Abstract

The unit has a battery-operated transmitter to transmit an acoustic signal. The transmitter has a sensor (1), that can move up to a stop (5). A slip contact (2) of the sensor connects to an inner lying battery (6), through current lines designed as a sensor control, and are connected to two electrodes (4) applied in the sensor. The filling level signal unit consists of a transmitter and a receiver and produces a radio signal transmission.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Füllstandssignalisator für die Überwachung von in einem Behältnis befindlichen flüssigen, leitfähigen Stoffen, vorzugsweise Wasser in Badewannen, der aus einem batteriebetriebenen Sender und örtlich entferntem Empfänger besteht und bei Erreichen des gewünschten Füllstandes ein akustisches Signal abgibt.The invention relates to a level indicator for monitoring in a container of liquid, conductive substances, preferably Water in bathtubs that comes from a battery powered transmitter and locally remote recipient exists and when the desired one is reached Emits an acoustic signal.

Es sind eine Reihe von derartigen Warngeräten bekannt, die einem ähnlichen Zweck dienen, teilweise mit Netzspannung arbeiten oder auch batterie­ betrieben sind und das Erreichen des gewünschten Füllstandes durch ein akustisches Signal melden. Dabei arbeiten alle bekannten Geräte mit feststehenden Sensoren, die auch bei Nichtgebrauch aus dem Sendegerät herausragen und aufgrund ihrer Empfindlichkeit zusätzlich gegen Beschädigung geschützt werden müssen.A number of such warning devices are known which are similar Serve purpose, partly work with mains voltage or battery are operated and reaching the desired level by report acoustic signal. All known devices work with it fixed sensors, even when not in use from the transmitter stand out and due to their sensitivity to Damage must be protected.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, den Empfänger so zu gestalten, daß der Sensor nur im Gebrauchszustand außerhalb des Gehäuses frei liegt.The object of the invention is to design the receiver so that the sensor is only exposed outside of the housing when in use.

Erfindungsgemäß wird die Aufgabe dadurch gelöst, daß der bis zu einem Anschlagverschiebbare Sensor des Senders Schleifkontakte aufweist, die zum einen mit an die Batterie angeschlossenen, innenliegend, als Sensorführung ausgebildeten Stromleitungen aufweist und zum anderen mit den im Sensor vorgesehenen Elektroden leitend verbunden sind. Der als Sender ausge­ bildete Füllstandssignalisator verfügt zudem über einen Empfänger, der eine Signalübertragung über Funk ermöglicht.According to the invention the object is achieved in that up to one Stop-sliding sensor of the transmitter has sliding contacts, which for one connected to the battery, inside, as a sensor guide trained power lines and on the other hand with those in the sensor provided electrodes are conductively connected. The out as a transmitter level indicator also has a receiver that a Radio signal transmission enabled.

Die Erfindung ist variabel dort einsetzbar, wo zum Beispiel u. a. Fässer, Teiche, Schwimmbecken zu füllen sind. The invention can be used variably where, for example, u. a. Barrels, Ponds to fill swimming pools.  

Der Vorteil der erfindungsgemäßen Lösung besteht darin, daß im Falle des Nichtgebrauchs des Füllstandssignalisators der empfindliche Sensor sich vollkommen geschützt im Gehäuse befindet und nur bei Gebrauch zur Erfüllung seiner Funktion frei liegt.The advantage of the solution according to the invention is that in the case of The sensitive sensor does not use the level indicator completely protected in the housing and only for use Performing its function is free.

Die Erfindung soll an einem Ausführungsbeispiel näher erläutert werden. Die Zeichnung zeigt Innen- und Außenansicht des Senders.The invention will be explained in more detail using an exemplary embodiment. The drawing shows the inside and outside view of the transmitter.

Der Füllstandssignalisator soll grundsätzlich einen gewünschten und letztlich erreichten oder einen aus anderen Gründen zustande gekommenen Füll- oder Flüssigkeitsstand signalisieren. Dadurch wird dieser zu einem sinnvollen und bedeutenden "Warnsystem", das in vielen Fällen vor Flüssigkeitsüberlauf oder Wasserein -ausbruch rechtzeitig und sicher warnt. Der Flüssigkeits­ signalisator besteht aus einem batteriebetriebenen Sender, der mit 433 MHz und einem örtlich entfernten, ebenfalls batteriebetriebenen Empfänger arbeitet.The level indicator should basically be a desired and ultimately reached or a filling or for other reasons Signal liquid level. This makes it a meaningful and significant "warning system" that in many cases prevents fluid overflow or outbreak of water warns in good time and safely. The liquid signalizer consists of a battery powered transmitter operating at 433 MHz and a locally remote, also battery powered receiver is working.

Der in der Zeichnung dargestellte Sender enthält einen verschiebbaren angeordneten Sensor 1, der über Schleifkontakte 2 zum einen mit Strom­ leitungen 3, die an der Batterie 6 angeschlossen sind und gleichermaßen als Sensorführung dienen. Zum anderen sind die Schleifkontakte 2 mit zwei im Sensor angeordneten Elektroden 4 leitend verbunden.The transmitter shown in the drawing contains a slidably arranged sensor 1 , the sliding contacts 2 on the one hand with power lines 3 , which are connected to the battery 6 and also serve as a sensor guide. On the other hand, the sliding contacts 2 are conductively connected to two electrodes 4 arranged in the sensor.

Ein Anschlag 5 begrenzt die Bewegung des Sensors. Bei Nichtgebrauch wird der Sensor in den Innenraum des Senders geschoben und somit vor Beschädigungen gesichert. A stop 5 limits the movement of the sensor. When not in use, the sensor is pushed into the interior of the transmitter and thus protected from damage.
