle 8 und einem optischen Sensor 9, die jeweils über die Leitung 10 und die Leitung 11 mit dem Prozessor 12 verbunden sind. Der Prozessor 12 ist am Boden des Grundkörpers 2 befestigt und als sogenannter ASIC ausgebildet. Nach dem Zusammenfügen von Grundkörper 2 und Abdeckung 3 befindet sich der Prozessor 12 in dem so gebildeten Hohlraum im Inneren des geschlossenen Garnsensors 1. In einer alternativen Ausführung des Garnsensors 1 kann auch mehr als ein Prozessor zur Signal- und Datenverarbeitung im Gehäuse angeordnet sein.The measuring device 4 works with a light source 8 and an optical sensor 9, each via line 10 and the line 11 are connected to the processor 12. The Processor 12 is attached to the bottom of the base body 2 and as so-called ASIC trained. After merging The main body 2 and cover 3 are the processor 12 in the cavity thus formed inside the closed Yarn sensor 1. In an alternative embodiment of the Yarn sensor 1 can also have more than one processor for signal and Data processing can be arranged in the housing.

Der Prozessor 12 ist über die Leitung 13 mit der aus Vereinfachungsgründen nicht dargestellten zentralen Steuerung der Textilmaschine verbunden. Dabei dient die Leitung 13 neben der Übertragung von Signalen sowie Daten zusätzlich der Energieversorgung. Die Oberfläche des Grundkörpers 2 und der Abdeckung 3 ist metallisch beschichtet. Die Beschichtung bedeckt sowohl die äußere wie auch die innere dem Hohlraum zugewandte Oberfläche des Gehäuses. Die beschichteten Oberflächen sind sowohl in Figur 1 als auch in Figur 2 als schraffierte Flächen dargestellt.The processor 12 is connected via line 13 to the Central control not shown for reasons of simplification connected to the textile machine. The line 13 serves next to the transmission of signals and data additionally the Power supply. The surface of the base body 2 and the Cover 3 is coated with metal. The coating covers both the outer and the inner of the cavity facing surface of the housing. The coated Surfaces are shown in both Figure 1 and Figure 2 hatched areas.

Der Grundkörper ist an dem Halteblech 14 befestigt, wobei die beschichtete Oberfläche direkt an der Oberfläche des Halteblechs 14 aufliegt. Das Halteblech 14 wirkt als Wärmeleiter. The base body is attached to the holding plate 14, the coated surface directly on the surface of the Retaining plate 14 rests. The holding plate 14 acts as Heat conductor.

Figur 2 zeigt als alternative Ausführung einen Garnsensor 25 mit einem Gehäuse, dessen Grundkörper 15 einstückig ausgebildet ist. Der Garnkörper 15 weist einen Meßspalt 16 auf, durch den der Faden 17 hindurchläuft. Die Oberfläche des Grundkörpers 15 ist weitestgehend metallisch beschichtet. Lediglich im Meßbereich 18 des Meßspaltes 16 ist die Oberfläche nicht beschichtet. Damit soll eine unerwünschte Beeinflussung des Meßergebnisses, insbesondere bei kapazitiver Messung, vermieden werden. Der Grundkörper 15 des Gehäuses ist über das Halteblech 19 mit dem aus Vereinfachungsgründen nicht dargestellten Rahmen der Textilmaschine verbunden. Der Datensowie der Signaltransport zwischen dem Garnsensor 25 und der zentralen Steuerung der Textilmaschine erfolgt über die Leitung 20. Die beschichtete Oberfläche des Grundkörpers 15 liegt flächig am Halteblech 19 an.Figure 2 shows an alternative embodiment of a yarn sensor 25 with a housing, the base body 15 in one piece is trained. The package 15 has a measuring gap 16 through which the thread 17 passes. The surface of the Base body 15 is largely coated with metal. Only in the measuring area 18 of the measuring gap 16 is the Surface not coated. This is said to be an undesirable Influencing the measurement result, especially with capacitive Measurement, be avoided. The base body 15 of the housing is over the retaining plate 19 with the for simplicity's sake shown frame of the textile machine connected. The data as well the signal transport between the yarn sensor 25 and the Central control of the textile machine takes place via the Line 20. The coated surface of the base body 15 lies flat against the holding plate 19.

Die in Figur 3 dargestellte Beschichtung 21 besteht aus drei Schichten 22, 23, 24, die auf den Grundkörper 2 des Gehäuses aufgebracht worden sind. Die in einem chemischen Verfahren aufgebrachte Basisschicht 22 ist eine Nickelschicht mit einer Dicke zwischen 0,5 µm und 1 µm. Darüber ist eine Kupferschicht 23 mittels eines galvanischen Verfahrens auf elektrolytischem Wege aufgebracht. Eine Deckschicht 24 aus Nickel ist ebenfalls elektrolytisch aufgetragen. Die Dicke der Kupferschicht 23 beträgt etwa 50 Prozent der gesamten Beschichtung.The coating 21 shown in Figure 3 consists of three Layers 22, 23, 24 on the base body 2 of the housing have been applied. The one in a chemical process applied base layer 22 is a nickel layer with a Thickness between 0.5 µm and 1 µm. About that is one Copper layer 23 by means of a galvanic process applied electrolytically. A cover layer 24 Nickel is also applied electrolytically. The thickness of the Copper layer 23 is about 50 percent of the total Coating.

Nähere Angaben zu Beschichtungsverfahren sind zum Beispiel der DE-OS 22 55 430 entnehmbar. Further information on coating processes is, for example, the DE-OS 22 55 430 removable.

Die Beschichtung von Grundkörper 2 und Abdeckung 3 des Garnsensors der Figur 1 oder des einstückigen Grundkörpers 15 des Garnsensors der Figur 2 stellt eine wirksame Abschirmung gegen fremde elektrische beziehungsweise magnetische Felder dar und verhindert eine Verfälschung der Meßergebnisse durch solche Felder.The coating of base body 2 and cover 3 of the Yarn sensor of Figure 1 or the one-piece base body 15th the yarn sensor of Figure 2 provides an effective shield against external electrical or magnetic fields and prevents the measurement results from being falsified by such fields.

Im Garnsensor frei werdende Verlustwärme, zum Beispiel von der Lichtquelle oder von anderen elektrischen Komponenten, wie Prozessoren 12, wird über die metallische Beschichtung 21 an das Halteblech 14, 19 beziehungsweise den Maschinenrahmen und an die umgebende Atmosphäre abgeführt.Loss of heat released in the yarn sensor, for example from Light source or other electrical components, such as Processors 12, the metallic coating 21 on the holding plate 14, 19 or the machine frame and dissipated to the surrounding atmosphere.

Die Deckschicht 24 aus Nickel bietet einen gegenüber der Kunststoffoberfläche wesentlich verbesserten Schutz gegen Verschleiß. Auch im Vergleich zu einer Oberfläche, die aus Kupfer besteht, bietet Nickel einen besseren Verschleißschutz. Anstelle einer Deckschicht aus Nickel als Außenoberfläche kann alternativ eine Deckschicht aus Chrom aufgebracht sein.The cover layer 24 made of nickel offers one compared to the Plastic surface significantly improved protection against Wear. Even compared to a surface that is made of Copper, nickel offers better wear protection. Instead of a cover layer made of nickel as the outer surface alternatively, a top layer made of chrome can be applied.

Weitere alternative Ausführungen eines erfindungsgemäßen Garnsensors sind möglich. Insbesondere die Form des Gehäuses eines Garnsensors kann variieren. Das zu beschichtende Gehäuse kann zum Beispiel eine Form aufweisen wie das in der EP 0 945 533 A1 gezeigte Gehäuse, wobei der EP 0 945 533 A1 aber keine erfindungsgemäße Beschichtung zu entnehmen ist.Further alternative designs of an inventive Yarn sensors are possible. In particular the shape of the housing a yarn sensor can vary.
