Abstract
A connection system for the preferably contactless transmission of data and power supply signals between a sensor means and a base unit in a measuring and transmission system comprises a sensor-side and a base-side connection element. An input unit is provided on at least one of the connection elements for inputting sensor-relevant commands.
Claims12
Connection system, in particular a plug-in connection system for the transmission of data and power supply signals between a sensor means (2) and a base unit in a measuring and transmission system, comprising
- a sensor-side connection element (1) with
- a power signal receiver (12),
- a data modulator/demodulator unit (13) which can be coupled at least indirectly, for the purposes of signalling, to at least one measuring sensor (8, 9) of the sensor means, as well as
- a first coupling partner element (14) for the preferably contactless transmission of data and power supply signals via a coupling path (15),
- a base-side connection element (4) with
- a second coupling partner element (16) of the coupling path (15),
- a power signal transmitter (17),
- a data modulator/demodulator unit (18),
- a data interface (20) which can be connected to the base unit with respect to data, as well as
- a primary power supply (21),
- a microprocessor-assisted control and memory unit (19) in at least one of the connection elements (1, 4), and
- an input unit (32) on at least one of the connection elements (4) for inputting sensor-relevant commands.
