Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2009090097A2] A safety system (1) for safeguarding a moving, guided motion element (4) against unwanted collisions with an object lying on a motion path in the direction of motion (11) of the motion element (4) is proposed, which comprises an object-detection mechanism for locating an object in a region of the motion element (4), wherein said mechanism can be blocked for object recognition by a motion of the motion element (4), and an electronic unit by which the motion of the motion element (4) can be controlled and which is designed to associate a blocked state with the object-detection mechanism when the motion element (4) approaches, an object or motion element triggering no safety mode in said blocked state, wherein shut-off means are provided which transfer at least part of the object-detection mechanism to the blocked state on detection of a shut-off signal coming from the motion element (4). According to the invention, the shut-off means comprise a transmission element for a shut-off signal, which either sits directly on the motion element or which is attuned to a separate optical reflector on the motion element (4) such that a signal of the transmission element can be received by a receiver of the shut-off means only in a pre-defined area of motion of the reflector on the motion element (4).
