Title:
PHOTOELECTRIC SWITCH
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2017072522
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a photoelectric switch that can correctly detect even such a workpiece that changes color among manufacturing lots while suppressing wrong detection.SOLUTION: A photoelectric switch comprises: matching degree calculation means that compares acquired color information with color information on a reference color to calculate a matching degree; detection signal generation means that compares the calculated matching degree with a predetermined detection determination threshold to conduct a workpiece determination; and reference color specification means that specifies a start reference color, additional reference color and interpolation reference color on the basis of a take-in instruction. The reference color specification means is configured to: specify color information acquired on the basis of a first take-in instruction as color information on the start reference color; specify color information acquired on the basis of a second take-in instruction as color information on the additional color reference color; and specify the interpolation reference color based on the start reference color and additional reference color. The detection signal generation means compares the highest matching degree out of a matching degree relative to the start reference color, a matching degree relative to the interpolation reference color, and a matching degree relative to the additional reference color with the detection determination threshold to conduct a workpiece determination.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 4
