Publication number: 20240145187Abstract: To realize both toughness and size reduction of a safety switch. A safety switch is a safety switch into and from which a bolt of an actuator is inserted and pulled out. The safety switch includes a casing having a shape elongated along a first direction, a metal head having a receiving space for receiving the bolt of the actuator and provided on a first end side of the casing in the first direction, a detector for detecting a first state in which the bolt is received in the receiving space, a lock mechanism, a switching device and a first attachment portion provided in the head and having a first attachment hole into which a first attachment member is inserted.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 9, 2024Publication date: May 2, 2024Applicant: Keyence CorporationInventors: Choryon Oh, Yu Babasaki, Lye Tatt Cheah

Patent number: 10948892Abstract: To monitor individual safety components or to supply individual operation instructions to corresponding safety components. A connector includes a component-side terminal group used for connection to a corresponding safety component, a downstream-side terminal group used for connection to the downstream side and an upstream-side terminal group used for connection to the upstream side. The downstream-side terminal group includes a downstream-side main information terminal connected to the component-side main information terminal and a downstream-side other terminal different from the downstream-side main information terminal. The upstream-side terminal group includes an upstream-side information terminal capable of being connected to a downstream-side main information terminal of a connector member on the upstream side.Type: GrantFiled: March 14, 2019Date of Patent: March 16, 2021Assignee: KEYENCE CORPORATIONInventors: Yu Babasaki, Shinya Kameoka
