Abstract: An optoelectronic sensing device detects two contrasting marks arranged next to each other along two reading tracks on a moving web. An optical head is arranged above each reading track. Each head has a lighting source and a lens, by means of which the contrast marks are imaged on an associated light receiver. Information from the contrast mark is obtained from the output signal of the light receiver. An adjustable connector joins two substantially identical optical heads to each other so that their respective lenses are arranged asymmetrically in the associated optical head and are situated in immediate proximity to each other, which permits adjustment of the device for the smallest possible track spacings.

Abstract: An opto-electronic sensor for recognizing transparent articles, such as, for example, glass bodies, plastic bodies, or foils. The sensor includes at least one transmitter for transmitting light signals into a monitored region, at least one receiver for receiving the transmitted light signals, and at least one evaluation unit for the evaluation of the received signals. The transmitter is designed for the transmission of the light signals in the UV range. At least one reference transmitter is provided for the transmission of light signals into the monitored region. The light signals transmitted by the reference transmitter lie in a different frequency range from the light signals transmitted by the transmitter.
