Abstract

In a process aimed at monitoring and controlling a wing door with radar sensors, while the radar sensors send signals and receive response signals, the response signals shall be transmitted to a central control unit, which incoming response signals (5.1, 6.1, 7.1) of the sensors (2, 3, 4) shall be processed in the control unit (9), while the wing door (1) shall be controlled by the control unit (9).

Claims

1. A process, by which a device with sensors (2, 3, 4) aimed at opening and shutting openings (1) is monitored and controlled, wherein the sensors (2, 3, 4) send signals (5, 6, 7) and receive response signals (5.1, 6.1, 7.1),

characterized in that

the response signals (5.1, 6.1, 7.1) are transmitted to a central control unit (9),

the incoming response signals (5.1, 6.1, 7.1) of the sensors (2, 3, 4) are processed in the control unit (9),

by which control unit (9) the device aimed at shutting openings (1) is controlled.

2. A process in accordance with claim 1, characterized in that, on the basis of the response signals (5.1, 6.1, 7.1), a distinction is made in the control unit (9) between moving and stationary objects (8).

3. A process in accordance with claim 2, characterized in that, on the basis of the response signals (5.1, 6.1, 7.1), a distinction is made in the control unit (9) between objects (8) and persons.

4. A process in accordance with claim 2, characterized in that, in the control unit (9), the response signals (5.1, 6.1, 7.1) of various sensors (2, 3, 4) are combined and processed.

5. A device aimed at completing a process in accordance with claim 1, characterized in that at least two sensors (2, 3, 4) are present, which monitor at least one device aimed at opening and shutting openings (1), characterized in that a control unit (9) controls the device aimed at shutting openings (1).

6. A device in accordance with claim 5, characterized in that the control unit (9) is present independently of the sensors (2, 3, 4).

7. A device in accordance with claim 5, characterized in that the sensors (2, 3, 4) send signals (5, 6, 7) and receive response signals (5.1, 6.1, 7.1).

8. A device in accordance with claim 5, characterized in that the transmission of the response signals (5.1, 6.1, 7.1) from the sensors (2, 3, 4) takes place via cable or a wireless connection.

9. A device in accordance with claim 5, characterized in that the sensors (2, 3, 4) are radar sensors and/or ultrasonic sensors and/or CCD sensors.

10. A device in accordance with claim 5, characterized in that the control unit (9) is deployable independently of the sensors (2, 3, 4).
