本発明に係る磁気検出装置1の一実施形態について、図面を参照して説明する。磁気検出装置1は、磁性体90の位置、及び、磁性体90の磁気モーメントの大きさを推定可能な装置である。図1に示すように、磁気検出装置1は、センサ部2、及び、制御部3を備える。制御部3は水平方向に延びる略直方体形状である。センサ部2は、制御部3上面から上方に延びる略直方体形状である。センサ部2は、複数の表示部6を備える。複数の表示部6は、点灯または点滅可能であり、センサ部2の表面に上下方向に並んで設けてある。磁気検出装置1は、ネットワーク99を介して、ディスプレイ21を備える汎用のパーソナルコンピュータ(PC)20、点灯または点滅可能な警告灯30、監視カメラ40等と通信可能である。
図2に示すように、センサ部2は、磁気センサP(1)、P(2)・・・P(n)(nは自然数)(総称して「磁気センサP」という。)、及び、磁気センサQ(1)、Q(2)・・・Q(n)(総称して「磁気センサQ」という。)を備える。磁気センサP、Qは、例えば、アモルファス磁性ワイヤの磁気インピーダンス効果(Magneto-Impedance element MI効果)を利用した周知のMIセンサである。
磁気検出装置1において、磁気センサP(1)、P(2)・・・P(n)、及び、磁気センサQ(1)、Q(2)・・・Q(n)から対象センサ及び補償センサが選定される。対象センサは、磁性体90からの距離が最も短い磁気センサである。補償センサは、対象センサからX方向に距離Δ離れた磁気センサである。磁気検出装置1は、対象センサ及び補償センサを用いて、磁性体90の位置、及び、磁性体90の磁気モーメントの大きさを推定する。以下説明では、対象センサを磁気センサP(j)とし、補償センサを磁気センサQ(j)とする。
磁性体90は、所定の姿勢でX方向に移動する。磁性体90は、Y方向を軸に回転角θ、及び、Z方向を軸に回転角φで傾斜する。回転角θ、φで傾斜した姿勢を姿勢角という。本実施形態において、図4に示すように、磁性体90の磁気モーメントの姿勢角は、磁性体90の姿勢角と略等しいとする。磁気モーメントベクトルを、m´と表記する。磁気モーメントベクトルm´のXY平面に投影した成分(以下、「磁気モーメントXY成分」という。)を、m1´と表記する。磁気モーメントベクトルm´のXZ平面に投影した成分(以下、「磁気モーメントXZ成分」という。)を、m2´と表記する。
磁性体90の位置の推定方法について説明する。磁性体90が持つ磁気モーメントが作る三次元空間の磁場分布は、式(1)で示される。なお、磁性体90が持つ磁気モーメントが作る磁束密度ベクトルを、Bと表記する。磁性体90が持つ磁気モーメントからの距離ベクトルを、r´と表記する。距離ベクトルr´の大きさ(以下、「磁性体90が持つ磁気モーメントからの距離」という。)を、rと表記する。
距離Δを決定する為の方法を三つ例示する。第一の方法は次の通りである。磁界のX方向の成分を測定可能な磁気センサがX方向に二つ並べられる。このときの、二つの磁気センサのX方向の間隔を距離Δの大きさとする。磁性体90が二つの磁気センサのうち一方の磁気センサに対する最近接位置にあるとき、一方の磁気センサの測定値はBX0を示す。このとき、磁性体90は、二つの磁気センサのうち他方の磁気センサに対して所定位置にある。他方の磁気センサの測定値はBXΔである。よって、式(7)等により、距離zを推定できる。
磁気モーメントベクトルm´の大きさの推定方法について説明する。以下、磁気モーメントベクトルm´の大きさを、単に磁気モーメントの大きさという。姿勢角がθ=90度、φ=0度である場合、式(1)により、磁気モーメントベクトルm´と距離ベクトルr´とがなす角が90度であるので、磁束密度ベクトルBは、式(8)で示される。
式(8)において、θ=90度、φ=0度としているが、磁性体90の磁気モーメントの姿勢角はこれに限定されない。磁気モーメントの姿勢角の推定方法について説明する。磁性体90が最近接位置にあるとき、姿勢角の成分である回転角θは、式(4)(5)より、式(9)で示される。

磁性体90の磁気モーメントの大きさの推定方法について説明する。磁気モーメントの大きさを、mと表記する。磁気モーメントの大きさmは、磁気モーメントXY成分の大きさm1と磁気モーメントXZ成分の大きさm2とを合成した値である。磁気モーメントの大きさmは、式(27)で示される。
図5を参照し、メイン処理について説明する。メイン処理は、磁性体90の位置、及び、磁性体90の磁気モーメントの大きさの推定を開始するための指示が磁気検出装置1に入力された場合、記憶装置14に記憶されたプログラムをCPU11が実行することによって開始される。
