Abstract

Each consumer is provided with a meter for recording the number of units of electricity which have been used, and which responds to a signal transmitted to a radio receiver adjacent the meter, to transfer the meter reading in coded form to a card which is sent to a central station. The radio receiver (2) pref. responds to control signals in the audio frequency range, transmitted to the receiver (2) from a transmitter (3) at the central station, via the supply network, and provides a control signal for the meter (1), causing the coded data to be printed by the latter onto an inserted card e.g. with a magnetic or photosensitive layer for receiving the data.

: Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Verfahren zur Meßdatenregi- ; strierung von Elektriζitätszählern und findet Anwendung bei der j Messung elektrischen Energieverbrauches in Stromversorgungs-: The invention relates to a method for measuring data regi-; stration of electricity meters and is used in j Measurement of electrical energy consumption in power supply

i netzen.i networks.

j Die Messung des elektrischen Energieverbrauches wird heute fast \ ausnahmslos mit mechanischen Elektrizitätszählern vorgenommen, j Die Meßwertanzeige erfolgt kumulierend mit Hilfe von mechanij sehen Rollenzählern. Diese müssen zur Kostenberechnung der veri brauchten Energie in zeitlichen Perioden abgelesen werden. Den I mechanischen Zählvorrichtungen haftet der Nachteil des VerschMßes und der dauernden Wartung an. |j The measurement of electrical energy consumption is made today almost \ exception with electricity meters, j, the measured values are displayed cumulatively using see mechanij role counters. These must be read off in time periods to calculate the cost of the energy consumed. D e n I mechanical counting devices the disadvantage of the VerschMßes and permanent maintenance is adhered to. |

Da sich diese Zähler beim Verbraucher befinden und diese über das ganze Versorgungsgebiet verstreut sind, ist die Ablesung mit großen Kosten verbunden. Ferner ist die Fehlerwahrscheinlichkeit durch mehrfache Übertragung der Meßdaten, angefangen vom Ablesen bis zur Lochkarteneingabe in der Abrechnung, sehr groß. ;Since these counters are the consumer and these rsorgungsgebiet over the V e are scattered, the reading is associated with great cost. Furthermore, the probability of errors due to multiple transmission of the measurement data, from reading to entry of punched cards in the accounting, is very high. ;

j Aus Kostengründen gehen die Energieversorgungsunternehmen heu-I te mehr und mehr dazu über, den Verbrauch über mehrere Zeitperioden zu schätzen und diesen Schätzwert zu berechnen und erst in größeren Zeitabständen z.B. jährlich abzulesen. Es sind auch Verfahren bekannt, bei denen der Kunde selbst den Zählerstand abliest und diesen Wert dem Energieversorgungsunternehmen mitteilt. Alle diese Verfahren sind jedoch sehr auf-j For cost reasons, the energy supply companies go heu-I te more and more to estimate the consumption over several time periods and to calculate this estimated value and can only be read at longer intervals, e.g. annually. There are also known methods in which the customer himself the Reads the meter reading and reports this value to the energy supply company. However, all of these procedures are very

wendig und sehr unsicher.agile and very insecure.

Es ist deshalb Aufgabe der Erfindung, ein Verfahren zu finden, das einerseits die Ablese- und Datenübermittlungskosten auf ein Minimum beschränkt und andererseits ein Minimum an Fehlerwahrscheinlichkeit beim Ablesen und bei der Übermittlung der Daten bis zur Abrechnung bietet.It is therefore the object of the invention to find a method which, on the one hand, reduces the costs of reading and data transmission to one Minimum limited and, on the other hand, a minimum of error probability when reading and transmitting the data up to billing.

Erfindungsgemäß wird dies dadurch erreicht, daß auf ein Auslösesignal hin die im Elektrizitätszähler gespeicherten Meßdaten auf einen Datenträger übertragen und dem Energleversorgungsunternehmen zugeführt werden.According to the invention this is achieved in that there is a trigger signal to transfer the measurement data stored in the electricity meter to a data carrier and to the energy supply company are fed.

Die Meßdaten können in codierter Form übertragen werden. Das
Auslösesignal für die Meßwertausgabe erfolgt manuell am Zähler oder über eine Fernsteuerung. In Ausgestaltung des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens besteht der Datenträger aus einer druck-
oder strahlungsempfindlichen Schicht, einer Magnetschicht, aus Registrierpapier oder einem Formular. Der Datenträger kann
auch auf eine Karte aufgebracht sein, die zum Versand geeignet ist.
The measurement data can be transmitted in coded form. That
The trigger signal for the output of measured values occurs manually on the counter or via a remote control. In an embodiment of the method according to the invention, the data carrier consists of a print
or radiation-sensitive layer, a magnetic layer, made of recording paper or a form. The disk can
also be applied to a card that is suitable for shipping.

Vorteilhaft nach dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren ist besonders die drastische Reduzierung der Ablese- und Datenübermittlungskosten, was zu erheblichen Kostensenkungen führt. Außerdem wird die Sicherheit der Meßdatenübermittlung durch Wegfall mehrerer Umsetζvorgänge wie z.B. Ablesen, Aufschreiben, Tabellieren und EDV-Aufbereitung stark erhöht. . ■The drastic reduction of the reading and data transmission costs is particularly advantageous according to the method according to the invention, which leads to considerable cost reductions. Also will the security of the transmission of measured data by eliminating several conversion processes such as reading, writing, tabulating and EDP processing increased significantly. . ■

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens ist
nachstehend anhand der Zeichnung näher erläutert.
An embodiment of the method according to the invention is
explained in more detail below with reference to the drawing.

In einem Elektrizitätszähler 1 ist eine Öffnung zur Entnahme
der Karte mit den gespeicherten Meßdaten vorhanden. In einem
neben dem Zähler 1 angeordneten Rundsteuerempfänger 2 wird
In an electricity meter 1 there is an opening for removal
on the card with the saved measurement data. In one
next to the counter 1 arranged ripple control receiver 2 is

- 3 -5098^6/05:36- 3 -5098 ^ 6/05: 36

nach der Ausselektion der empfangenen Signale ein Auslösesignal auf den Zähler 1 gegeben, um dadurch die Meßwertausgabe zu veranlassen. Der Rundsteuerempfänger 2 wird in bekannter Weise mit Befehlen im Tonfrequenzbereich über das Energieversorgungsnetz (Mittel- und Niederspannung) angesteuert. Zu diesem Zweck ist in der Zentrale des Energieversorgungsunternehmens ein Rundsteuersender 3 angeordnet, der durch eine Befehlseingabe 4 angesteuert wird, und seine Impulse der Netzfrequenz überlagert.After the received signals have been selected, a trigger signal is sent to the counter 1, thereby causing the measured value to be output. The ripple control receiver 2 is controlled in a known manner with commands in the audio frequency range via the power supply network (medium and low voltage). For this purpose, a ripple control transmitter 3 is arranged in the center of the energy supply company, which is controlled by a command input 4 and its pulses are superimposed on the network frequency.

Der Zähler 1 hat einen kumulierenden Zähler, der laufend den Energieverbrauch registriert und auf ein bestimmtes Auslösesignal hin den Augenblickswert ausgibt. Dieser Wert wird auf eine mit einem Datenträger versehene Karte gespeichert und dem Kunden durch den Zähler 1 ausgegeben.The counter 1 has a cumulative counter that continuously registers the energy consumption and responds to a specific trigger signal outputs the instantaneous value. This value is based on a card provided with a data carrier is stored and issued to the customer by the counter 1.

Denkbar ist ebenfalls, den Druckvorgang am Zähler optisch oder akustisch anzuzeigen. Zu diesem Zweck wird mit dem Auslösesignal ein Lämpchen bzw. Summer im Zähler 1 zum Ansprechen gebracht .It is also conceivable to indicate the printing process on the counter optically or acoustically. For this purpose, the trigger signal is used a light or buzzer in counter 1 was activated.

Zu einem bestimmten Termin erhält somit der Kunde von dem Energieversorgungsunternehmen über die Rundsteueranlage den Auftrag, die Karte dem Zähler 1 zu entnehmen und an das AbrechnungsZentrum 5 abzusenden.The customer receives from the energy supply company on a specific date the order via the ripple control system to remove the card from meter 1 and to the billing center 5 to be sent.

Eine Anwendung des Verfahrens bei nichtvorhandener Rundsteueranlage ist dergestalt möglich, daß der Kunde zu einem bestimmten Termin, beispielsweise am Monatsende, die Druckvorrichtung des Zählers betätigt und die ausgegebene Karte entgegennimmt.An application of the method in the absence of a ripple control system is possible in such a way that the customer at a certain date, for example at the end of the month, the printing device of the counter and accepts the issued card.

Mit den ausgegebenen Meßdaten in Form von versandüblichen Karten wird die Information durch den Kunden über den Postweg an das Energieversorgungsunternehmen gesandt. Hier, erfolgt die entsprechende Auswertung in einem Abrechnungszentrum 5f wodurchWith the output measurement data in the form of customary postage cards, the information is sent by the customer to the energy supply company by post. Here, the corresponding evaluation takes place in a billing center 5 f as a result
