Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine optische Fernsteuerungsvorrichtung für eine Wohnungstür.The invention relates to an optical remote control device for an apartment door.
Es sind bereits Fernsteuerungsvorrichtungen bekannt, die aus einem tragbaren Sender und einem mit dem zu steuernden Objekt verbundenen Empfänger bestehen. Die Steuerung kann durch Infrarotstrahlen geschehen, wobei von dem Sender ein Signal ausgeht, das von dem Empfänger aufgenommen werden muß, um eine Funktion auszulösen, beispielsweise eine Entriegelung.Remote control devices are already known which consist of a portable transmitter and a receiver connected to the object to be controlled. The control can take place by means of infrared rays, the transmitter emitting a signal which must be received by the receiver in order to trigger a function, for example an unlocking.
Im Falle einer Wohnungstür ist der Empfänger von außen zugänglich und daher verwundbar. Außerdem muß in der Tür eine öffnung zur Aufnahme des Empfängers vorgesehen werden.In the case of an apartment door, the recipient is accessible from the outside and therefore vulnerable. In addition, an opening for receiving the receiver must be provided in the door.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, diese Nachteile bekannter Vorrichtungen zu beseitigen.The invention has for its object to eliminate these disadvantages of known devices.
Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe durch eine Vorrichtung gelöst, bestehend aus einem Schauglas in der Tür, einem hinter dem Schauglas geneigt angeordneten halbdurchlässigen Spiegel, dessen halbreflektierende Seite dem Schauglas zugewandt ist, und einem optischen Empfänger, der auf der Reflexionsachse des Spiegels angeordnet ist.According to the invention, this object is achieved by a device consisting of a sight glass in the door, a semitransparent mirror arranged inclined behind the sight glass, the semi-reflecting side of which faces the sight glass, and an optical receiver which is arranged on the reflection axis of the mirror.
Bei der Vorrichtung gemäß der Erfindung ist also der Empfänger von außen unsichtbar und unzugänglich. Ferner ist außer dem Schauloch keine öffnung in der Tür erforderlich.In the device according to the invention, the receiver is therefore invisible and inaccessible from the outside. Furthermore, no opening in the door is required apart from the inspection hole.
An Hand der Zeichnung wird die Erfindung näher erläutert. Die einzige Figur zeigt eine Schnittansicht eines Teils einer Tür, die mit einer Vorrichtung gemäß einem Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung ausgerüstet ist.The invention is explained in more detail with reference to the drawing. The single figure shows a sectional view of part of a door which is equipped with a device according to an embodiment of the invention.
Die Tür 1 weist eine Bohrung 2 auf, in der in bekannter Weise ein Schauglas 3 eingesetzt ist. An der Innenseite 4 der Tür 1 ist ein halbdurchlässiger Spiegel 5 angeordnet, der unter einem Winkel von 45° geneigt ist und dessen halbreflektierende Fläche 6 der Rückseite des Schauglases 3 zugewandt ist. In der Reflexionsachse des Spiegels 5 ist ein optischer Empfänger 7 angeordnet. Der Spiegel 5, der Empfänger 7 und die Steuerungsvorrichtung (nicht dargestellt) sind in einem Gehäuse 8 eingeschlossen, das an der Rückseite 4 der Tür 1 angebracht ist.The
Im Innern empfängt das Auge 9 des Beobachters einen Teil R1 der Lichtstrahlen, die von außen kommen und durch das Schauglas 3 und den Spiegel 5 hindurchgehen. Er sieht so normal in bekannter Weise einen draußen befindlichen Besucher. Der Besucher bemerkt nur den äußeren Teil 3' des Schauglases 3.Inside the
Wenn ein (nicht dargestellter) optischer Sender hinter der Tür genau in der Achse des Schauglases 3 betätigt wird, so wird der ausgesendete Strahl R, beispielsweise ein Infrarotstrahl, von der Fläche 6 des Spiegels 5 teilweise als Strahl R2 reflektiert und gelangt zu dem Empfänger 7. Die von dem Strahl R übertragenen Informationen, z. B. ein Code, werden von dem Empfänger 7 aufgenommen, der sie an die Steuerungsvorrichtung weiterleiten kann.If an optical transmitter (not shown) behind the door is actuated exactly in the axis of the
Bei einer (nicht dargestellten) anderen Ausführungsform besteht das Schauglas aus zwei Linsen, zweckmäßigerweise eine auf jeder Seite der Tür. In diesem Fall ist es vorteilhaft, den Spiegel zwischen den beiden Linsen und den Empfänger in der Wand des Schauloches anzuordnen. Die Vorrichtung ist dann völlig im Innern der Tür eingeschlossen Der Platzbedarf für das Schauloch wird dadurch kaum erhöht.In another embodiment (not shown), the sight glass consists of two lenses, advantageously one on each side of the door. In this case, it is advantageous to arrange the mirror between the two lenses and the receiver in the wall of the inspection hole. The device is then completely enclosed inside the door, which hardly increases the space required for the inspection hole.
