Publication number: 20240058495Abstract: In a system (1) comprising a radiation body (10), a radiation source (20) configured to emit radiation (21) at least comprising UV radiation, a detector (30) configured to detect an internal radiation intensity in the radiation body (10), and a controller arrangement (40), the controller arrangement (40) is configured to apply a safety algorithm after occurrence of a disturbance incident caused by an object (2) contacting a radiation exit window (11) of the radiation body (10). The safety algorithm involves setting an evaluation state of the radiation source (20) during evaluation periods separated by evaluation intervals while otherwise setting an adapted state of the radiation source (20), and determining a value of the internal radiation intensity during the evaluation periods in order to assess whether it is safe to restore the normal state of the radiation source (20).Type: ApplicationFiled: December 30, 2021Publication date: February 22, 2024Inventors: Roelant Boudewijn Hietbrink, Bart Andre Salters, Eduard Matheus Johannes Niessen, Peter Martens

Publication number: 20240058489Abstract: In a system (1) comprising a radiation body (10), a radiation arrangement (20), a detector arrangement (30) and a controller arrangement (40), the controller arrangement (40) is configured to put a UV radiation source (21) of the radiation arrangement (20) from a default state to a state of reduced radiation intensity when detection results demonstrate occurrence of a disturbance incident that is indicative of touch on a radiation exit window (11) of the radiation body (10). In particular, at least one radiation source (21) of the radiation arrangement (20) is configured to emit polarized radiation (22), and the detector arrangement (30) is configured to detect at least one of intensity of polarized radiation of the source polarization orientation and intensity of polarized radiation of orthogonal polarization orientation, wherein a change of the at least one of those intensities is taken as an indication of occurrence of a disturbance incident.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 30, 2021Publication date: February 22, 2024Inventors: Roelant Boudewijn Hietbrink, Bart Andre Salters, Eduard Matheus Johannes Niessen, Peter Martens

Publication number: 20240050611Abstract: A system (1) comprises a radiation body (10), a radiation arrangement (20) configured to provide radiation at least comprising UV radiation (23) to the radiation body (10), a detector arrangement (30) configured to detect an internal radiation intensity of radiation (25) in the radiation body (10) at at least one detector position, and a controller arrangement (40) configured to control the radiation arrangement (20) in dependence on input from the detector arrangement (30). When the input from the detector arrangement (30) indicates a change of the internal radiation intensity that can be assumed to follow from an event of touch on a radiation exit window (11) of the radiation body (10), an action of temporarily changing a state of at least one UV radiation source (21) of the radiation arrangement (20) from a maintenance state to a disinfecting state of increased intensity of the UV radiation (23) is performed.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 30, 2021Publication date: February 15, 2024Inventors: Roelant Boudewijn Hietbrink, Bart Andre Salters, Eduard Matheus Johannes Niessen, Peter Martens

Patent number: 6657138Abstract: An electronic weighing sensor (10) having a digital signal processing unit (19), which includes at least one filter (12) with low-pass characteristic. By means of the filter (12), the direct-current component (m) is determined from the output signal of the weighing sensor and the weighing result is derived therefrom. A signal, which is dependent on the amplitude of the vibrations, is determined by the digital signal processing unit (19) and electronic components (18) change the direct-current component (m) as a function of the magnitude of the vibration-dependent signal. This significantly improves the performance of the weighing sensor (10) with respect to shocks and vibrations in the installation site of the weighing sensor (10).Type: GrantFiled: May 21, 2001Date of Patent: December 2, 2003Assignee: Sartorius AGInventors: Alfred Klauer, Joerg Peter Martens
