Door sensor and door equipped with such door sensor
First Claim
1. A door sensor characterized in that it is equipped with at least one door position detecting means which is attached to at least one door body that can be opened and/or closed and which is capable of detecting at least one position occupied by the at least one door body during opening and/or closing thereof, at least one object detecting means which is attached to the at least one door body and which detects presence and/or absence of at least one object in at least one detectable zone;
- and at least one object determining means which receives at least one output from the at least one door position detecting means and the at least one object detecting means, and which determines, in correspondence to at least one position occupied by the at least one door body during opening and/or closing thereof, whether at least one object detected by the at least one object detecting means is at least one object intended for detection.

Abstract
Door sensor(s) 6, 7 may be attached to door body or bodies 3 of automatic swing doors. Door sensor(s) 6, 7 may be equipped with door position detecting means 67, 77 comprising geomagnetic sensor(s); sensor(s) 6, 7 being itself or themselves capable of detecting position(s) occupied by door body or bodies 3 during opening and/or closing thereof. During opening and/or closing of door body or bodies 3, determination may be made as to whether detected object(s) are object(s) intended for detection; and in the event that object(s) are object(s) intended for detection, opening and/or closing of door body or bodies 3 may be stopped, slowed, and/or reversed in correspondence to detected position(s) occupied by door body or bodies 3 during opening and/or closing thereof.
