Filed: 2006-03-24
Abstract: A belt tension sensor (10/10') includes an armature (22) that is displaced in relation to belt tension and an optical sensing mechanism that detects armature displacement as a measure of belt tension. In a first mechanization, a lens element (38) is mounted on the armature (22) for movement therewith, and light emitted by a light source (34) passes through the lens element (38) before impinging on a light responsive element (36); the lens element (38) variably diffuses the emitted light in relation to the belt tension, and the light impinging on the light responsive element (36) provides a measure of the belt tension. In a second mechanization, the armature (22) includes a protuberance (52) that abuts and variably collapses a compressible optical waveguide (50) to vary its optical transmissivity in relation to the armature displacement, and the optical transmissivity of the optical waveguide (50) provides a measure of the belt tension.

Abstract: An RFID transceiver unit (10) for detecting an RFID transponder said transceiver unit comprises a transmitter associated with a loop-shaped transmitting antenna (12) for transmitting an electromagnetic excitation field and a receiver associated with a loop-shaped receiving antenna (14). When the RFID transponder (18) is excited by the excitation field (24), the RFID transponder emits an electromagnetic response field, which induces a transponder signal in the receiving antenna. The received signal generated by the receiving antenna in response to an electromagnetic field thus contains the transponder signal. The received signal of the receiving antenna generally contains an interfering signal directly induced by the excitation field in the receiving antenna. The transceiver unit comprises means for attenuating the interfering signal in the received signal.
